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.
Why would you be worried about Ronaldo's minutes? Unless United are winning 2-0 he's not coming off..... and if it's 2-0, there's a decent chance he's scored 1 of them, so....
I was gonna drop him for Lukaku for sure this week, but not actually sure, Lukaku's more frustrating... so I'm likely just gonna go with 2 of their defenders for now. Maybe Mount once back, he'll always play and is dropping at the moment.
Ramsdale-Sanchez (prepping for bench boost here, super long term!)
Rudiger-Alonso-Livra-Cancelo-Arsenal defender undecided
Salah-Gray-Gallagher-Raphinha-Saka
Ronaldo-ASM-Scarlett
ATM - 4.4 in the bank due to swapping out TAA for now....

feck it. I'm punting it with Alonso.
The who's who of dross right thereI don't. I've got Ayling Amartey and Brownhill.
If you got money, and want to take a one week punt, surely Cancelo v Liverpool isn't that exciting?
Couldn't you upgrade Brownhill to like Saka or something interesting like that?
No. No money to upgrade the duds and would have had to play 3 def minimum anyway and I have two available so it was always gonna be a defender. Went with Alonso. Congrats Chilwell owners.The who's who of dross right there

I'll be nervously checking the team sheet on your behalf.
exact same team as mine apart from Toney.
Think I'm wimping out of the Alonso pick and going with the safer Azpi now just
Saka or Rapinha.
Rapinha seems to have the better run of games.
What do you all think?

I made the fatal mistake of taking out Raphinha last week. Got punished. I deserved it. Won't happen ever again.
Ergh, the wildcard looks like getting much more expensive over night.
Selling Shaw instead of Trent on Wednesday night feels like a real error now too, especially if I do end up wildcarding next week.
Ronaldo is gonna punish all you sellers… hard.
Yeah I was leaning towards Rapinha the whole time so I've stuck with him.
You can't have both?
Nah I've also got Salah, Benrahma, Sarr and then Luis on the bench
Wait to avoid the hit and lost 0,1 on Shaw and saw Rudiger go up 0,1 too. Sometimes it’s just better to take the hit!
Wait until tomorrow afternoon before making that statement maybe.
Ronaldo Captain 
I’ve chosen to just believe in Ronaldo. Also Chelsea aren’t very creative right now and Southampton can be tough to break down as shown in games against United and City.
Yeah same. It’s Ronaldo ffs. Can’t believe people are transferring him out!
I think Ronnie will score 2 tomorrow.
Similar to mine, although I’ve kept Ronaldo in for Toney and shifted out Trent.
How does yours look exactly? Wasn't that keen on any I came up with that had both Ron and Rom in. Felt like I was making too many sacrifices elsewhere.
Need to pick 2 out of Saka Sarr and Benrahma on a WC.
Pick Saka as one of them imo. Ride the fixtures
Salah, Ronaldo or Antonio as captain? I really need to get it right this week.
I’m getting rid of Benrahma on my WC next week…dunno if that helps you.
Sarr has terrible fixtures coming up. I'd be lookin to bring Saka in for him very soon
Any leaks yet regarding Ronaldo? I'm on a WC currently without Lukaku and the armband on Ronny. Got a nagging feeling he will get reated.
Antonio is my man.
Ramsdale Ward
Cancelo Rudiger Tomiyasu Christiansen Livramento
Salah Saka Raphinha Douglas Luiz Brownhill
Ronaldo Lukaku Antonio
Plan would be to shift out one of the strikers in a few weeks’ time for Trent and use the surplus to strengthen up any weak spots. My only concerns are rotation risk in defence and triple Arsenal but reckon I get away with that for 3-4 weeks before refreshing again.

I haven’t taken a single hit so far this season. Had a much more valuable team at this stage last year though. Hard to tell which is better
Activated my WC this week
Ramsdale
Rudiger - Christensen - Cancelo - TAA
Raphinha - Saka - Salah
Lukaku (C) - Antonio - Jimenez
Bench - Foster Brownhill Gallagher Livatamento
Tried to keep Ronaldo in somehow but just wasn't working out

Most difficult WC I can remember, honestly just want the deadline to arrive. Final draft:
Ramsdale Foster
Cancelo Rudiger Alonso Tomiyasu Liveramento
Salah Sarr Saka Raphinha Gallagher
ASM Antonio Ronaldo
Next week I'll go Sarr to Brownhill and I'll have 3.4 to get Lukaku in for ASM for a hit in GW 9. Will be looking to bring back TAA somewhere between gameweeks 10-13. Thoughts?

Who to replace Ayling with?
I have 5.1 to spend and my other defenders are
Alonso - duffy - livramemto - williams
I’m thinking Tierney, Semedo or maybe even Firpo, but I can’t make up my mind.
Any tips?

Tierney
I wouldn't be wanting to book in transfers and especially hits so soon after playing a WC
Yes definitely beers
Glad I didn't change anything.Good point. I probably could have brought him in for Sarr before the price rise. I'll probably do that for next game week.
I like the look of it but you’ll 100% want TAA back.
Also think every Ronaldo and Lukaku team ends up missing out massively elsewhere
