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?
Look at how happy he looks 
Hmm soo thats why the delays. So he won't feature for a few games. Annoying
When we said we wanted a replacement for Martial we didn't mean like that.
I see they’ve sat him in the same little cupboard where they keep Mason Mount…Tweet

So we’ve finally signed a #9 but he won’t play for a few weeks.. you couldn’t make this shit up.
The only way is up to be fair. Welcome Rasmus, i believe in you.
When ETH demanded ‘a number 9 to replace Martial’, Murtough truly delivered - finding him a 9 goal a season player who’s already injured.
They just made it up so we could sell Martial first, to give Rasmus the 9.
Simple logic!
Welcome home, Rasmus. Gotta love signing for your boyhood club.
Unfortunately we’re going to need him to contribute straight away. Still don’t have any goal scorers in this team bar Rashford and Bruno.
Again, he’s not currently injured but because he was with Atalanta, who didn’t disclose it (they probably didnt know) he just isn’t match fit, he’s not currently still injured
Hopefully the missing link, im tired of seeing Rashford jogging around whenever he plays striker.
Welcome. Sucks he is injured, wonder when we will see him start in the league.
Welcome to the club Højlund! Love how happy he looks. A shame we've gotta wait further to see him in action as he's the signing I'm most excited for but tbh I expected he'd be introduced gently over a few weeks before bedding him in so this delay's not too much of a setback.
Comms team's gotta start upping its game though, his photoshoot is a mirror for Mount's announcement.

Is he seriously injured?
We need him asap. Even if he doesn't score immediately, he'll press and occupy the centrebacks. At worst, he's a better Weghorst.
Disappointing that he's not fit to feature yet - not just because we need a fit #9, but also it's not going to help him acclimatise if he misses the start of the season and has feel his way into the season and try to find match fitness after everyone else has already got up to speed with a few games under their belt.
Makes a lot more sense though why we delayed announcing it until today. Never made much sense why we wouldn't just announce it earlier in the week and have him feature in one of the games. An issue with the medical / him not being fit to feature makes more sense than just doing it for a PR reveal.

I keep saying that but to no avail for some.
Promising payer, but not worth the fee. Scored nine goals in leauge last season out of Atalanta’s 66. For ten million more we could have got Kane.
I was telling people Ten Hag won't starts him right away and some folks wouldn't listen.
Him being slowly integrated, until he catches up to the fitness required by Ten Hag as well as trained properly in his system was always going to be the minimum of what he'd take before he starts.
Caseimiro was in the same boat last year. Had a pre season with Madrid but sat for several weeks until he was Ten Hag fit and learned the system.
Tem Hag only plays players he's worked with before right away. It's been like that.

We wont see him start a game before September anyway. I thought that was quite obvious. He is 20.
Ooof
Can we bring in a striker to cover for him? Sick note already on ETHs desk
Not too worry about him being few weeks off injured. We have Rashford and Garnacho there.
They say few weeks. I'd expect him to make his debut off the bench in the Forest game.
The most Danish hair ever.

Let's go kid
Wonder if he was wearing trousers to cover up for the injury
A striker with pace that will run his socks off. I am here for it.
Pace is gone after this injury.A striker with pace that will run his socks off. I am here for it.
Beautiful stuff!
Bummer...
