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.

Type of situation where Sir Alex in the past would take him out of the squad altogether for a few weeks. Get his shit together then bring him back in. He's young and will be inconsistent, but he's been in horrendous form and just looks really frustrated. Really don't think he should be starting even if Martial is injured, as it just shows that him having a shit performance means nothing and he'll keep starting. Needs to work and improve as this isn't good enough atm. I'm sure he will, but this is bad.
Love the kid, but he's been difficult to watch at times today. People blaming the manager for a Manchester United first-teamer having competition for his place have lost sight of reality. We are so lucky to have two such exciting prospects as Martial and Rashford, but we still need them to do the business. I really didn't like his body language to Jones when he misplaced a pass back, let's hope he picks his head up and comes out to play in the second.
The manager needs to be providing more guidance as well. Like I keep saying, Jose needs to add to his coaching team, and get someone to work specifically with our attackers. At this stage in his development he needs a lot of guidance.
Will be at Everton/Southampton/Leicester in 2 or 3 years.
Guy is a footballing idiot. No talent will compensate for that.

Like @kouroux states, he has one trick (can't even call it that), kick and run/run in a straight line... and he ends up kicking the ball too far to catch up with it.
That’s because he often pushes the ball too much or too far away from him when running. Some describe it as lack of close control.
Based on what exactly?
He adds absolutely nothing, there’s no doubt he’s on welbecks/Walcotts level and doesn’t look like passing that stage either.
His set pieces are awful.
His decision making is God damn awful. Just keeps on running only to take the ball out. Jose must have a word with him.
His free kicks are very good, corners are awful.
Martial should be starting ahead of him every single game (I know he has a knock today, speaking in general). And if not him, we need a January signing to keep Rashford from our starting XI. Not giving up hope or anything, but at this point in his career he's not good enough to be starting for us. He's trying to do everything on his own and it's hurting us.
Maybe he is in the wrong sport. That kinda dribbling is past it, belongs to the previous millenium
Give over with this Martial nonsense, he's playing equally as bad and as done for the last 2 seasons, Rashford's on a 2 and half game bad patch.
Not exactly. Some, infact a lot players make their career off this, just not the top players though unless they’re are exceptional at other things like finishing and so on.
Put it this way, if Rashford gets a goal this match, then most folks would claim he played well.

He is not a winger, should play him as striker or bench him. We need 2 real wingers (fast paced, lot of trickery) who can beat the man for fun.
May be we should try 4-4-2 with lukaku + rashford or lukaku + martial and bring 2 real wingers.
Any ways i just don't like how our team (Mourinho teams) play. The style of football is really poor, when a team press, we don't have options.
I think we should have bought in a coach with "Possession" based football with more attacking philosophy...since van gal have instilled possession based football.

Lingard is a better player than him, if some haven't realized yet.
Lingard is also further along in his development as a player, seeing as he is 5 years older.
Lingard is 5 years older, he wasn't at 20 years old.
Let's see how good Rashford is at 25, i suspect lots of people are going to be left with egg on their face put it that way.
Rashford is tragic...
He really is hopeless. He's got more legs than he's got braincells.
He's a selfish wee shit is what he is. He goes for the whip into goal from every free kick he takes.
What's wrong with this kid? Kinell zero brain cells.
Should be dropped for a very long time
Basically a faster Danny Welbeck
Far too greedy.
Welbeck problem is that he was not greedy enough. Although his finishing was atrocious, he was a good player for us and always worked for the team, something Rashford has not been doing.
You'd think some of the morons posting today would have learnt a lesson from the bollocks they were posting in the Lingard thread for two years, but alas.
Offered absolutely nothing all game.
Very true.
So people can't criticise rubbish performance anymore, thanks for clearing that for everyone
I was talking about his movement and runs.
Based on what he has shown us before
He has a bad game but that doesn't erase what he has shown before.
Takes too long on the ball and cannot cross. Never mind his poor dribbling.
Don’t care if it’s Malcolm or whoever, we badly need a winger.

It'd be wrong to write him off, but those lambasting him for his selfish behaviour on the pitch are well within their rights. He has resorted to blasting every ball near him straight at goal, regardless of whatever options are available. His attitude is appalling at the moment.
Needs to be dropped, he isnt good enough for a starting berth.
Rubbish again. Completed the game just because Martial wasn't there.
He should never start again till he sorts himself out.

One goal behind Welbeck's record for us in 48 less games. Poor today mind.
How about you try reading the thread form todays game and then have a think about whether I'm just talking about people saying he played poorly today.
We get a freekick in a threatening area. What does Rashford do? Blast it at 100mph for a goal kick. The guy literally wastes opportunities for fun. He's young, we all understand that but there are things that he does which he clearly doesn't need to that frustrate me and maybe others.
