Bold of you to assume we’d go 1-0 up.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Huge game at Wembley. If he somehow manage to win there. Uf
Should have sacked Jose long long ago. So many winnable games we squandered because of his shite, could have been in a much better position.
Let's see, but spurs are different ball game all together as they have more fitter and mobile players in the midfield and a better defense.
We certainly have to work a lot harder defensively to match them in the middle of the park.
Avoid defeat at Wembley and we're in there.
The loss will set us back. A draw is good. Win is magnificent.

West Ham-Newcastle was the time Woodward gave it serious thoughts but decided to give Mourinho more time. Could be crucial at end of the season.
Considering that we've already halved the GD difference after 4 games, I wouldn't put it past us to equal Chelsea´s GD and we'd only need to gain 3 points all season while beating them at home.
My memory might be wrong, but don’t Newcastle usually do quite well against Chelsea?
They do well against mourinho. He has never won there and it continued with us.
6 points is unreal progress. Love it.

If we get a positive result at Wembley, I'll start believing. It'll be one of the hardest matches we'll play all season and if we can get a result there, I'll fancy our chances.
Now it's down to 6 points Ed might feel more tempted to buy that defender this month, could make the difference between CL and EL next season.
It was so dumb how long we waited to fix what obviously wasn't working and was never going to! We've got a bit of a chance but I fear we left the change too late and it'll bite us on the arse.
Chelsea's home form is shit at the moment, bit like us over the last few years when the onus is on you as the home team to attack they struggle
I think we’ll come up short as we’re still a bit of a mess defensively, but it just shows that Jose should’ve been binned much earlier.
We don't need a defender for poor opposition we will face after spurs games. I don't think the defender we want would be available as well.
Can see bringing in a loanee back to the club though.
Some of the results really haunting at the moment, we should be comfortably in the top 4 already.
If we beat Spurs I'll start to really believe....
Next set of for the rest of January:
West Ham vs Arsenal
Chelsea vs Newcastle
Spurs vs United
United vs Brighton
Arsenal vs Chelsea
Arsenal vs Cardiff
Bournemouth vs Chelsea
United vs Burnley
West Ham vs Arsenal
Chelsea vs Newcastle
Spurs vs United

Just shows you that we'd be in the top four now if we had sacked that virus after the West Ham or Newcastle game.
Draw will be more than decent as after that you have two very winnable home games and Arsenal-Chelsea is also happening.
Can see the gap going down to 2-3 points tbh.
Arsenal at home to Chelsea. They'd be confident of getting 4 points from two home games. West Ham away is difficult to predict with West Ham producing random games atm.
Here, we might actually do this.
At very least we're in the mix again provided we don't start going through a bad blip.
Take a point at least against Spurs and then two home matches back to back.

Thank God for Liverpool. If it wasn't for them, we'd be fending off 6th place from Wolves, Leicester and Everton.
We should have sacked him after the Brighton game.
United will make top 4. The amount of goals you're scoring is a good indicator provided you can stay consistent. Chelsea have City,Liverpool , Arsenal and UTD away. That's possibly 4 losses for them.
7/9 in the next 3 and we'll comfortably finish 4th.
We have spurs away next, can't remember the last time we won there.
See ? You just had to take care of a little problemSo much doom and gloomWe play Spurs and you at Old Trafford. By January 1st, i'm sure United will be back in the mix. We've barely passed a third of the season, a lot is still waiting to happen.
Chelsea v Arsenal will be huge, a win there would be amazing but i'd take a draw and just stay close.Chelsea will drop more points.It'll be a travesty if we didn't make it. Chelsea can't even score against Southampton. They don't have an attacking force. And Arsenal can't defend. We've got the best balance and still have all teams still to play. It's looking good . If we can get a result in Wembley it'll will be even better and put us in strong position.
We have the likes of City, Arsenal, Spurs, Wolves, Leicester, Everton away ourselves without a 7 point headstart. It's more likely than a couple of weeks ago, but still highly unlikely. Defeat to Spurs would kill any chance.
Yes, yes, feel the hope.
Let it grow inside of you.
Let it build..

Well believe my friend. The last 5 years we had to deal with dross football but fear not, the prodigal son has returned. I’m backing the boys to make it 5 wins in a row...
Maybe not recently in the league but we beat them in the Cup at Wembley in April. We can do it again!
Exactly the way I feel about your title challenge.Yes, yes, feel the hope.
Let it grow inside of you.
Let it build..
feck that. We should have sacked him after Seville last season.
Yeah but that midfield of Sissoko and Winks I feel can be got at. And they have some academy youngster as their only backup.
Easy. Get a time machine and go to 14th. "Yesterday"
Destroying the club.
Still not good enough for the top 4. It we beat both West Ham and Chelsea it could chance though.
Atleast they won't have Son for this match. But our defense scares me. Hope Smalling is back for that match.
