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?

Why not play Lingard and Martial ffs?
We’ve not played terribly in general tbf, but as usual certain individuals feck things up and our little bit of quality gets snuffed out. My early worries about Ole, are he’s already picking his favorites at a cost to the team. If he’s to succeed here he needs to scrap the majority of this lineup, or else we might as well pack it in. Most of this lot have failed the club since SAF’s retirement, time to start a new.
His tactis for this match have been spot on, but we are being let down by the usual defensive lapse and the usual suspects..
Ole can play his best team and best tactics and can still mean nothing if his players are shit or Messi is playing.
That goes for a lot of teams.
As for Young, Dalot hasn’t inspired confidence defensively, so I can see why he’s stuck with him. Getting to the point where it’s getting indefensible, though.
Probably doesn’t trust Martial enough to track back. Really hope we sign a good full back in the summer.
Not the worst half but it's on him and the management that Young is still pretty much a first name on the teamsheet. He always talks how he trusts youngsters but at the same time we don't trust someone like Dalot playing as RB. Disappointing.
I don’t understand the Dalot at lwb thing., other than that he has done well so far in his game plan. Maybe he will do something that changes my mind in the next 45 min.
Don't agree, we were awful in the first 15 and basically let them score. They had about 85% possession to start the game. Since then it's been good I agree.
We’re playing 3 at the back with wing backs, there aren’t any other options unfortunately
For the last month or so, I can't see any difference from how we played under Mourinho. We still park the bus and are scared of the better sides.
We're still a very negative team. It's just Ole knows how to say the right things instead.
I hope I'm wrong but I dont know, something just feels off with Ole & the coaching team. Not looking forward to next season at all atm.

This was my worry from the start. Our playing style is way too simplistic.
Are we all watching the same game here?
He’s just been watching and pointing at the game and yet young and rashford are still on the pitch. I have no idea what he’s watching. Clueless.
Dalot off, young stays on 
Many things could have been better, but this is a performance with way more stuff in it than the Sevilla games, it must be admitted. Credit atleast for not embarrassing us as Jose did.
Well done to him for getting us to at least be competitive here, but those subs... How did Young stay on?!
If Rashford, Young and Lingard are considered starters for us next season, it will be more of the same.
Awful decision making today.
It's usually not a good sign when your managers personal biases/favouritism cloud what's happening on the pitch
His inexperience tonight showed.
Terrible.
His substitutions are baffling.
Some odd substitutions.
For the life of me, I simply cannot understand his persistence with Young...
Shit formation, shit tactics and shit subs. This Barca are nowhere as good as the earlier teams we played and yet it was routine win for them. We huffed and puffed a lot without creating anything.
Also, that makes it 4 losses in last 5. Still baffled as to why the board felt an urgency to hand him the job before the season was out.

The most ridiculous decision (when we didn’t need to make a decision) since Saf left? I would absolutely say so. Garbage.
Ok what would you have done differently?
He's had a good night. Some of you need to chill the feck out.
He really didn't
Not a single shot on target, at home.. pathetic. Another defeat to add to the list since he got the job on a perm. I’m so glad he hired him when we did.
Think Ole was guilty of trying to be too clever tonight. Leaving Young on all game was baffling.
Did not need to be given a contract before the season was over.
Losing at OT without a shot on target is now considered a good night for us? feck off
Wut?
How can you leave young on? He has his pets, that's for sure.
His tactics are quite good.. His subs are poor either too late or damage the rhytm of the game.
I can't believe this place.
We've had the better of the game against Barca, had some awful reffing decisions against us and are still very much in the tie, with a manager who was handed the impossible task in December and hasn't had any real time to work on fitness and his plan with the team. Sadly our luck has just run out when we needed it with us - we are in that rut of playing well, but losing games - a really bad place to be, but I'm sure we'll dig ourselves out of it.
To be giving Ole grief about this is hugely unfair. We can still go through.

Hate to say it but he's been poor the last few games, culminating in this. We were set up all wrong to begin with tonight and then the subs 
Is he not comfortable in his position yet and scared of taking the dressing room favourites off?
