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.
Now we’re the only ones of the top clubs stuck who’re stuck with their underperforming manager.
Mr Europa sacked.
we will still be stuck for quite a while. We will sack him next season at this time, once the romanticism wears off. We always need longer
I'm glad they have given the temp job to an ex underwear model. Finally getting the recognition they deserve
Massive pressure on Ole and Silva now.
Blows my mind that Pochettino and Emery have been sacked before Marco Silva. 
Arsenal will probably go on and hire Allegri now, then Bayern will announce Poch taking over starting from next season and that will be it for us, stuck with Ole and his broken wheel.
If they end up with Poch now... 
Hopefully.If they end up with Poch now...
Poch is the last manager in the whole world?
Definitely the best one for us, and if not him then the second on the list is Allegri and we will see both flying away from us now because of the silly idea of being patient on an average on the hope he will miraculously turn good at some point in the future.
Arsenal are a point ahead of us and still sacked their manager before us.
Good timing for my post - gone.
I liked him, nice chap, average manager with a shit squad (strikers aside).
Arteta I reckon.

It was expected. Their form over the last 2-3 months was awful.
How is Silva outlasting people, guy is awful
Oh well, it looks that counter-attacking Sevilla was pretty much his level.
I guess that Arse will go for some meme manager who hasn't managed anything proper beforehand in Ole or Lampard's ilk. Vieira? Arteta? Some other cnut of theirs that's managing?

Unai Emery - Ex Arsenal Manager
Vieira and Arteta will be interesting yet risky choices.Do Arsenal want to do that ?
Personally,I think they'll go for Allegri.

Poch wouldn't go there imo. He shouldn't either as he'll get better offers.
I see the Wolves boss is the bookies favourite - that's got to be a bit underwhelming for Arsenal fans?
I'd move heaven and earth for Rodgers. I just think it'd be a great fit although Rodgers probably wouldn't go for it.

Anyone comparing this to our situation is deluded. Unay took over Arsenal in better overall position than Ole iherited, you can't let this unsettle our team when we're making strides to improve our team.
One qualm I have is still with Rodgers defensively. He walked into a great back line at Leicester but he won't have that at Arsenal.
A manager like Nuno or Rafa is what they need. More pragmatism at the back.
So basically 2 biggest names on the market right now? That kind of tactic sure helped us before. Not to mention they're completely different managers. But hell let's go for the 1st one available.
Why do you say this? I don't think Emery had a better position. He had players unable to implement his style just like Ole did. He ignored key areas of spending like Ole and he was pretty shite.
What strides?
We've been going backwards for a solid 8 months.Frankfurt made two big club to sack their coaches - Bayern & Arsenal
Like someone wearing snowshoes on a treadmill.
So yeah because the last 2 experienced managers weren't a very big success we should go on and and scout unknown managers from now on or persist with a terrible one because it might work eventually. Honestly I never get this logic.
And anyway the 2 experienced managers we had had done far better than the 2 inexperienced ones so this logic doesn't have any basis to start with.
All the logic I see about Ole staying revolves around "no available candidates", "Poch never won a trophy", "we tried experienced managers before", "it took Fergie 5 years". Yet to see any solid logic, at all.
Absolutely ridiculous this. He took them as they finished 6th the previous season. Ole took a side who finished 2nd the previous one.
So cause experienced managers were better than inexperienced ones but were sacked. Getting yet another manager who's available for the sake of it without any plan or without changing things from atop will surely, surely work. That's how Ed rolls. And yeah Poch hasn't won a trophy, it's a fact. Blindless love he has in this place is hilarious.
Imagine that, not all posters want darling Poch. Forum eh?Yeah. Great thinking.
Ok so let me understand this. In the last 2 weeks both Spurs and Arsenal have sacked their managers and rightfully so because they are underachieving massively. This is despite Spurs having 17 points and Arsenal 18 points in the Premier league.
Oh well. We can hope
Oh well. We can hope
Exactly. This is incredibly fecking dumb.
Imagine wanting to improve your rival. Logic eh?
Right not Bayern isn't our rival. But all hail Saint Poch I guess.
So what is the current plan that's worth keeping Ole for? Or are the reason you don't want us to hire definitely far better manager than Ole is that our board and Ed are crap anyway so nothing is going to change so ok let's keep him? So since we have a big problem, we shouldn't try to solve any other smaller problems in the club, let all the problems coexist at the same time till Woodward leaves?
And Poch is also a far better manager than Ole from every perspective than Ole, this is also an undeniable fact, and seeing him going to Arsenal or Bayern while we stick with Ole will be the real terrible management from Woodward, not sacking Ole and hiring him.
Yeah you're right. Once we sack that fraud everything will be great again. And fans will fall in love with Ed again.
No one ever said that. No one expects us to be world beaters once Ole leaves, but at the same time he has also been a problem on his own that needs to be solved. Let's imagine that Glazers and Woodward leave, do you think the new owners will persist with Ole? The answer is clearly no. We don't have one problem. We have multiple problems, board, players, manager. Keeping a failed manager because there is a bigger problem than him in the club is somewhat a weird logic. What will we gain from that exactly in your opinion?
@Irrational. said " if they hire poch now..." in an Arsenal thread, to which you posted "hopefully"
Where are you getting Bayern from?
Bayern can hire Poch all they want.
