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?
Alaba was a huge disappointment for me. Along with Austria, really had high expectations from them.
Could not believe how shit Russia were and I thought Turkey would put in some decent performances.

Worst player at the tournament must have been Harry Kane. Did nothing right and him blasting all those free kicks wide of the goal made it look even worse. Joe Hart gets second place for this and Fabregas third place
Other players deserving of being mentioned :
Sterling was really shit, Muller hasnt been great and Nani has been better than Ronaldo so far..
Worst moment of a player has to be Zaza his penalty though

I've been fairly disinterested with international football this time round so I've watched these euros little bit here and there with some highlight skimming in between, and I have to say, it comes across as a pretty rubbish tournament. The quality appears to me to be really really shitty. A bunch of average to goodish at best teams nullifying each other with their average to goodishness. Heck one whole half of the draw is piss poor. While the other half flatters to deceive.
Bring back the club season ASAP please.

I liked most of the matches, apart from a few. Smaller teams have done themselves justice. Wales and Iceland have been the high points of the tournament.
Players who flattered to deceive : Muller, Ronaldo. Had both these cnuts in my fantasy team and neither scored a lot.

These rumours that Alaba can play 1-11 world class.. he looked so poor in midfield. Should stick to being a left back.
Ronaldo and Muller mostly.
I had also expected/hoped Martial would shine but thats more because I want him to do well than anything.
Expected nothing of England or Spain.

This. Even the so-called favorites have failed to impress me.
The Euros 2016 have not impressed me.
Müller plays like he's cursed. At least he still got his engine (way over 14km against Italy) but he just can't get out of his slump. Seems a tad slower mentally than usual.
There is no shame in playing full back in 2016. It's quickly becoming the most diverse and demanding position in world football.
His play at this cup is way more defensive than what he (and us) is used to, I'd say. His work rate and dedication are untouched by his misfortunes in front of the goal, at least.
