Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) discuss United's fantastic win away against Athletic Club in the semi-final of the Europa League.
They also pick out the positives of United's 4-3 loss away at Brentford, and Nik reviews a day out at Old Trafford watching Manchester United Women qualify for the Champions League.
So dalot moving into the middle is a problem?
I don't see it as a problem, we have to do that to push the other midfielder on.. why do you think we need to do that?
Is he statistically our worse captain in the last 30 yrs?
You missed one... you'll need this for the delot comments.
Why is rashford so poor without Shaw?
Oh this is getting better and better, at least most obnoxious moaning mf in recent history deserved that contract, worth every penny.
Not sure what to write.
Both crucial and one of the more annoying players in our squad, imo. Does my only remaining nut in when he's moaning at other players, because it's usually him moaning like a tit rather than having a proper go at them for being shit. I think his overall attitude is a shitshow when we're struggling.

We'll keep this in mind after one (inevitable) good or very good performance of Bruno or asssist or goal, when the gloating starts again.
We? As in "told you so" tag team?
I phrase my takes usually in a way that doesn't make for good gotcha-moments but I'll ensure you, I'll be here and ready once you think the time is right.
Btw - totally with you, this "told you so" internet point scoring is boring as feck but it is happening all over this place. With positivity-posters and anti-hate activists all up in arms as well.
I don't mind Bruno being dropped for bad performance. Playing Mainoo. I don't know. Seems like quite different roles.
We got caught on our left side all night, last weekend Dalot got caught out of position for two Spurs goals…
Yeah it’s not a problem, nothing to see here.
Here’s a question? Aside from Bruno, do you think Ten Hag is getting the other stuff right?
Do you honestly think that when he finally drops Bruno, his masterplan starts to make perfect sense and we become a top side ?
Is he? Was very good tonight, in general he’s been one of our few acceptable performers this season.
"In the mud" posters you mean
I'm thoroughly done with Captain Chaos.
So running past four players for the first is great, yes he should of tracked johnson.
The other goal vs spurs wasn't on him (dalot)
Tonight it's Martinez fault, becuase he should be in front of the scorer.
"Do you honestly think that when he finally drops Bruno, his masterplan starts to make perfect sense and we become a top side ?"
I don't know, but I'd love to see it.
And that's it, I'm a utd fan, one day again I won't even think of winning the league.
Attacking wise yes, defensively nah.,
His demeanour on the pitch, his pissy toddler tantrums when his teammates lose the ball combined with his lack of a shit at giving the ball away himself, his diving and feigning injury. Can't stand him, worst captain we've ever had.
We’d all love to see it but it seems beyond wishful thinking to hope that simply replacing Bruno turns EtH from a joke to a mastermind with a brilliant plan all along that simply needed to removal of one player to unleash it.
Same when Shaw plays though that so not sure of your point.
His offensive performance is not good enough.
Play Eriksen in place of Bruno and 2 defensive minded midfielders, and no FB as inverted CM bs, and we instantly become a way better team. Give it a few games and we will start scoring as well. At least we wont concede.
At this moment, he is a liability in current setup. Being carried by others

Yet you claimed the same with Maguire and were desperate for Bruno to get the gig, even stating that he WAS the captain even when Maguire has the armband because a strip of fabric doesn’t change that.
Just confirms to me that fans will continue to hate every captain here until we’re successful.
Surprisingly, opinions can change with time and evidence and circumstances.
He's wank.
Not sure what it would take for him to get dropped.
I'm drunk, listening to Onyx.. can't be bothered.He was my favorite player by a stretch but last season and this one is making it really hard to defend him. His attitude stinks, his tantrums being a captain combined with the shit performances. It's all poor at the moment.
Absolutely and of course they should change and develop, but I’m also certain you’d be absolutely slating your pick last season to take over (Martinez) for his absolute shit shows this year. Two years ago we’d likely all have picked Casemiro.
And you’ll continue thinking every captain is utter shite until we are successful again.
The guy could start complaining and moaning at his own shadow.
Keeps trying to take himself out of the team, the manager isn’t getting the hint though.
Have said for a while the best thing we could do as far as recruitment goes is to replace Bruno and Rashford.
But some people are terrified by the idea of letting go of our so-called "star" players

My right hook.
He is not our problem, but he is not our solution.
Sad that we can’t ever do the smart thing and cash in on players when the time is right.
We are too emotional of a club. Vibes FC
Some people bump McTominay/Maguire threads. Its not only about star players
He is part of it, just like Erik is. I don't think everything will become glorious as soon as there's a new manager in the door. I still think the culture is rotten at the club. Not because of unprofessional individuals, as maybe was the case for the last 5-6 years. Listening to the Stick to Football pod they talk about how it was a dressing room of winners and then Cantona comes in and leads by example, always doing individual training too which inspired the younger players. I just don't think we've had a healthy culture for years and that was absolutely highlighted when the supposed star player was trying to pressure the club into giving him a new contract even though he had three years to run on his deal and had been playing good for 2 months in an average side. And he got the deal. There are no consequences to playing badly, to entitled attitudes, and there are no positive reactions out on the pitch when we're up against it. One manager won't change that by themselves, but I think it's safe to say Erik definitely can't be a big part of that solution.
What an absolute fraud of a footballer. The day he leaves will be worthy of a celebration. Footballing criminal.
He needs to go, alongside Rashford and Casemiro. We need to ship them away in Jan and that will free about 1 million a week in wages. We can rebuild from there
I always liked him in the national team but even there he has been underwhelming.
Don’t know if it’s bad form or what but he is a shadow of the player he once was.
The fact that he is such a whiny bitch and has such a punchable face doesn’t help.

Oh right so you think Bruno is the sole reason we are playing the way we are?
Carry on. Its quite abundantly clear its the system, you can put the best 11 in there and we would look the same under this manager/
Incredibly stupid second yellow considering what his first yellow was for. At the moment, I think Bruno is a problem, we are so poor defensively after losing the ball and getting countered on, and he just gives the ball away far too often. I’m not saying Mount or anyone else in that position would be better necessarily, but his ball retention needs to improve imo, just be a bit more pragmatic at times.
