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?
Premier League defending is at all time best level it seems. None of to comical defending stuff they have in other leagues.
First impression for me are he's more Claudio Bravo/Barthez than Ederson, A good keeper but severely over estimates his own ability on the ball. Premiership is the hardest league for a keeper like him as they don't get the same time on the ball. I think he will be the type of keeper that can be world class against superior strikers like Aguero & Hazard but struggles against lesser but more aggressive bull dog type players like Troy Deeney & Mitrovic.
Fulham take lead at Brighton against the run of play. Schurrle. TFM involved.
Fulham 1-0 up, TFM in to Seri & Schurrle finished it off.
Lovely goal by Fulham
Incredible assist from Seri.
Alonso hits the post.
Fulham showing us how it's done.

Bournemouth have been very good. The only defensive brainfart on display in the first half was David Luiz' usual shocker.
Yes and we were nowhere near the eventual league champions either.
We won our first four games too before the less than stellar performances started costing us points...
Still can’t believe Seri chose Fulham. Mental.
Not watching the game, but this Seri guy is looking like a great buy for Fulham.
Top passer of the ball. Can see why he was named 'the African Xavi'.

Did he have other serious offers?
Supposedly we wanted him. Could just be paper bollocks though.
It’s a travesty.. strongly linked to Barcelona, even United at some point, ends up in Fulham and their shite ground due to English clubs having so much money. He gets to live in London of course, which is great, but come on...
That Seri assist reminds me of the Scholes flick to Rooney v Milan in the Champions League.
Southampton take lead at Palace. Ings.
How can you be upset about that mate? I love seeing quality players spread out through the league. Makes it far more interesting. I would enjoy his performance much more at Fulham than if he were at Barcelona.
I think he is wise. Won't be an immediate starter at Barca. He might aim for higher than Spurs or Arsenal who were linked. Assume he wishes to live the good life in London while building up his rep at Fulham and eventually moving to a big club.
Chelsea struggling to create anything in open play, Hazard dwelling with the ball too often and without any effect. If a goal comes in it will probably be from a set-piece
Steve Sidwell describing Seri...'he's got that Kante mould where he can do the defensive work and also Naby Keita where he breaks play up and gets forward'
Granted we've had the worst start of the top 6, but the other guys doesn't look impossible to overcome. Chelsea not being that great in this game.
Absolutely
So his playing style just happens to resemble that of two other small black guys. What a coincidenceSteve Sidwell describing Seri...'he's got that Kante mould where he can do the defensive work and also Naby Keita where he breaks play up and gets forward'
How can you miss that?
Chelsea should have been under now, two huge chances from Wilson and Ake. Game should open up now in the final thirty, been a sordid affair
Mitrovic gets the second for Fulham. 0-2.
Funny how Newcastle need goals and two strikers he has shunted out Gayle and Mitrovic have both scored.

Oh look, if you attack Brighton you can score against them relatively easily. Who knew?
Dunno why Sarri's not put Pedro on yet. Willian and Hazard together are superfluous
Cheers Fulham.
I mean I thought we were pretty awful against Brighton but you lads just proved it today.

Palace keeper saves Charlie Austin penalty.
Fulham bearing Brighton and we couldn’t.
Taking your chances when you get them wins games. We have to do that.Cheers Fulham.

Honestly fail to see whether Willian would have improved us much. Ed was right to veto this one, if at all there was a chance of this transfer.
Murray pulls a goal back for Brighton.
Seems like West Ham will stay bottom after today as well, they are dire.
TFM way out of position for the goal, but what was that second CB doing there? Horrendous defending
Called it
Pedro scores for Chelsea.
