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?

Zouma's now Chelsea's top scorer in the league 
Burnley is too predictable nowadays. And also they lack of pace.
Lampard is turning them slowly into Mourinho's Chelsea.
Watch them raise their game when we play them...Cnuts
Enjoying Burnley's downfall. Shit team with a fantasy narrative concocted around them with regards to limited resources. Purely by virtue of being in the Prem they earn more than many, many historic European teams.
What are you sipping right now? Last week I was sipping some white rum
obviously the most logical approach!3 0 great finish werner

Werner
Werner
Perfect placement and weight of pass from Ziyech as well.
2004 to 2006 version? I'll take that.
Time Werner.
Great pass from Ziyech, those runs are the ones Werner thrived on at Leipzig.
Fecking hell though Burnley are horrendous

Scored on minute 69. Nice.
Burnley and Sheff Utd look fecked this season. I still think Sheff Utd might be able to dig themselves out but it’s time Burnley fecked off.
Why is Lampard putting two keepers on the bench?No seriously why
Can anyone tell me how Chelsea set up today, please? I've just seen the lineup and have noticed Kante is the only recognised centre midfielder in the team.
Got to say chelsea have been organised and defended well in the past few games. But seriously Burnley are shite.
Box to box. Good at running with the ball. Reminds me of Matic when he dribbles, but different types of players regard their roles. He was impressive today.
Probably not to completely shatter Kepa's confidence.
No seriously why
Chelsea played Wed-Sat.
That's the same as Thursday-Sunday.
Just shows that the Europa league excuse is a bit lame. Just means your squad isnt good enough.

433, two number 8s. Like when Pep set up with KDB and David Silva in a 3 man midfield.
What is the right back doing there. He left Werner in acres
It's because Pulisic got injured at the tail end of the warm-up and most of our reserve options who traveled wouldn't have been ready at kick off.
No seriously why
If you can set him up like that and he can make his runs, he's good.
Otherwise he does feck all game long.
Kepa's not one of them even! Got a shoulder injury in training so didn't travel.
Or perhaps it shows how you’d ideally want to play the team at the bottom of the league after playing in Europe mid-week?
Why are Chelsea not drawing/losing? They had a midweek game. You're supposed to drop points after midweek European games and then claim "fatigue!".
Think this will be the season for Burnley.
Paying for having the worst transfer window of any club in the league

Both havertz and mount have been great today both put a shift in defensively
Reece James has been Chelsea's best player since the beginning of the season. Too bad we could not get both siblings.
Bit of recency bias here for me - Burnley have been poor this season yes but I'd be hard pressed to call away at Turf Moor an easy fixture, especially as it's our 3rd away game in a row (all of which involved not-insignificant travel).
They also didn't get out of 2nd gear against Kransnodar and there's 5 subs in European competition.
Eh, other than Pulisic, Chelsea's all other first team players are also out injured?
Wouldn't it be better to put an outfield reserve player instead?
Would boost the confidence of such player and who knows Lampard may even need one in this expected fatigue-inducing season.
You got me to check the team sheet now as I thought Čech would be the third one for a second . But it's some other guy I've never heard of.
Fair enough. Looks to have worked, and you've got the perfect holding midfielder in Kante to allow it to work, just like Fernandinho did for City.
Who did Lamps play as the 8's?
