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.
Sbragia hates Buffonge.
No Gomes in the squad.
We need to get rid of Sbragia asap.

feckin hell contain your hate.My wanting him out has nothing to do with Gomes.
Gives us something new to drool over Tahith.
Goalless at half time but we really should be a goal up.
This is the best I've seen the 23's play in a long time, especially against 2nd in the league.
Also good to see Gribbin out there playing well, his passing ability is elite.

Gribbin is so good at spotting the pass
Liverpool score from a direct free kick which our keep should've done better on...
Hamilton goes off injured, Buffonge on to replace him..
Riley equalizes 1-1
10 minutes to go
Riley's been really good. He should be out loan.
Penalty to United
Gribbin scores....
United lead 2-1
Huge. Well deserved. Will be huge points won. And ruin Liverpools chances.
Hopefully a good omen for tomorrow!
Full time 2-1 to United, fantastic performance all round against a title chasing Liverpool on their own patch.
I would like to see Riley take Darmian’s place in the first team squad.
Fighting chance to stay up. Remaining fixtures Swansea and Man City away, then Everton at home.
Gribbin and Riley were very good. Really hope Gribbin can push on now, he's very very talented and I definitely think there could be a place for him in the first team if he has the desire and the discipline. He's been desperately missed in this team. The u23s should have done much better this season and I would blame Sbragia, his team selections and injuries to key players

Riley has always been good despite the underperforming side in general.
Change of manager seems to be required - followed by some clarity as to who is leaving, going on loan, or moving up to 1st team. I'd like to see a bit more fluidity between fringe of 1st team squad and 23s - to my mind, TFM and Axel should be playing 30 games each between the two teams next season - and training for 1st team should not preclude them from stepping down for game time.
Lets sensibly promote the best of the 18s and build a strong unit who are a couple of years off loans or promotion - we've seen it work well at city and Chelsea and I think it's the way forward, albeit with an eye on senior appearances ultimately.

Probably best the 23s have played all season, they couldn't do it again could they ?

Any videos of Chong?
True - but if United pick up 10 Points from their last 4 games, they should probably make it. Spurs and Derby play each other, and both also have some fairly tough games remaning. Our problem is that away game to City, they will probably give Everything to send us down.
