He's one of the best actors in the world, even though the haters will never admit it.

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.

That advert has to be my favourite of all time
With Patrice in there as well!
So good!Hope he does another motivational speech on Saturday night... though perhaps "It doesn't f*in slip" will suffice?
When's RvP back? Interesting to see what will happen. I'd imagine RVP will be brought back into the starting 11, so will Rooney be moved back?
I'd like to see RvP in behind Rooney.

He's been good since he played up top, but he's massively helped by Fellaini's presence playing high on the pitch. But I'm worried for Sunday because he's ususally very very bad at Anfield, and I can't remember a good performance from him there.
If our captain, what is supposed to be our best (with De Gea) player is not good enough for this clash, it's going to be a difficult game for us.
And Pool improved massively behind with their back 3, so I guess that it would be difficult for him also there.

Liverpool 1:2 Man Utd
I can't remember the last time I saw a player play as badly for Man United as Rooney has in this first half - to say he's been playing like a pub player would be to flatter him. He looks drunk/hungover.
It's crazy how inconsistent he can be. World class one game, pub team player the next.
Been brutal this half.
Is he drunk? 
He was embarassing himself in this first half.
He was embarassing himself in this first half.That was as bad as his performance against Swansea a couple of seasons ago.
Pretty standard Anfield performance for him.
He can't seem to control the ball.
why does he always stink the place up when we play in Liverpool.And we're playing well in spite of him. He was really good last week but jesus what was that? Can't even do the basics right.
Typical Goodison/Anfield performance. I'd take him off if he doesn't improve by the 60th minute. He's just never going to have a good game here.
Yeah, Goodison too. Maybe too many old memories flow through the brain.
A bit hit and miss so far. If we are to come out with 3 points we need him to score. Needs to come out and lead us in the second half. Mata and Herrera surely cant sustain this type of pressing for 90 minutes can they?
If he can get his game together second half there's another goal in this for us.
Horrible match, fecks up the easiest touches and passes.
Standard performance in his home town.
You must have a very, very short memory...
It's not really horrible match. 3 (I think) poor passes, but other things are going well.
He has actually had a couple of decent moments but mostly been sloppy
Not sure he deserves anything close to the stick he has received

Struggling to get into the game at the moment, it's not sticking when it gets to him, not sure what those suggesting taking him off are on though, who would we put on to play up top?
He will wake up in the second half.
It was over ten years ago since he last scored at anfield. Must be some sort of mental block.
Some huge overreactions in here, and the worst thing is that it comes at a time when we are leading our biggest rivals away from home!
3 passes that have led to them counter attacking. And simple lay offs too.
He also seems to be half arsed with his pressing of them. And being offside, when he shouldn't.
He's under the spotlight today because everyone else has been so good. Hoping for a massive improvement in the next 45.
Anyone is better than what we saw from him in first half.
His form scale is ridiculously wide. He's one of the best in the world on his game, but off it he becomes a ket head trying to dribble a lead balloon through a bog.
It's a Falcao esq performance. He was getting absolutely slaughtered for it. Luckily Rooney has time to improve today.
Shit on the ball today but he offers more off it in comparison to the possible replacements. The run in behind is massive for us and he's pressing well.
Been so poor today but if he picks it up we will start clicking really well.
Just like at Barca, when the false 9 isn't playing well the team isn't playing well. We don't really have another option on the bench tho

Woeful.
This has been the main issue. He's done it when we are transitioning and trying to get men higher up and Liverpool have men left up the pitch.
I think their one good chance was when Rooney misplaced his pass and Blind had gone motoring up the pitch. It wouldn't be so bad if he'd do it when we had been camped up in their half with lots of men back behind the ball.
We're counting on you after the game!
Wank today. Real disappointing considering the occasion.
