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?

What kind of grass we talking about here...
Oh mate, it’s time to step away from the keyboard for a while.
Maybe go outside, smell some grass or touch a tree. Just clear your head for a bit.
I'm sure some time down the line Ronaldo will regret this when he actually does some thinking rather than trying to score cheap points. Is he really going to be satisfied playing in a league in the middle east for money whilst Messi still plays in the UCL? Ten Hag is not an eccentric manager like Mourinho and Ronaldo has shown why other managers across Europe that they wouldn't want these tantrums in their dressing room either.
Im regretting calling my twin boys Ron and Aldo now.
I watched this and felt very uncomfortable agreeing with Garragher. Rio made a dick of himself imo.
You can always tell them they were named after Big Ron and Duscher.
CR name checked Rio as his good mate. He can never say anything now, can he?
He will never regret this. People like him never do. It will be Man Utds/Ten Haags/the dinner ladies anyone's fault but him. He will go to his death bed bitter on how he was wronged, and he had no blame in it whatsoever.
Whatever kind he likes. I’m just trying to distract him so I can pour the Kool Aid down the sink.What kind of grass we talking about here...
We don't believe that you are actually red. You have also been merengue and bianconeri.
Rio is a dickhead on this. He is putting down the club and promoting his mate over the interest of the club he claims to support.
I defended him for taking the summer off.
But, this is happening now because he can't accept that he's no longer the most important player in the team, he doesn't have the same impact on the pitch. He's a shadow of the player he was and it's all down to age catching up with him.
Everything that's going on outside of football is just adding to his frustrations, because he's not able to leave it behind and go out on the pitch and show he's still one of the best.
It's a sad state of affairs really and he just needs to go somewhere else where they'll treat him like a king.
Why doesn't he just say 'Im good friends with Ronaldo and I love Man Utd so I apologize but I cannot make a statement or talk about this matter'. That at least we can respect. Trying to defend Ronaldo at the same time as saying the truth is just embarrassing.
No, hes far too arrogant for that. It will make him bitter as he gets older though as people start to look back on his career with admiration for his stats but no love at all for the man. People will look back very fondly on Messi but not so much on him.
Because it’s difficult to convince people to listen to your shite podcast with a stance like that.
People struggle with this because it's immediately interpreted as a personal attack on Ronaldo. Last season we were a struggling team partially due to the way he played and we are often struggling this season when he plays for the same reasons, despite having a better midfield.
maybe he prefers astroturf.I bet you judge people by the purity of their blood.ha ha, I get upset too when people judge that I must enjoy a bit of Harry Potter. Wtf
Im not sure how to feel about this...
But he also have some points, United is not where it should be. The managers and players we had/have that actually have won things, all seem to be very critic on how the whole club is run.
And for us to suddenly rely on players like: Rashford, Martial, Fernandes and so on.... Players that never won a big league or a big cup. And a manager that never been in a top league or never won a top trophy.
While Ronaldo may not be the solution, im even more sure our current squad isnt the solution either.

Nah. It’s worse than that. Ferdinand got great play out of his role in persuading Ronaldo to come back. He’s compromised now so he has to tread the line between having an opinion and looking a dick either way.
Free speech is back!
I think you know exactly how to feel. Either that or you forgot to type the other half of the argument before you wrote “but”.
Yeah you’re probably right to be fair. He’s too invested to realise people would have far more respect for him if he held his hand up and said he’d made a mistake.
He’s not alone. Most of us were excited about Ronaldo coming back and ignored the vocal minority who were against it.
I bet you judge people by the purity of their blood.
This is just sad to watch. Rio is mates with Ronaldo, fair enough but then maybe in that case just stay away from that topic rather than keep embarrassing yourself and desperately trying to shift the blame on the club.
Guys, when will the full interview be released and where can I watch it?
The voting options are so bias it's ridiculous, it's embarrassing

Equally it shouldn't be the responsibility of the club to pay Ronaldo off to facilitate that move. If terminating the contract means paying him off, feck that. I've never seen anybody consistently behave so unprofessionally for United, and that behaviour shouldn't be rewarded.
If Ronaldo wants to leave so desperately he can do it by taking a pay cut. You can't have your cake and eat it.
Those percentages don't add up
Alright, settle down, Donald.Those percentages don't add up
What are you on about? We have a player who has won the WC. We have a player who has won the CL and la Liga multiple times. Klopp and Pep didn't win anything major before they were appointed to their first managerial post. Pep certainly didn't. Klopp never won the CL before he came to Liverpool.
Who from Arsenal has won anything? Same with Liverpool when they won their first CL and league. Yes proven winners are great, we have a few with Varane, Casemiro. But you’ve basically done an Alan Hansen ‘you can’t win anything with kids’ post.

Wait, can you give some context?
Alan Hansen.
Well what can I say, it’s a public discussion forum here, and people likes to put forward an argument just for argument sake only. If you failed to see that maybe it’s better you go outside and take a walk with your dog, or something. Helps to clear your head abit and get a better perspective.

Some of our ex players really ain’t coming out of this looking good are they? Speak so much nonsense.
Did you just assume my pet?
