In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
You got a link?
The only bit I see on the site quotes the newpapsers in 'What the papers say'. That is bollocks.
My marked players need replacing for the following reasons.....
+ Too old (4)
* Not good enough (3)
= Cant be relied upon (3)
@ Jury is still out (6)
I'm NOT suggesting we have to replace them all right now, but there are a fair number of the squad who could be improved upon
Hargreaves is as German
as Churchill.
So PIG, Park and Obertan are not good enough yet Bebe and Smalling are irreplaceable, having played like 2-3 matches for the club?
I think you're a bit harsh. Anderson were great his first season, decent his second season too, and crap last season. That is often the case with Brazilians in world cup years because making the team is more important than anything so when they are rotated they put themselves under too much pressure, he still might get there because his talent is obvious. Park is good enough when he is at form, there are little doubt that he is a great squad member. It is too soon to say that Obertan will not make it yet, after all he has 77 league apperences in France and England at the age of 21, at this age I believe Paul Scholes had yet to make his league debut - there is little doubt that he is a talented winger, and in his defense he often plays when the other winger does not deliver, and that is a problem because the wingers kind of rely on each other.
As your analysis still show - midfield is the area of priority, and in my mind a winger is more important than a attacking midfielder as Scholes and Giggs still can deliver at that position, I also think it is important to remember that Giggs is not a great winger anymore, but should be used more as a playmaker.
at Bebe being more reliable than RaffleOnly the odd youth player and attempts for the likes of Ballack and Babbel...
Babel is not German. He is Dutch.
Markus Babbel, who we tried to sign in 96 or 97. It only fell through after we agreed a deal with Bayern, because he wanted around 25k a week (I think only Cantona got that in those days).
Oops sorry. I thought it was a typo.
Bale and Rodwell and a keeper would be the perfect signings for me. Ganso would be nice but with the emergence of Chicarito I don't think we need a new playmaker as Rooney can play deeper with Little Pea up front!
Bale, Rodwell, de Gea and possibly Phil Jones at Blackburn, and I would *** myself silly. God, I hate it when I go all transfer muppety.
