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.
This may well be true. But regardless of the circumstances, I can’t see how a manager can be criticised for taking a post-season break. He can’t just roll into the next day at a new club and just work two years consecutively.
I think he'll be a success. I mean, he's as modern as it gets, no? No one can complain that the club didn't hire a coach who plays modern football.
Good news.
Surprised though, with Gary Neville telling us ETH wouldn't fancy the job.

Neville wants Poch.
Steve McClaren believes "five or six Manchester United players don't deserve to wear the shirt." - YouTube
Interview with McClaren in March, completely agree with what he said.

Great news. Nowadays there's a drone for cones. No need for him anymore.
Here we go again.
The problem isn't the manager. These players won't put the work in for this guy either.

Will Steve be given his own short shorts to wear?
The most excited about the club I've been since SAF left.
Both for us appointing a proper coach at the right time, and the assurances he has reportedly demanded in order to take the job.

Ole was given all the slack in the world.....
Awesome. Only way is up.
Watch they beard turn full white in a year or so
Oh I quite agree. And I don’t blame Moyes for taking a holiday; while I never wanted him as manager it obviously wasn’t remotely his fault that the transition was so badly planned.
They'll be sent packing or banished to the bench then, simple as that.
Pretty certain that he'll be working with a much different squad over the next year
Wanted Poch but absolutely no problems with ETH. First time in many years I'm looking forward to the start of next season. Only taken a decade.
That was the quickest turn around in the history of appointments, or someone made some shit up for a quick story
Was Phelan a coach? In SAF’s final years he seemed more an admin/HR manager. That’s not intended to belittle his role, which obviously was an important one.
If ETH wants McClaren then fine. If he’s being forced on him by the club then no.
Seems that everyone Ralf has called out is getting the bullet
So, genuine question as someone who knows nothing about him.
Am I right in saying he’s better than Pep and Klopp?

The club seem to be heading in the right direction. But after so many years of failure, I’ll choose to remain cautiously optimistic and nothing else. Good luck to him, hope he brings back the United of old. Or even better, takes it to even greater heights.
Best of luck to him. I like his personality and the way he wants his team to play.
I truly hope he will be backed properly to do what he wants.

I'm not sure why you're replying to me or what your point is.
I said the club was in a mess. I said it was rebuild situation. If on about "attitude", I meant on the pitch... as a season ticket holder, I never saw that team get walked over like this squad has been. Lose yes. Walked over and give up, no.
As someone who also know's very little about Ten Hag, I would suggest you downplay your expectations about 10 levels
Scathing from Steve'o that, but he's not wrong. Hopefully he can help Ten Hag be ruthless with the clear out
I’m not getting carried away - just the double next year would be fine,
Easy, that's given I think
imagine being the manager that turns this clubs around. That’s exactly why.
he will believe in himself, he will back himself.

The club wants Ten Hag to assess the current backroom staff..?
Weird isn’t it, the club want a manager to actually look at the options before firing a load of people. How bizarre, classy move would be to just wholesale fire everyone.
Who ever is against him getting the staff he wants are the idiots ruining club.
Chris Wheeler.
I know there is only one Roy Keane.
Hope ten Hag gets an enforcer almost like him in.
That will put the fear of God into all our rivals.

Isn't that what usually happens when you get managerial changes? Anyway, everyone Ralf brought with him is on a temporary deal. Who's going to be left in a month or so?
I just see this as a precursor to the club wanting to give Ten Hag 'time to assess the players', the club then failing to sell players everyone can see it needs to, the season starting with a manager who wants to press and a squad incapable of pressing.
Great news!
Very exciting appointment
Players must get on board the Hag train or feck off from the club.
Club must give him the assistants that he wants , dont force anybody on him.
Cant wait for next season.

I think the current set up would compliment a Keano as a coach but he said himself he hates the coaching, he prefers the managing.
OranjeCafe?
Everyone can see that what McClaren has said is a truth that the players can't hide from any more, because they been exposed for what they are:
They are gutless and not up for any fight. They possess the horrendous trait of 'downing tools'.
We know it is all well and good McClaren saying it from the outside looking in, but now that McClaren will be part of the coaching staff, he ABSOLUTELY HAS TO address the toxicity within that squad of players.
In any case Keano would approve of all these appointments so far.
I do expect a positive reaction from the players Saturday.
Is there a change Ten Hag brings in a new fitness coach? Our current one is fecking useless.
