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 the score was 6-3, being dominated, with no hope for any point. Like, what was actually the purpose?
Anyway, that was possibly the most expensive 3 minutes for any footballer, that cost him 1 million. He should've just came in and jogged around, like Rashford did last season against City, and most would just forgot about it.

Don't worry, at the age of 50, there'd still be excuses for him. Like time does not catch up to everyone.
I want a super-model wife too but I doubt it would happen. Who in the CL would pick him up, mid-season though with no -transfer fee, it does help his chances.
Benfica?

He quite possibly just sank our Europa campaign and is still talking about playing CL football.
Funny how he always gets his whole family involved in his bullshit, mother, sister, kids, I'm surprised he hasn't brought up that his grand ma would rotate in her grave if she could see how EtH is treating him.
Thats because he's a family man.
Its the quickest way to get sympathy. How many times have you heard your co worker taking a day off because his grandma has died for the 8th times this year?
It amuses me how everyone took ten Hag for his word with the whole 'not bringing him on against City out of respect for his career' shtick. That was complete and utter nonsense. Ten Hag was doing him a kindness and trying to be diplomatic because he knew that Ronaldo was a sensitive little soul and that the media would be salivating if he told the actual truth. The actual truth being that there was absolutely no desire to bring the player on in that game as he is absolutely useless. Martial was already subbed on in preference to him.
100% agreed. ETH was just being diplomatic about it. It's obvious Ronaldo was shit and (most likely) wouldn't do much in that game. Although i don't know ETH's purpose on brought him in with 3 minutes left on that 6-3 City dominated game. It was useless thing to do. Although Ronaldo should just come in and did whatever the feck he was told to do.

I can see how it would look that way. But that's not what was actually happening.
You are just trying to set up a trap which doesn’t even exist
but whatever.With Maguire at the back and the entire team misfiring, do you genuinely believe this?
Yeah I do. I think he was the reason they were misfiring. A stronger coach could have prevented it. But a stronger coach would never have allowed him through the door. That's why ETH leaves him on the bench until he explodes and sacks himself.
The reason Maguire was misfiring? Crazy.
It’s the most craziest to continue to lecture people here how great Ronaldo has always been.
ETH could have subbed him on late for any reason. We played well, maybe he saw an opportunity to bed CR into a setup that was actually functional, maybe he knew we would go aerial in the final minutes and thought CR was our best bet on converting, maybe it was a loyalty test.
If none of these do it for you then take solace in knowing the manager needs feck all justification to bring on a bench option anyway so can stop asking already. Does anyone remember having any discussion about late subs being disrespectful? No one would have even seen it that way if he didn't turn it into an affair.
Even if the player didn't like it proper procedure would have been to come on but raise issue after the game behind closed doors. Can't believe people are even sympathising his rationale. His reaction guaranteed the relationship could never go back to normal. Basically he had little right to complain but even if there was it should have been done after the game.

There was a thread with an OP named Raja or smth like that and he was absolutely right about everything. But he was abused terribly. Poor guy.
Hey there Niki Lauda
And the onus, in any case, would be for Ronaldo to mitigate any potential losses
If you put together all the reasons why he was giving that interview, he surely is the biggest cnut in football
I actually believe by Ronaldo doing this he’s done us a massive favour.
He’s done to me at UTD.
However, by throwing his toys out the pram like this, the club need to invest in facilities and they now need to go hard in the transfer market to divert the attention elsewhere both in terms of squad harmony and in terms of keeping the fans happy. Win/win thank you bugs bunny.
Can we now promote Bruno back to free kick taker, we might actually score some rather than see Ronaldo hog them all, do a stupid run up and blast it over the bar.

It was very predictable that as soon as he wasn't first choice we were going to have a problem. We didn't even need him going into last season and many of us said as much. It was disastrous planning.
When we didn't get rid this summer, a big fall out could be seen coming a mile off.
Chelsea, allegedly. Although they almost certainly won’t be in it next year so the fun and games would start all over again in the summer.
If I was Potter I would only agree to it if he has preseason to figure out how to fit The Betrayed One into his new system.
Otherwise I can't see Potter lasting the season
Feck it, I hope to join a CL team as well. I’m only a few months older than Ronaldo so fingers crossed
It didn't.
He was pretty no existent in terms of pressing, hold up, link up last season as well, anyone who would've actually taken the time to analysed his game beyond looking at the scoresheet would've noticed that. On top of that he wasn''t even scoring at an exceptional rate like Haaland either (TBH in his entire career, he never was), his conversion rate is pretty run of the mill. He was just being force fed a ton of chances (to the detriment of basically all our other attacking players).
Please don't talk like last season he was playing like some prime Barca Messi and suddenly became a plank of wood this season, that's just simply not true. He lost the only thing he had going for him; which is his (very average) conversion rate.
In what way?
Do you reckon he's been treated with a stronger hand than any other player would've been?
Can he go to the MLS without getting arrested?
I thought the case was thrown out? Or did he pay her off?
Dunno.. I had just assumed we didnt go to the US for pre season because he couldnt go (he went missing anyway, but the planning wouldve been done around this time last year)
The case was dismissed some time ago. It’s just that some Messi fans on social media started and perpetuated the idea that he couldn’t go to America which then got lapped up by everyone who didn’t look at the details. I guess it started off as a joke but then it started being taken as fact. It’s crazy how some misinformation online could go a long way.
He paid her off the first time and the second time they did not consider the evidence because it was leaked document about him admitting to it and argued it breached his privacy or some other bs. Either way he got away on a technicality
Ronaldo is such a terrible actor Messi is way more likeable for simply not being such a tryhard.
Messi is way more likeable for simply not being such a tryhard.Horseshit. There were plenty of us who thought it was a bad idea.
2+2 = 54
The defence and midfield was misfiring becayse they were not good enough and Rashford had major injury issues.
Ronaldo was a bad signing but he didn’t cause bad performances from the likes of Maguire. Oles change in setup to he more aggresive did
Cheers!
