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.
I imagine he has almost unlimited credit but at the moment the gardener without copa and supercopa
Zidane: 53 points out of 60 in the league, wins the CL
Xavi: "we could have beaten Real Madrid!" After losing to Real Madrid
Just seen the yellow card for Kroos. I've always known that refereeing in Spain was bad, but sometimes it descends to the downright farcical.
Went to bed as was up early. Very proud of them. Barca still need a lot of work.
Good to know, it was actually my first assumption.
Betis got a very nicely balanced team these days.
Completely smashed Espanyol who get some good results at home.
With Pellegrini doing well again I think they'll make top 4.

Sevilla battling here, came back from 2-0 and pushing for the win
They will not go gentle into the night

Let’s hope Madrid drop points tomorrow and we can enjoy at least a 2 horse race.
Great goal.
Also athletico are still dreadful.

Valencia putting some pressure on atletico.
They also seem very brittle in defense which is quite uncharacteristic of them lot.

Another one makes it 2-0
Decent goal.
Decent goal.
Atletico have been bad for awhile. I think Diego Simeone has taken them as far as he can.
Underlying numbers are actually still strong, but Oblak is having a season from hell
Their confidence is shot now though
How's De Paul been doing, excellent in Serie A and had outstanding Copa but perhaps another big money signing that hasn't settled into Simeone ball yet?
Matheus Cunha largely bench warmed and Grieizmann coming back has been a disaster.
Feels like Atletico sign well on paper but it still goes back to the trusted Simeone disciples. I'd still back them to make top 4 but it will be tight.

Ah giorno you and your infatuation with underlying numbers, they're simply dogshit at the moment no running around it.
They pull one back , looking a tad better.
Another 90th minute goal. Still some time to go.
Welp, shouldn't have bad mouthed them, the comeback is complete.
Good job by them rallying to get the win.

What a craptacular keeper that Domenech dude is. On top of that, he is short.
Atletico just started with a handicap to make it interesting 
Valencia
What a boost of morale for Atletico 
Did not expect that.
Bad penalty miss from Benzema and now Elche are ahead.
Yeah that was obvious. Really bad feeling this game
Edit: oh yeah we're getting football'd today

Days like this i hate this sport
I'll take one point.
Great header fron Militao to equalize.
It was my bad, i was jinxing us
Ah well, at least we didn't lose. This was one of our best performances of the season ffs

Hopefully sevila sort themselves out and give real a decent challenge .
Dw jong with a late winner. Not bad.
The game was pretty bad though. This win isn't deserved at all. Their inability to create dangerous plays is pretty concerning.
They've been fluking in results. This is like the 3rd game under Xavi where they didn't deserve the 3 points
Not deserved, but good for Barça in the end.
They are in a state where they can't complain about winning while not playing well.
Obviously a win is always good when you're shooting for top 4 but I don't watch Barcelona's games to see if they're going to qualify for top4 by struggling against Alaves, I try to figure out where this team is going and as of right now, I have no idea, I don't see a whole lot of improvement. The results are OK so it probably means that at least they're not giving up, but lord this team always seems on the verge of collapsing. Also, I still don't understand why they spent all their money on Ferran Torres.
Yeah you are indeed correct, that was a terrible game but barca could do with a win or two.
The next match against atletico will be quite important and seeing how they responded in their last game they currently have the impetus.
Terrible game but I’ll take the 3 points. Torres has been amazing signing.
Atletico and Napoli in the coming weeks, we’ll get stomped by Napoli but Atletico have also been up and down so I’ll gladly take a draw.

Only 5 points difference at the moment between position 4th (Atletico 36 pts) and 9th (Athletic Bilbao 31 pts).
Very tight at the bottom half of the table too.
