What does he know? He's a washed up manager (according to the armchair managers on here).

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

Yup, said something similar.We're gonna win this btw... Believe.Smalling Maguire partnership is still our best defensively.
That's because we have no idea what to do when in possession. We look decent without it. Shsame that's only about 30% of the time. This looks like Moyes all over again.
Ole has messed this up, why is Lingard playing as a 10 when a three man midfield provides us much more positive contribution from central midfield. It also allows Pogba to play further forward, Pogba doesn't work in a double pivot midfield. It's one thing doing it with Kante / Matuidi and another doing it with Scott. Ole has got to stop using this inverted 4231 formation. We don't have the players for it.A disappointing first half for a variety of reasons. Namely being a goal down, losing Luke Shaw to injury and just generally being far too slow in possession against organised defences. I feared this would happen as Palace are probably the closest thing to Wolves in how they play and that is probably what we struggle against most (bar the obvious Man City/Liverpool being vastly superior to us or whatever). Jesse Lingard has been trusted time and again in that no.10 position to unlock the door but he seems incapable of it, so we may have to try Mata there in the second half.
Despite this, I do fully believe that Gary Cahill should have been sent off and VAR should be allowed to overturn the referee on such a call if they aren't. We shouldn't be looking for excuses against Crystal Palace at home though, however valid they are. We have to be winning this game and upping the tempo in the second half.
If Ole turned on the hairdryer the only thing I'd expect him to do is dry my hair.Lingard second half hattrick incoming.We need to have a player on the pitch capable of game management. We're giving away stupid fouls, not b*tcing at the ref for every long goal kick, feigning injury and so forth.
We can't build up a head of steam if we let them dictate the pace. But no one appears willing to step up and manage that.
It's a hot day, we're going to have the ball, we need to keep playing with posession and tire them out.
Yeah but we are the negative ones.
Not unlucky at all. Why is Shaw not subbed right away if his hammy's gone? fecking joke to let him stay on since everyone knows that you don't recover by rubbing the magic sponge on it, and it contributes to the goal.
It's the small things with regards to management that pisses me off. Why let Shaw decide whether he can play on when his hamstring's gone? Young was already ready to come on.
Been like it for years. Its Pogba and nobody.
He’ll be back in the team come October like every other season we try to replace him.
Pretty well summed up. Just shows the dross we are carrying in our squad.
Cause their first touch/shot in our box is a one on one scenario thanks to our Swedish centre back.We can't create shit, which is not surprising considering that Lingard has done feck all as usual and James looks way over his head at this level.This game could really use Gomes.
He literally couldn't miss, De Gea was helpless.
What do we know!!!No subs. DID YOU SEE THAT PRESS FROM JESSE ON THAT KICK-OFF THOUGH?!Didn't we concede a simmilar goal last season against Huddersfield (Lindelof made the same mistake)?
It's just bad management really. A counter attacking selection against a low block.Lukaku would be good for todays match. But he is not good for our style i guess.
That Ayew was very easy though. Like a pen
Yeah it had an impact. Take no risk, just sub the playerThis is the kind of game you start with Mata or Gomes with.
If we are relying on Dan James and Lindgard as first choice, god forbids our chance of top 4.Tricky player like Gomes is the sort of person we need facing this defence.
Oh we are winning the FA Cup then!fecking hell, he finds a yellow there? Another twat in black. Palace should've had another four yellows in the first half if that's the standard.Ole will put Greenwood on in the 85th minute again.
It speaks to a lack of leadership, unfortunately.
A big part of the caf admits it and always has. The chuckle brother thing isn't universal.
I never considered that. I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt because it did seem weird at the time. I don't think anyone would've expected Lindelof to lose a header as easily as that.Second-half kick-off
Wait til the League cup/FA cup, when it really matters. Our only hope for a trophySecond-half kick-off
No changes at the break.
I will be pissed.Ole will put Greenwood on in the 85th minute again.
How is that even a knee jerk reaction at all? Lindelof's known weakness is in the air.
And this is coming from a fan of his.
Is it that important? It's not like we're carving Palace open because we've got two 'ball playing' centre backs. We're losing because one of them is a weak defender.Players who should be squad players are now key players while players who's shit are still here. Then we're surprised while we're not getting results.
The manager has said that this process will take several transfer windows to correct.
Im waiting for Pogba to do something Pogba does and score a beauty- Status
