Brilliant performance. He didn't deserve to be on the losing side.

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?

That result takes away from a cracking performance from Rojo. More than the best of a bad bunch tonight.
Really good. Love the guy.
Started somewhat shaky but grew into the game and ended up putting a very good performance considering it being after such a long injury.
Should be more careful in situations like the uncalled penalty, though.

I love this man.
He gives us that fire. Rojo typifies

I didn't watch, but glad to hear my breh did well. Him and Bailly are so fun to watch because they truly dgaf.
Great display. Probably our best CBC with the ball at his feet and a damn fine defender as well.
Best player tonight! One of the positives from tonight. Really great to see him back!
I believe he really can be our main cb for the future. Decent on the ball and puts his body on the line for the team. We lost but that's no fault of his own, we would've lost by more without him.
Thought he was our best player. Some great blocks, a great strike, a commanding performance at the back. Nice to have our LCB again
Sooner we can get a partnership going of Bailly and Rojo the better.
Clearly the way forward.

Very strong return, the only real bright spot of the evening.
He's our best centre-back IMO. Great to have him back.
Give us some Bailey-Rojo combo
The thing about Bailly-Rojo as a defensive partnership is that, at worse, it'll be a right fecking laugh.
@Witchking my man delivers again
victor who ? welcome back rojo
Didn't see the match, but i was on your side since the beginning of the year. Rojo has become a very stable player for United. Shame his first start after so long ended in a loss.
Showed fire tonight. The only player who did. Very good display.
Thought he was fantastic, really nice to see 1 of our defenders play with composure on the ball and pick out some good forward passes.
He’s obviously been training for a while as he looks really sharp.

Pretty sure Ibra's injury was more severe, hence the longer time frame originally anticipated for Ibra.
Man of the match purely on the basis that he hasn't played for seven months and even though we conceded I thought he did really well.
Definition of proper revovery so far.
Just wow.
Just wow.
His intensity and sheer effort really stood out on a night when too many players were taking it easy. Enjoyed seeing a central defender who wants to pass the ball forwards. Not a perfect performance but very encouraging.
His transformation has been remarkable. Remember everyone wanting him sold last summer. I think he is a truly top class centre-back now and he will prove it again this season.
How Rojo plays for united now and how he played then is so different... having him on our side shows that united have depth in the defense.
Lol no, some of us have been his fans from day one.
I don't really know since there was no actual report on the severity of their respective injuries. The general consensus on here is that an ACL injury usually takes about 9 months. Ofcourse Zlatan being well into his 30's means a 7 months recovery time is phenomenal. But I admire Rojo as well. To comeback and play as well as he did and even sustain it for 90 mins is really impressive.
as long as i remember, the only time he played badly was as LB , as CB he always did well , he played there until he dislocated his shoulder and did well
According to Di Marzio and Duncan Castles, Ibrahimovic tore both his ACL and PCL. In Rojo's case, I think it was just the ACL. Obviously a torn ACL is a massive injury regardless, and it's good to see Rojo back because I think on form, he's our best CB.
Just like with Pogba, it makes me think that both of them were fit for a while but the club waited for their fitness to reach 120% before playing them. If it also made them avoid the recent international friendlies, all the more be
Cheers for that info. Even today, I read a report where Zlatan said his ACL injury was even more complicated than what it seemed. So yeah, it's just great to have both back.
Don't know who our best CB is anymore they all have their days when they're brilliant.
Except for Lindelof...
Yeah, he has struggled.
Brilliant to have him back!! Slotted in like he was in the team all along!!
His performance deserved a clean sheet at minimum but our fullbacks decided to have an off day. Happy to have him back
Unfortunately true

This back five is strong enough to contend for PL imo. But to win it? We need a better LB, or at least a better back-up LB.
Darmian is miserable at LB. Blind is the slowest footballer I've ever seen. Shaw is out of Mourinho's sight. We welcome you Rose.

It's great to have him back really.I missed him and his passionate play.Some guys think and say that he only started playing well with Mourinho but for me he was great under LVG as well.Maybe that's because we used him as a left-back occasionally where he can be sloppy at times.But he was always great as a CB.
