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.
That's because he's constantly in space, and yet he's not been used a whole lot.
Of course Liverpool are ahead. Salah.
1-0 Salah.
PSG need to stop knocking it around the back like they’re a team that has any sort of chemistry. They’re a bunch of disconnected very talented individuals, stop the one twos in your own box and stick to relying on bits of brilliance
Gueye's 4th goal in 6 matches while being a lockdown defender.
If only somebody had suggested signing him this summer.
If he wasn't scoring against the likes of Brest and Montpellier in a team stacked full of attacking talent. That might be impressive.
Awful goalkeeping on that Liverpool goal they should go on to win comfortably now against such a patched up porto defence
Salah has literally scored in everygame this season.....
He's hitting Messi/Ronaldo prime figures in goal scoring If he keeps this up
He's hitting Messi/Ronaldo prime figures in goal scoring If he keeps this up
Important thing is he is a guy who loves his family.Hes not a serious guy
Liverpool's whipping boys continue to serve their masters.
Exactly.
For the kind of money we paid for him, and is undoubtedly paying him, he should be doing more. Destroyer? We might as well have given Ander Herrera the contract he wanted because Herrera was doing that job pretty well for us before he left. But some genius decided Fred was worth the money, and here we are.
I disagree, that midfield would get overrun quick with Bruno and Pogba (to a lesser extent) tendency to turn over possession to the opposition. Pogba's defensive contributions are not good and Bruno's positioning is too high up in this setup. The way it could work is getting Bruno to drop deeper (playing him as more of a b2b cm) and getting him to give away the ball less.
This ref is having none of Grealish’s shit.
you should delete all his music regardless
Milan ahead v. Atletico. Leao.
That PSG lineup is incredible. Only Herrera is a weak link and even he is very very good.
Less so now
My point was, Fred's importance to the team is overstated and Ole's faith in him is unfounded.
Messi lost a yard, hasn't he?
De Bruyne can't get near Verratti
Sporting should have had a couple by now
Pure class from Verratti.
How are City looking?
Verratti is taking the piss here with City
he's been so good
Brugges equalise at RBL. Charles De Ketelaere
I wish we had Verratti, i love him.
Looks like PSG have started strongly.
Can we sit Ole, McKenna and McFred down and ask them to watch Veratti in central midfield
Joao Cancyellow
It's really ridiculous what oil money can get you.
Herrera would be our best midfielder if he was still playing for us.
Strangling possession. PSG look dangerous when they go forward.
PSG are playing with two Messi's. One up front and one in midfield.
Feel like they were just incapable of dealing with City's press in the second half of last season's game. Now the full press is on from City but they're still playing it out quite well.
Having Messi, Hakimi and Veratti helps.
Sheriff ahead at Real. Yakhshiboev
Its built on that midfield 3. So solid.
We have no midfield pairing without him that is better than one with him. Anyway, you’re in the wrong thread moaning about him.
