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?

Onana has already said he is staying at Ajax another season Why would Mike Maignan go to Ajax? That does not make any sense. Plus Ajax has young keepers like Kotarski and Scherpen
Swap Oblak with DDG + cash. DDG will have to take a pay cut perhaps but since he is returning to Madrid and have CL football, why should he be complaining....
What was our offer to Ajax?
On a second note, why must we often pussyfoot around another clubs’ release prices for players only to not get the player when the difference between the two numbers was negligible, especially to a club like ours? We don’t want to pay that last five to ten million as if it would be an affront to Manchester United to do so, especially if we narcissistically think that the release prices hold some sort of ‘United tax.’ Who gives a feck if we pay ten million more these days with the average release price being so drastically higher than recent years with no abating in sight? We win no silverware by trying to buy on the cheap, we only miss out on potentially helpful players.
Why not Romero/Henderson? Romero is already a reliable international GK with a lot of experience. Henderson is proven as one of the, if not the best GK in a highly competitive league.
Castle saying we're asking about Onana, whilst Ajax are looking at Mike Maignan of Lille as a replacement, who was voted best GK in Ligue 1.
Has anyone been watching Maignan consistently? How good is he?

He is really good I have no idea why he would go to Ajax at this stage of his career.
Yeah, not a great step up is it? I'm gonna make a little thread on him.
Thomas Strakosha, at Latzio. Good shot stopper. Excellent distribution. Not so great in commanding his box, but who is? Weakness: has been known to spill the ball sometimes.
Been impressed recently with Bartlomiej Dragowski, Empoli keeper. Top notch reflexes and although still very raw has shown that can be good under pressure. Not hesitant to leave his line either.
I would be shocked if anyone bid 80/90m that we would want for DDG this summer knowing they can get him for free next year, can see him staying this season and running down his contract before moving to Madrid/PSG for free next summer.
If that is the case, then happy for Henderson to have another year on loan at Sheff United and then hopefully he will be ready to step in and be our number 1 for the foreseeable future.
If we did somehow get money for DDG this summer then happy to give Romero a chance this season with Henderson going on loan for the coming season.

We've already been linked I believe, but I do believe that Gianluigi Donnarumma would be a nice fit for us! ll depends and the money situation though, if we went for him I can see us spending too much.
1. Some goalies I hear people mention. Mostly younger.
2. Any young goalie prospects I left out certainly have save per goal conceeded ratio less than 2.
2. Two anomalous results are included (540 minutes, only 6 matches). First because he's been talked about in connection with United (Vlachodimos) but has no Squawka stata. Vlachodimos stats are UEFA CL group stage matches.
3. They're sorted in descending order of save per goal conceeded in the image.
