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.
My confidence has dropped a bit seeing the line up. Not as worried about Konate but no Fabinho is a blow.
What I like about him is that he is a player who is exploiting the max of his talent.
Oh and this’ll be the day Milner finally gets his red.
Konate to concede a pen
he wont even get a booking
Feels like about 30 years ago since he arrived as a footballer.
Whatever happens today, we’ll beat Spurs next week. They’re so poor.
They are awful. Can't even say it is the Thursday football for most of them.
Same, Fabinho is integral, and that midfield is going to leave huge spaces on a massive pitch. The front three is less of a concern as Jota is a fine deputy and Mane can come on later. However Konate over Gomez is odd. The midfield though..we’re missing our two best in Fabinho and Thiago and this is the kinda game you need them for.
Leicester has controlled the game well after the lead.
Are Spurs actually trying to score or see how quickly they can put people to sleep?
Why not Mane today?
Our midfield has been cut through like a hot knife through butter all season long.
Didn’t spurs rest their whole team midweek? Jokers
Kane’s defending for that goal was terrible 
Brentford giving a good account of themselves again as well.

The state of NBC fanzone thing. Cringey beyond belief.
And we could have done that with ease with those two on the field. The recovery pace of Keita and Milner is comical and Henderson has been poor most of the season. Milner is playing his third game in a week.
All three will need their best off the ball performances of the season otherwise you’ll cut through us like butter.

Watching Harry Jane's marking of Antonio is hilarious.
Looks like he's trying to walk him down the aisle.

Nah, we love giving struggling teams a much needed win. See Leicester the other week.

This fixture is annoyingly the one we always seem to have important players missing for. Klopp knows a thing or two more than me so hoping there’s a plan.

Brentford running out of steam. They could be struggling by the end of the season.
No matter where, no matter how. Glaston gonna Glaston.GlastonSpur getting murdered over at The Fighting Cock forum
Nervous now without Fab, we’ll need to score something like 4 goals if we are going to win this, midfield scares me.
Sure feels like a United win is in the air..
Yep hit it long and chase since we play a high line. Simple if you execute it. Caught on a counter if you don’t.

What happened to Glaston? I enjoyed reading his bizzare wums hereGlastonSpur getting murdered over at The Fighting Cock forum
Spurs got rid of Jose to hire a Jose clone with no trophies? Zero shots the whole second half by Spurs.
You generally can get a little leeway if you play swasbuckling football but come up short at the final hurdle. Fans wont have it if you are playing ultra defensive boring football looking for 0-0 draws or to sneak a goal and you lose.
Spurs have lost every derby match this season no? Got battered by Arsenal and are at a gd of -3 or something. Nuno could go if the next match is poor and ends in defeat.

wait he's surfaced?GlastonSpur getting murdered over at The Fighting Cock forum
this I've got to see....
Oh yeah, he's very much active on The Fighting Cock
Defending Nuno doggedlyI think it’s Rashford and Greenwood stretching us which really concerns me. It’s not as much of an issue on Robertson’s side but the space will be there for Rashford to exploit if United get it right.
Surprised they left Pogba out as his range of passing would be ideal for a game against us.

Wonder who was next one down on their list for manager.
Has Konate played much, that's a surprise for me Gomez hasn't come in.
Yeah Liverpool team for a few reasons isn't as strong as it could be so can see 2-2 draw.

Would feel so much more confident with Fabinho in there. Damm
He’s played two or three games I think. One league game against Palace so far.
Gomez will come in for TAA if we’re winning. Here we go
