In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!

Bit harsh on clay. It's quite useful and resilient in many ways.
We weren't booing Martial. When Martial entered the pitch he was greeted with warm applause (even though most of us didn't want to see him come on!)
The booing martial doesn’t add up. It came across as booing Hojlund going off. As soon as Hojlund stepped off the pitch it was noticeable the booing dispersed into cheering Martial onto the pitch. It seemed like crowd wanted to make it evident they were just booing Hojlund coming off and not Martial coming on.
God this place chats some shite. He’s not that bad ffs
Yeah, he's worse than what people are saying.
I don't think the match going crowd is actively going to boo a player when he's wearing our shirt. The reaction was to show their displeasure at Hojlund coming off and Martial coming on.
But once he's on, there's no point in not cheering for him as he's still playing for us.
You're right, it's only brain dead people who felt disappointed and angry at Martial coming on. After all he has been tearing it up lately. Oh wait...
Yes makes sense to keep the player who is nursing a back injury and couldnt even complete 90 mins during internationals on the pitch when we have a game mid week. Oh wait….
Lets injure the only dynamic CF we have at the club because fans don’t like Martail. Then have to play Martial for the rest of the season. So clever…
The words "Martial" and "performances" should never be in the same sentence.
You do realize we could have bought on other players? Garnacho for instance. A player who actually brings dynamism to our play.
To play CF? Garnacho did come on
If only you were allowed to change systems during a game. Especially one that was getting battered out there by the opposition.
Rashford is not great playing up top but I'd rather have him there than Martial. And Garnacho could have played from the left.
Anyway what's done is done. If you think bringing on Martial was the right decision then good for you. It was a terrible decision and played out exactly as anyone would have expected. He was utterly useless.
Maybe he took Hojlund off because hes carrying a back injury and he needs to manage his minutes which should be kind of obvious or do we want to add hojlund to the injury list because you can bet Martial will probably play in the league cup match and tear his toe nail an be out for 6 weeks.
Bringing on Martial is pointless. He is finished. I agree anything is better. Its a bit like ETH bringing on WW last season, utter garbage
My main point was taking off Hojlund was the right call as I stated from the start
I never once said Hojlund should have played the full game. My point is someone other than Martial should have come on. And so I believe that substitution was rightly booed. It was disappointment at seeing the one forward who looked capable of scoring coming off and being replaced with someone everyone knew would make zero impact.
While it was understandable why Hojlund was taken off, there was no sense in bringing on Martial to replace him.
That is a more understandable gripe than what I thought which was being unhappy Hojlund came off.
Bayern Munich 4:3 Man Utd
This part timer looked on it today. Shame he didnt have more minutes.
We actually saw Good Martial today.
Might have been the strangest thing in a very strange game.

Turned back the clock today. If he can actually dribble past people again it certainly would add another nice option.
That's the Martial we all love. He's incredible when he's on it.
I'd like to see him start against Burnley on the left.

He's alive.
When he's good, he balls hard. Why can't he be consistent like that? We played a lot better with him on the pitch.
There's his annual decent performance. See you next year.
Silk.
This is the start of his 3 games of sharpness then an injury.
Learned to move! So that's nice.
That goal today is something he's capable of being part of. Once a season. Maybe. Don't let it fool you. Again.
Someone told him his contracts up for renewal
Actually played well and he sprinted a few times tp hound Bayern players. Fair play to him.
His good day where he's among the best on the pitch and he didn't get enough minutes. Just our luck.
Thanks for the reminder of what could have been 
Martial FC is back.
Based on the current state of our attacking line, I'm willing to follow blind faith here
I actually think our front three should be Martial - Hojlund - Rashford till Antony gets back.
That isn't based on his cameo today.

Amused me with an atypical performance there
A positive impact
Made successful dribbles, assisted. Good cameo all in all
Actually played quite well there, looked as fit as he was a few years ago.
He suddenly remembered how to glide past players again. I had practically forgotten that at his best he's a very very good dribbler. If he can get into any sort of form it'd help us massively.
