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?

We added our 7th striker and yet. We would still prefer a limping Rooney against a top side then any of the alternatives left.
I have no idea what to post. We know nothing about this player. I'll come back in 6 months.
Come back with a complete review on his technique
I'm delighted we've signed someone that the transfer spastics have never heard of.
Oh wiki.
And at least someone who will make us look beautiful again

Interesting article, from only 1 week ago too.
Garrincha is bad ass, come on...
Little Ronald?
Little Bird? (Garrincha)
They're all quite shit
Socretes, Zizinho, Zico, Jairzinho, Cafu
These aren't football players, they're power rangers!
Welcome Chiquchento.
fecking out of the blue!
ok, this guy really just burst onto the scene for Chivas in mexico properly this year, and he's been on fire, one of the big stories of the season over there. Unfortunately I don't really watch Chivas (watched them last weekend, but he was out injured I believe), but he's been doing goal a game stuff for them, not bad for a 21 year old! Although it is in Mexico.
I did see him play a couple of friendlies for the Mexican national team recently, and he does look promising. Quick and dangerous, and with a good finish on him. Never ever expected this deal, but if we were going for a young striker in Mexico, this is the guy to go for. feckING EXCITED!

probably play in the reserves for 10 months make a couple of appearences then get dropped.
Very calm finishes from the YouTube vids, and looked comfortable shooting off either foot. I always like to see a striker who passes it into the net rather than looking to smash it in.
Some of the (predictable I guess) responses in here are pretty embarassing.

Soon, he may have to answer to Master Pea.

Very interesting to see us sign our first Mexican under US ownership.
Does anyone think he would have been targeted by a MLS team if the Glazers hadn't stepped in?

I'll give you Socrates and Zico at a push, the others sound like sneezes.
Bow down to his little pea-ness!
When Chucho sounds better you know your nickname needs changing.
Hell of a lot better then Danny Shittu...

Nah, Spain is always the most likely destination for decent Mexicans, but there actually aren't that many who make it over to Europe. MLS wouldn't be a step up from the Mexican league.
Certainly hope so, seeing as he'll need a permit.
Hahahaha someone had a laugh on his wiki page...

True. Just intriguing to see us go to mexico.
WIKI - After the news had broke, Ferguson told the United website, "OMG this guy is going to be fuchin mint, we're gonna win da quadruple, fo sho. There's no question about that".
its about time, theyve had some promising talent recently.
Get to know... Javier Hernandez
An introduction to United's 21-year-old strike acquisition Javier 'Chicharito' Hernandez...
Where's he from?
Hernandez currently plies his trade with Chivas de Guadalajara in Mexico's Primera Division. Chivas are the most successful team in Mexican history with 11 titles. Having been at the club since the age of nine, Javier scored within five minutes of making his first-team debut, in a 4-0 win over Necaxa in 2006, and helped his side win the title that season.
What's his record?
Pretty impressive. He's scored 21 goals in 28 appearances for Chivas this term and has netted four times in as many games for Mexico. At 5ft 9in, he's not the biggest striker in the world, but he's quick and certainly knows his way to goal.
Where does his nickname come from?
Javier is commonly known in his homeland as 'Chicharito', meaning 'little pea', in reference to his green eyes. He received the moniker as he's the son of Chivas legend Javier 'Chicharo' Hernandez, himself a top Mexican striker who played in the 1986 World Cup.
When can we see him in action for the Reds?
Not until he has received a work permit. If that is granted, Javier will join United officially on 1 July and could make his debut in a pre-season friendly against Chivas in Guadalajara.

And that right there is the rub...the Mexican league is gash. It really is. I used to watch a few games when I lived in the states and it's really quite poor (Chivas is a good team but most of the competition is really mediocre).
hope he is one of them and makes it at united. young blood is the only way forward.
