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.
When in doubt, give it to Salah.
I am just fearing a late sub on from him. It all depend on the results. If they need a goal they will not bring him on.
If they guard a results then I think he will be on for the other wingback they have Marcal most likely.
Typical Wolves would be a 1-0 or 2-1 lead after 80 minutes with a defensive sub on.
One of the first two.
Seeing as he doesn't even go up for them, he'll have to cnut it in from 50 yards.
My most expensive Def is a 4.5
I don't see why he'd not start considering he's been playing nearly all their matches since last season whereas Kilman has only played a handful.
I wanted to wait this week but the Castagne injury forced my hand. But as I said, he's an easy transfer out if he loses his place.
My butt is gonna be twitching as I read the lineup at 7 though
I thought he would be nailed too as one of 3 central defenders, but Kilman has done so well now.I don't see why he'd not start considering he's been playing nearly all their matches since last season whereas Kilman has only played a handful.

I didn't watch Wolves last week though, but against Leeds I thought Saiss played very well.
Is there any problem with my leaving Rodriguez in my starting line up on the chance that Ancelotti is winding us up again?
Brewster will come on for him anyway.

He could be a late sub I guess. Very little risk either way. I am sure he is out.
I just took a -8 to take James Rodrigues and grealish out for Rashford and Jorginho. Hopefully Rash can keep going!
Forced into a -8 And ended up with a salah, Bruno, Rashford and son midfield. Feck it
It's because of you we won't get a shot on target against Arsenal now.
More than likely. But at least salah and son will get injured
James injury messed up my plans, had to use a transfer and swap him out for Grealish as my bench options are really shite this week.
That's my midfield now too.
With Castagne and Rodriguez out I bit the bullet and downgraded the defence with Kilman to bring in Rashford but feck it I'm going 343
Still yet to use a transfer...
Edit: Last second did Stephens to Riedewald to have a 4.4 mid more likely playing. Literally the only time I’ve ever felt making a free change might make things worse.

Threw Foden in for Rodriguez.
Least that takes away that no City niggle.
Cost me 0.2m value but Rod is going down overnight anyway and three others in my team are going up so it balances.

A panicked Zaha in for Rodriguez transfer as much as I'd have loved Rashford some way. Not a player I'm used to owning and not overly thrilled about it but will see how it goes
Same.
Had to go Zouma over Chilwell rotation fears.
Kind of hate it, as I much more wanted Chilwell's attacking returns.
Keeping James though. Nice fixture list coming up, and United are not impossible to get points against.

I was 0.1 short of Trent and Podence > Chilwell > Grealish. No way I could just do Trent to Chilwell this week.
Chilwell's nailed. Nothing to worry about.
FFScout opted for Zouma due to rotationfears. Apparently Chilwell looked a bit knackered midweek
Saiss benched. Looks like he can be another to possibly move on soon and take the profit from. Not a great start! Hopefully Podence and Jimmy can deliver.
Saiss benched
You were right, Saiss benched
A good defensive performance from Wolves here, and that's Saiss out, locked.
Brought in Kilman this week to double with Saiss, on the basis that at least one would play. Guess Saiss will be leaving my team next.
Lucikly there are plenty of options at that price.

With Marcal out. That is not good news for him if they have another wingback playing too. If Kilman plays well then he might be the one to get as a budget option.You were right, Saiss benched
It is a concern for my plans this even if I benched him for this week. I want to use transfers on my attackers and not on defenders.
Wolves have a really tough run of fixtures for a while. But I guess youl move saiss out
I just feel annoyed of wasting a transfer to bring Saiss in and now I have to waste ANOTHER transfer to get him out
I'll leave one more week then take out Saiss for Kilman and either Son for Bruno or Rodriguez for Rashford...
fecking pissed
Exactly. And even with a tough run of fixtures, I'm happy to keep Kilman as a 4.1m defender knocking around my bench. Especially given Wolves' typical M.O. is to grind out wins in low-scoring games.
What a moronic decision to get Steer as the second keeper. I really want Konsa and I already have Grealish and Martinez. The thought of the 3 players per team never crossed my mind when making that sub.
I was actually going to get Kilman and moved for Konsa instead! I like villas fixtures
Team not looking great for next week. Tough fixtures for City, Pool, United, Everton and Villa. Wolves facing Leicester too which is hardly a gimme. Spurs v West Brom gonna be a heavily captained fixture.
Feels like you have double bad luck. Castagne out then getting Saiss and then another one. Two transfers wasted when you could have just stuck with Castagne if not for the injury.I just feel annoyed of wasting a transfer to bring Saiss in and now I have to waste ANOTHER transfer to get him out

Yep, their fixtures look good for the rest of the year, don't think you'll go far wrong with Konsa. I got Targett in last week and Grealish in this week for that reason. They're a decent team too, or at least a cut above this year's relegation battlers.
That’s frustrating. I brought Zouma in for a different defender yesterday, so I’ve got Saiss and Mitchell not playing in defence now. Already know I need to move out Mitro after this gameweek too.
Quite happy about Saiss as I forgot to take out Rodriguez and didn't want the double Wolves defence. Hopefully Maupay can score after or before he cries against Spurs.
