In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
*David De Gea goes through run of poor form
United: where’s that guy who coaches Joe Hart?

In before the «We can’t do better than Burnley’s keeper coach?».
Too late!
Damn! Only by seconds as well!
I must admit, this did make me chuckle
Is he the guy behind Tom Heaton becoming Schimeichel against us?¹
Can't argue about signing the bloke who made Heaton and Pope into England keepers.
Does he have a release clause?
they have a pic of him in a United kit??
Exactly what I was going to say. It's like they were in denial until the hard evidence of a training ground pick surfaced
Glad you mentioned that while there are some posters who simply want to ridicule every decision Utd make.
Fookin hell Craig! I thought you said you was going down the shop for some more bibs!Exactly what I was going to say. It's like they were in denial until the hard evidence of a training ground pick surfaced
To be fair, we should have been as cautious with Obi Mikel.Exactly what I was going to say. It's like they were in denial until the hard evidence of a training ground pick surfaced
Where are all of the nutters from the DOF, Woodward and Haaland threads at tonight? We need somebody to dissect the club’s recruitment strategy and pretend as if they were sitting in on the interview process.
I will wait.
I will wait.
Alternatively, are you suggesting that the club does not need a DoF based on the only evidence being that we signed a goalkeeper coach?
I’m not, because that is not what I said. Interesting inference.
In fairness as a club Burnley need a good goalkeeper/coaching of that position.
He must be decent as a coach and he aint coming in to replace someone we lost.
See it as a positive!

"Burnley has been a big part of my life and I have built a real affinity with the club,” said Mawson as reported by Burnley FC.
“I thoroughly enjoyed all my time there as a player and a coach, and I am extremely grateful to Billy Mercer and all the Academy staff I have worked with.
"I would like to thank them for everything they have done for me and for the perfect grounding they have provided me with.
"But this was an opportunity that I couldn’t let pass. To have this chance to work in a senior position at a club of Manchester United’s standing is a fantastic opportunity and one I’m delighted to take.

I hope he coaches De Gea to save a penalty.............Deeney sends his down the middle.....the whole world knew it except Dave!
Someone has common sense.
Burnley have produced and developed great keepers. Shrewd move by United.
I'm sure Woody is lining up a contract extension as we speak...
United current Gk coaches are not good enough?
He’s coming in as assistant to Richard Hartis.
I want a vid of him playing a piano
Maybe we should start calling Dave "Rodney"
Funnily enough, Nick Pope reminds me of De Gea more than any other keeper in the league. Awesome shot stopper that uses his legs a lot but is crap passer. If you look at Burnley's xG when they finshed in the Europa League places in 17/18, Pope was probably the biggest single factor in that achievement.

Based on that article, he'll train the first team Gks. Two coaches for 3 Gks?
But meh.. it's just a coach anyway.
Hope he coaches Dave how to come off the line.
I was thinking that but in the end two heads are better than one. And realistically they must have other responsibilities too, taking the odd session with the academy and stuff.
Is DDG a crap passer? He picks 'safety first' moreso than some of the best keepers with their feet, but when he chooses to pass it out, he's been pretty good of late.
Elton John like or one of the classics?
Can he play right wing?
I assume this means our January budget has gone on this guy.
(can’t be bothered to white text it...)

Then what did you say? Cause your post reads as nothing.
Did you watch the last game? He was horrendous with his feet. As per usual.
I did. When did he misplace passes?
I thought this was about a referee, i was so confused
