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?

One of my favourite players... A good age to be buying him and he seems pretty good value
But...
There is something nagging away and I'm not convinced he's what we need right now
I just don't see how he fits into a formation that suits other players or him.
He could play on the right of a front three but it is not his most natural role
He could play as a centre forward perhaps a little like firminiho with a focus on dropping for deep and creating for wide players (martial and rashford?) ... But I think rashford is better suited to a central role
He could play as a no10 with rashford ahead and 2 wide players... But then we have pogba in a midfield 2 which I don't think gives him the freedom to be at his best.
Perhaps ole has a cunning plan... And I hope so because I think he's a great player but I just can't quite picture it at the moment

If we're signing him then one would hope the role we have in mind for him is one that a) suits him perfectly and b) was already part of our tactical plans. As opposed to it being a "too good to pass up" signing.
If we but him and stick him in the RW spot then I will be less than impressed.

He is an adidas athlete as well. Cocks well and truly out lads!
Darmian is that you?
So when are we tracking planes?
James played on the right tonight.
Ed is not buying them if Ole doesnt want them. Ole wants him, simple asAnother Argie being sold against his will and practically forced to come here? Yep definitely another Di Maria but you just know somewhere Ed is sat with a stonking hard on thinking of the merch
Di Maria's heart was not 100% in it but tbf he was never going to be a success the way LVG used him and the style of football we played. Meanwhile, Dybala would be coming into a more suitable attacking system.
Its happening mate.
Time for a thread title change? “Waiting on flight tracker status”?
I couldn’t come up with any joke titles on short notice...

Not to mention Ole saying in his Molde days he’d love to add “top top players like Dybala or Ronaldo” any given chance
The Juve fans on twitter are hilarious.
He may still reject us by all accounts.
He has 32m followers on Instagram, wears Adidas....a sponsorship dream for Ed and co. Get him signed!
Bobby Zamora's car must be huge.

I think there is more chance of that happening if Juve still wanted to keep him and we are the only ones pushing for the deal. But they want him out. And there doesn’t seem to be another club in for him.
Spurs were in for him wasn't they?
They want him gone, the higher ups and Sarri. The fans want him to stay. At the end of the day he will leave and we are there to pick him up. He can reject us, but he might be sitting on the bench for plenty of games
Pogbala.
Yeah, they made a 50m bid. They wont be paying 100m
Translation?
Think it’s just paper talk. There is no way they are offering close to 80-90m cash for him straight up.
Lukaku is worth pure gold at the moment. Someone wrap him up in cotton wool
Basically ‘I saw you guys together at Juve, not United’
Yep.
Juvé are going haywire and are ready to mortgage their future to go all in for a CL win this season. Just look at the Kean signing without a buy back clause and now willing to ship out Dybala for more goals after 1 write off season where it wasn’t even his fault because the team played totally different from years past.
They were but the whole deal's taking place because they want Lukaku, Spurs can only offer straight up cash.
Bring him in
‘The ravioli is lovely at the Juventus, none at United. Crying face.’
"But I wanted you together with Juve, not with United"
Never been so useful
it's ok we will give Sanchez Lukaku's money
I hope he isn't another Alexis Sanchez where he won't fit in any position.
Where will Dybala play anyway?

Seems like a square peg for round hole situation. Doesn’t seem like a played Ole would go for, and doesnt really fit any position in the 4-2-3-1.
Aye
Havent watched him play have you?
