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?

If greenwood, Sancho & Antony leave we surely will make a move for him?
Hope we see movement in the couple of weeks after the cup final, would be great to get it done early and move on to the next one.
That would be mint if that happens. Far better for us.
Absolutely, anyone else you’d like? Maybe we can throw in Eze for you as well. Or the kitman.
Guehi, Eze, Wharton and Olise. Cheers
Relax. You aren't going to keep all of them for sure . If anything, it's a testament to your way of running club.
It's a compliment to you guys.
Now that you mention it.. Eze is quite good too. Fancy Rashford in exchange?
..and so it begins.
No of course we’re not. Guehi is a definite gonner, 2 years left and he won’t sign a new deal. Olise also likely to go but also not totally impossible that he stays.
Wharton however, he’s played 16 games for Crystal Palace after talking to us for well over a year, having been convinced that Palace is the ideal place for him to develop. He’s got a platform to play every game and has just got in to the provisional England squad. Why on earth would he want to leave Palace at this point (having just moved South) and even moreso, why would we have any inclination to sell him given who else might leave? Silly suggestions like that are what wind me up

That’s a negative.
Sancho?
How much of the £300k a week are you subsidising on that?
It already begun a while back, luckily Dougie Freedman just signed a new contract!..and so it begins.
So you like that idea
Of course, Utd make everyone look sh*t
He's still a brilliant player in the right hands/system.We got a deal, money for Olise and Sancho for EzeOf course, Utd make everyone look sh*t
He’s on less than that. You will be fine. He’ll be back in South London too!
Done. Sancho for Eze and £200m for Olise.
The release clause says 55The release clause is only for offers from champions league clubs.
Trust UTD to screw that up as well.
Oh dear. We can chuck in AWB?

We want every left footed RW and every LB in world football.
Us (Chelsea) going for Olise is about as dumb as us looking at McKenna and Maresca to be our manager.
We’re loaded with players in attacking midfield as it is and have bought about 15 “wonder kids” that play on the wings for huge money, too. Spending £60m+ on Olise would be ridiculous.

Literally about to spend a bunch on the next big thing and flashy winger from Brazil too
No clue what the thinking would be spending 60m on Olise with the embarrassment of riches already in the wide areas.
Sounds like a very scatterbrained approach but that's pretty much what it's been since Boehly got there.
Oops. It probably doesn't matter in the end. It depends on where the player wants to go.
Can you name the players making up the 'embarrassment of riches' who have proven recent fitness levels and are first team ready?
We have Mudryk, Sterling, Madueke and Palmer. That's it. Mudryk will probably go out loan. Sterling will be sold at the drop of a hat. And then we have the sickbay stalwarts Nkunku and Carney.
There is nothing scatterbrained about the strategy. Some are bought for immediate first team action, some for the multiclub-loan system. Olise just makes sense - age profile, PL experience, already knows the club, more of a playmaker which we sorely lack when Nkunku is out (and maybe Palmer rested).
What’s £53m Lavia up to these days?
And Estevão.

And Paez. And neither will be available for next season.
Regardless, they both need to visit the Sorting Hat before we'll know for sure where they'll fit in.
Olise’s next club are going to have woo him with a compelling footballing vision and a massive wedge. Man Utd cant do the first right now.
appraently chelsea botched their signing attempt. They met the release fee, Palace said : ok, you can now talk to him….and they just didnt.
Olise only makes sense for Chelsea if Madueke goes the opposite way in the deal. I quite like Madueke, but Olise is a different level of prospect. If we could get rid of Sterling, I suppose you could move Palmer away from the RW but realistically we’d have 3 left footed RWs and then Mudryk as the sole LW.
How capable is Olise in playing off the left? I’m pretty convinced Madueke can’t do it and it would be a waste of Palmer’s talent to shove him out of position.

If Chelsea were an insect they would be a wasp.
A LW makes a lot more sense for Chelsea in my view but sometimes there’s logic in just signing the best player you can.
If they want to compete on all fronts next year, Chelsea could easily play 65 fixtures next season with the new European format (which adds 2-4 fixtures prior to the knockouts) and the Club World Cup. You need a deep squad.

"I'm signing for FA Cup winner."
As funny as this is, somehow I picture Woordard and Judge doing negotiations just like this
