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?

Sweet baby jesus, welcome back Bastian!
Don't know whether to laugh or cry
I'm very pleased. I wouldn't care if he didn't come back, and contrary to many on here, I think it's Mourinho's decision. However, I've seen enough of Schweinsteiger throughout his career to believe he actually might have something to contribute to this team. He hasn't complained once in public after his treatment, and that really says a lot for me. Welcome back maestro!
Having him in the squad we lose nothing and might gain a lot
True. Loads of experience and character and another player for Mourinho to utilyze in his midfield equation.
Maybe Carrick will now be used in the League and Schweinsteiger might take up his role in the cups.
i love bastian and therefore I will be glad if he is a player once again.
I seriously doubt that will be the case given that we have the likes of Schneiderlin, Herrera, and Fellaini already available. Schweinsteiger would be fantastic alongside Pogba and Herrera imo.
He should never have been exiled anyway, but makes the decision even stranger to bring him back a couple months later. Anyway hopefully this strange episode can be swept under the carpet.
Let's hope he can prove his worth.

I for one am not terribly convinced that this will end well...

Imagine he smashes it for us from now
I would not find it surprising at all.
I personally expect it. Can see him being incredible next to the legs of Herrera and Pogba.
This.
It's simple and effective and allows so much scope to rotate Schneiderlin, Herrera, Pogba etc depending on the match requirements. Hopefully Jose has learned that Pogba needs that help alongside him to develop; He had it at Juventus but Fellaini can't cut it in that DM role for us.
Herrera is brilliant but works better at the moment as part of a 3 with Carrick/and hoepfully Basti as the DMs.
That's really a pleasant surprise!
Having Schweinsteiger back won't help a thing, he will get injured after a couple of games.
Yes, i am a grumpy feck.
Hopefully we will start playing Carrick at DM and Schweinsteiger can play whenever Carrick needs a rest.

He's a few years younger than Carrick, and comparing both at their peak, BFS is on a different level. Let's hope he can reinvent himself in some way, shape or form and get himself into contention for the starting XI. It's not beyond him to be a brilliant player again.
He is in the squad tomorrow according to the german press!!!
They just speculate about it as 19 players have been participating in the final training and 18 will make the squad.
Hopefully Mourinho has realised how important it is to get the correct balance in midfield and it's asking a lot of Carrick to play 3 games in a week.
Schweini - Herrera - Pogba midfield 3 please!
To think that has Van Gaal stayed,Carrick would be gone and Bastian would have been his chosen senior midfielder. With the beauty of hindsight,that wouldn't have been good.
I fail to see how Bastian and Carrick are interchangeable while maintaining the balance.
And Herrera probably still on the bench.
I think Bastian can sit at the base of midfield? giving us better balance and allowing Pogba to be freed up. He doesn't read the game defensively as well as Carrick but I think he can do it.
He may not be like for like with Carrick but he's the only other player we have in the squad who can control the midfield. He really should be being rotated.
Fantastic news if true.
He's baaaack~
On the bench. Probably for the whole game.

Guys looked overweight last season, went to Germany during rehab, put in bang average performances, followed his girlfriend during her tours instead of trying to get fit and generally was poor when he played yet it seems him being on the bench is a cause for celebration. Have standards slipped that much? While Anthony Martial and Luke Shaw two top young players cant even get into the side over Darmian and Jesse Lingard? Would be worried if I was a United fan.
Boring.
Why are you so worried about United mate?
Just enjoy your team and stop worrying about us
Hopefully this is just to fill numbers, or something. Bit concerning.
Mourinho punished him for being unprofessional and his reemergence must be because he has made amends by working hard behind the scenes. There is every chance that he is being put in the shop window too, just showing everyone he can still run etc.
4 month too late Mourinho you idiot
He was never coming on today, he never actually got out of his seat to warm up.
The Metro claiming he's set to retire.

Wow, Hoeneß is back as Bayerns president for 2 days and has to shoot arrows already.

Aye it was just a "look he's still a player.... honestly" sort of escapade. One last deal from China or USA and he's paid for his lavish lifestyle til he's 80.
