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?

Dombosslad What in the feck is that!
What in the feck is that!Play him in the middle and Bruno on the right.
Not ideal, but it could work well-ish. Or - to put it like this: if Bruno can contribute significantly if somewhat erratically from out wide, he's actually our best alternative in that position by some distance.
And it's arguably more important to have more of a "system player" in the middle, as part of a midfield configuration.
Put it like this: I prefer a functional if not optimal Bruno on the right (in, let's say, a "freer" role - although Bruno is more than capable of doing the actual leg work/pressing and so forth too) and Mount as a central AM to the alternative, which seems to be: Bruno as the central AM and...yes, who on the right?

And beyond that, Bruno's most impressive performance in 2023 was as a right side midfielder against Barcelona. I also suspect that Antony will be better centrally, he is good in tight spaces and his pressing/tracking back could see him mirror someone like Di Maria.
Sorry to revive it onto the new page but feck me Dombosslad is the worst thing I have ever seen
What the feck is a dombosslad
I think this too. Mount and Ericksen have to rotate that role, both of them have goals in them, and we need their genuine goal threat. Both Ericksen and Mount should be looking at least 10 goals each this season, and they both have the ability. This would add massively to our team. Bruno is intelligent enough to play on the right, he'll get chances, he can be creative, and he can also worry less about defending.
I had to google that dombosslad shit to figure out if that's actually a thing. Turns out this thread is the only thing that pops up and he just made that up himself
It has to be one of the worst names I've seen for a player ever

Yes, good point.
In fact, a "free-ish" sort of role often works well in a nominal wide position. As in: not a "right winger" or a "right wing forward" (or whatever)...but a right sided (attacking) midfielder (of some description).
Bruno's strength is his creativity, his ability to come up with a killer move. His strength is clearly not ball retention/recycling and/or being part of a set configuration. In theory, he should be able to play his natural game from out wide (and, as you say, he's actually done it too - even if the sample size is obviously small).
Stevie G, apparently.Dombosslad
Except the poster who came up with it can't have watched Stevie G too closely (because he was definitely not brilliant in every aspect as a midfielder).
An actual dombosslad (yes, it's an appalling term - hideous, in fact) would be, I dunno, someone like Lothar Matthäus.
My thoughts as well. I’ve been noticing this a lot more recently, there’s that other fella that claims to be a Bolton fan but it’s very clear he supports Arsenal. Why even bother? It’s fecking sad.Either that or very obviously being a Liverpool fan without declaring it.

There's a legitimate Chelsea fan on here who pretended to be a Man Utd fan for years and when he got outed he's now just a Chelsea fan
That's more of a 4-3-3 with a false 9 given Vini and Rodrygo are generally wingers
No its definiately a diamond, those two have been played as strikers this season.

No clue. Google suggested dominos saladDombosslad
When we signed Van de Beek, I initially thought we'd see a lot of Bruno playing killer balls coming in from the right with Donny making runs beyond the forward line. A bit like how Ajax used VDB and Ziyech. Something similar could work with Mount central.
@dumbo your salad?Dombosslad
Would rather see Mount out right with Bruno at #10 personally. He was good out there at Chelsea no? I'm not sure how he'd do with AWB but I could see him combining well with Dalot.
Very good half in his last outing, improved our link up and progression massively in the middle. He also has a engine on him and can help the team get hold of a midfield battle. I think we see a mid four of him, Cas, Amrabat and Bruno in this next game, which lookds quite strong and exciting.
Showed the traits the manager was looking for when he purchased him. The assist will do his confidence wonders and I’m hoping for a goal too soon. We have a few players now who are very flexible and I think this will be really invaluable over the season.
I can see when he builds chemistry with the players he will help us play some good football.

Very good at receiving the ball and turning into space.
Man Utd 0:1 Crystal Palace
Early days but he reminds me of Kagawa. Neat and tidy on the ball but largely ineffective. Very rarely provides line breaking passes
Half turn merchant. If he’s not in spaces to be played through on goal he offers very little
Should start ahead of Bruno as a 10.
Nothing player
One of our better players in the first half, faded in the second.
You should have just resigned Lingard.
Abysmal transfer for a multitude of reasons
There's no reason why he should be starting ahead of Hannibal.
Player that everyone knew was crap turns out to be crap. I’m shocked.
I actually thought he was good but for what he offers making him our priority midfield signing is hilariously bad business. He’s basically Ander Herrera
Actually a good description and comparison. That's what he was in the first half, in second he was just invisible.
He's a decent player but we all knew he's not what the team needed and getting our transfer priorities wrong will cost us again this season.
I don't rate him that level yet.
Not his worst game in a United shirt. Which is saying quite a lot considering it still wasn't a particularly eventful outing and he's really struggling to make an impression on games.
Pointless signing
He was, far better than Casemiro or Bruno. These posts all seem pre-written and a bit dumb tbh.
Nothing wrong with what was a tidy performance but Cas and Bruno were absolutely shocking
Plenty think he is good.
He was voted Chelsea's player of the season 2 years ago, dont you know.
Only him and Dalot stand out as players who actually showed up to play some football. How effective he was is another matter, but not the problem today.
Some positive signs after previously being very poor. Battled hard for the ball and a few moments of good linkup with the front players with chest controls and flicks. 7 tackles, 1 interception and 1 foul
Still much to improve on if hes going to be a worthy signing, but one of the least dissappointing performers today
