In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

Me too. Does not fit the profile of the striker we need. Then again, Real aren’t that dumb.I'm getting excited at the thought of Real Madrid buying him, I hope it happens
Arsenal 1:3 Man Utd
You’re a winger now son.
2 world class assists, even if the rest of his performance was average you can't knock that out. Deserves MOTM for these 2 assists for me.
Assists aside let's be honest he was gash
Good game, was well up for it.
Always better when he's not being asked to play as a target man.
Time to really praise his contribution. 2 very good assists. Well done Rom
Must give him credit tonight. What I can see is he is trying to learn how to play football. Looks to have been working on his game.
Been a working theory for a while that he may be better from the right, and for the first time in a long time we posed a threat from that area of the pitch.

2 really good assists but not so great other than that. Still, he made the difference and deserves a lot of credit.
A really sexy 5 minutes... Something to build on
Yessir im in here. Haters beware!
2 very good assists, but he must improve on that performance still. He can and he will.
Both assists were classy and deserves the MOTM.....
Turns out he plays better when there’s less pressure on his first touch, who would have thought.
I like this right winger we have here.

Like I said, he'll have his uses. He's not good enough to be an automatic name on the teamsheet but you need quality depth, especially up top, and Ole is finding a way to keep them all happy.
2 brilliant assists and nearly killed a man. A good nights work.
He was destroying Arsenal's defender whole game. Plus two assists. Excellent game
2 assists, the first being quality, but I thought his overall performance was quite lacking. The second half was shocking especially.
Played like shit, won us the game Those passes were brilliant though, especially the first one.
My main issue with him today had probably more to do with Solskjaer than with him. Arsenal constantly had numerical advantage on the left — and it's okay when it's in a quick attack, but when they have 3 attackers against 2 defenders for a minute and Lukaku still doesn't come back... we were lucky that their left wing was awful today (even though they still created one goal from there).

Football ain't for you chief.
He is getting the numbers, his numbers should be very good under Ole. IIRC 3 goals and 2 assists in around 230 mins.
His first assist was absolute quality. Great game from him today.
I think that was the calculated risk he decided to take. Same happened against Spurs.Played like shit, won us the game

We've been screaming to try Lukaku on the right and it worked. He seems to play better when the pressure is off him. Very good player to have up top.
Weird
Amazing for 10 min, he played like Henry and after that he played like Lukaku

Great assists by the big fella. Really happy for him. Keep it up, Rom!
That was our strategy really. Allow their full backs to get forward and hit them on the break. We create a 3v2 upfront while they have the numerical advantage on the wing. We can't have Lukaku follow their full back around and also play on the counter. We took the risk and reaped the rewards.Played like shit, won us the game

It was 100% calculated risk. Don't know how someone could miss this.
First assist in particular was very deft and he showed good awareness on the second as well, credit where it's due, he was awful in the second half but played 2 key parts in us winning the game.
Yeah, but still, with Lingard or Rashford on the wing you have a different situation. They don't participate much in defending and their role is to be ready to break forward, yet somehow they don't hurt the team shape the same way Lukaku did tonight. I don't think that he's physically capable of performing that role though.
Great pass, well done Rom .
.BBC man of the match, but yeah, you know best. He had a great first half!
He was wank (2 great assist aside).His first touch in the 29th minute started a good chance for Arsenal.
Given by Jenas who spoke shite all night long
Lukaku played like that for Everton, constantly drifting out wide. He's not a traditional striker despite being an absolute tank. His judgement of aerial balls is one of the worst in the league, and his play back to goal is mediocre. He is however near unplayable when running into space.
I've said this before, but if Lukaku had a good touch it'd be cheating because he is a freight train when he gets going. He doesn't have a good touch because he is so big and strong.
