In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

What a huge disappointment this would be.
I'd prefer to play rashford over him. Completely the wrong type of player we need right now.
He'd be ok as a stop gap I think.
60 million stopgap for the French welbeck
Presumably putting 2 and 2 together given Griezmann's tweet and our leak we're prioritising a #9.
I'd rather that than £60M for Lukaku.
French Welbeck wtf
? He's a much better goalscorer and that alone makes them entirely different.Fairly sure he'll still go to Atletico and just sit out playing until January
He's better than Belotti and Lukaku, and cheaper too.
28 in 30 Ligue 1 games this season.

My thinking as well, from Griezmann to this guy.. I thought champions league football was meant to help us attract the very best?
Ugh, no please. I am usually supportive of buying any good player but Mou has one position for a striker in his formation, so this guy cannot be it.
I don't think he will, he still aims for the World Cup.
10 of those goals are from Penalty mate ... do not want.
This. I don't understand how nobody is hype for this
How is he better then lukaku?? He is so so average. He is in a dire league and half his goals are pens
We might know something in an hour.
Lukaku has no first touch, no passing ability or even an idea of link up play. His only good trait is finishing. Lacazette is a much better option.
Why an hour?
I think he looks a very good player.
His Wiki says his current team is Colchester United. Guess we can lock this.
Give over he's 10x the player welbeck is
He's not what we need though I'd prefer lukaku still
Not a bad one for a striker though right?
Because the journalist working at Lyon for L'equipe is on the case and will probably have some info in an hour.
Ah right, I hadn't seen anything about a French journo looking into it, what do you think of Lacazette?
18 goals from open play in 30 games is still a decent rate. Especially in a defensive league like Ligue 1.
100 in 203 in the league for Lyon
I think everyone is on a downer after the whole Griezmann situation.
I'd happily have Lacazette at OT next season though to be fair
Would prefer to Lukaku but obviously not a patch on signing a Griezmann or Mbappe.
Good player if you intend to play a game around movement and technique, ideally he would play for Sarri or replace Aubameyang at Dortmund. If I try to be controversial, he is better than Aubameyang.
And early in his career he was a winger.
25 goals from open play in 37 appearances in a much tougher league is better but hay, Romelu can't do anything else.
Hope not
For me his hold up play is unconvincing. Only makes sense to me if we are making Rashford first choice.
You need to be able to do much more in a top team.
And besides, why is being able to score pen a problem now ? There are some one a kind level idiotic posts on the caf at times.
He's strong and fast with an eye for goal. Decent holdup play but likes to get in behind. Think we could do better though.
I've never watched him play btw.

That last bit surprised me, I've not watched Lyon much in the last season, I thought he looked good when paired with Fekir in that great season Lyon had a couple of years back. He doesn't seem a lone striker to me so we'd have to play a tight front 3 or use a 2 striker system IMO.
