In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Can't really compare to the pitches they had to play on in the 60s/70s. They used to be a right state.
Way too much foliage.
It was easier to hit the target back then though, way too much action on the modern balls which makes it more difficult.
Lack of protection as well. Produced yet more as a result.
things have advanced too, the old timers had a pretty standard set up, didn't have all the fancy never positions they have now days.
That's a really bad/strange pass from Messi to Xavi, unless he anticipated that Xavi could do that.
Some exhibition passing stuff against relegation fodder:

Messi should have about 50 assists with the passes he's laid on for his team mates this season.

More than 50, I've seen Neymar miss a ridiculous lots of chances this year, with him it's not just assists it's quality assists for people who say he is a lesser player clearly don't watch him play.
Probably more consistent than Pelé and Maradona over the course of their career and more talented too, it's just ridiculous how good he is.
The man is a genius.
Obscene talent
somehow cal will tell us that yesterdays ronaldo's sitter parallels todays messis goals
By far the most gifted player I've seen.
I am grateful to be watching this genuis. Wonderful.
It's a privilege to watch him. Incredible player.
What a player.Pele and Madona have long been dethroned by Messi has the GOAT. I can't believe I once taught that Ronaldo in his prime was a better player. Arguably, he is close, but not better.
It's like he was giving everyone else an opportunity to shine and then just decided, feck it, let me do it myself.
God.
He just did to Bayern what he does so regularly in La Liga.
He is just in a different class. I don't care if he wins no trophies in the future, or that I disliked him a lot earlier, he is simply far ahead of anyone I've seen, and what I thought was possible.
Ballon D'Or performance, must be. Can't see Ronaldo topping that this season.
It's insane to think there could possibly be anyone who was better than him.
No words.
What a fecking goal. When football gives you orgasms.
Magical goals. Produces highlight reel moments when he needed too. When the ball fell to him in those 2 moments, there wasn't even any doubt, you just knew what was going to happen. It was just a joy to watch that inevitable action unfold. What a player.
We are lucky lucky lucky people to be able to watch this guy. The best sportsperson in the World. Unparalleled.
Exactly, I find it so laughable when people Ronaldo or Maradonna were better by a distance. Its just not possible.
2 goals and 1 assist. He destroyed Bayern.
Thats exactly what I think when I think of how good Pele/Maradona must have been
It makes my head hurt thinking that they could have been better.
He is indisputably the best player in the world. Ronaldo, as good as is, just isn't on the same level.
The way he beat Boateng and chipped Neuer was absolute class.
Hes the fecking best!
A joy to watch.

His new hair style is like a young Morrissey....

Not his biggest fan but that second goal was sensational.
He's just a joy to watch, oh how I wish it was possible for us to sign him. I forget he's still only 27 too, already going to go down as the best player of this generation.
