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.
Ah here, it wouldn't last long enough.
It’s unedifying to watch, but he speaks the truth. Alex Ferguson was a very successful manager for us, but that’s the top and bottom of it. He isn’t above criticism and we know that he was a nepotistic bully. As for Roy Keane, well, he’s a maniac, always was, always will be.

, watching them both play on the same pitch.United were on fire that day with Giggs and Cantona being on top form, and the Robson & Keane pairing dominating the engine room. Keane put on a typical barnstorming B2B performance, which he topped off with a cracking opener from outside the box.
Robson played a relatively more reserved role - his passing was uncharacteristically a tad bit off at times, but it was an excellent all round performance, with United absolutely bossing the midfield.
If Robbo was five years younger

Robson what a player. Is there anything he can't do?

Yeah, he was 36 during this match. It'd have been something else, watching him and Keane playing together at their peaks.
Thank you for posting this. Beautiful game, lot of energy, old school.

watching Keane and Ince boss midfields that 1993/94 season was something else
Keane all over the place there, beast of a player. The sight of him charging forward with the ball is just

Commentary reminds me of when we used to get Saturday 3pm kick-offs live in the 90s on RTE.
That was a 3pm game I’d say , I’ll always remember the Sheffield Wednesday game been shown!
Surprised it was Souness that pointed out VVD was missing for the 7-2 against Villa.
Just heard the rumour than Keano could be next manager of Celtic - that would be fun (especially if Slippy hasn't moved on to Liverpool yet!)
Just on the topic of Keane the manager, has he ever spoken about the type of football he'd want his teams to play?
Just before his Forest debut Clough said to Keane “you can control the ball, you can pass the ball and you can run. Just go out and do those 3 things”. That simplicity is what Keane did so well all his career and it amazes me how many professional football aren’t able to do these basics (see Lukaku for control, Fred for passing and Martial for running)
If they want box office they will go Keane. If they are serious about rebuilding Celtic, then they would go for someone else.
You are welcome.
Redknapps face at the end 
Jamie chopping at the bait...
I bet Keano was pissing himself inside. He holds such a great straight-face.
Both end up looking like idiots. Funny though.
Hilarious the top comment to that as well is brilliant.
Keane is right though, just because you're an international, doesn't mean you're a great player.

Classic Keane. Managing to slate most of the league effortlessly.
Not sure why Redknapp was so invested there.

It was! I would love to have it right now!
Winning.
Couldn't hear sections of Keane's comments there but my dog's ears pricked up.
Redknapp says they have a good squad then he goes on to rip most of their defenders.
I can't imagine him worrying too much about tactics.
Work hard, show PASHUN and the result will take care of itself.
Retributive.
I dont get why Redknapp was getting so worked up and invested in Spurs.
Is it because he wants to say the players are so good, but Jose is so bad? Only thing I can think of.

Poor old Jamie got rattled
Brilliant. Jamie was in tears.
Redknapp’s lost it! “Reguilon, what about Reguilon!” Roy kills me I swear, why is Redknapp getting so heated!!
Nice warmup for today
Things were never this bad under his dad.
The way he destroyed Docherty
You could tell he wanted to say "He played for Wolves and Ireland"

Just take a breath Jamie
.Came on and put a corner in??? The look on his face when he said that, amazing
