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.
Seems like over the years we've had a lot of CBs train with the first team or be in a squad
Has it really been as long ago as Jonny Evans since we've had a defender really make it big at United? I'm struggling to think of any others since then to be honest. Good luck to the lad, hopefully he can get a few minutes.
Define big. Tuanzebe and Williams play for the first team.
So that's why we're not signing a CB.
He's a tad young. Barely 17, and I am not referring to the magazine.
I dont follow the youngsters all that lot - who is better Mengi or fish?
Hard to say, different players with different strengths. If you would have asked me in October, I would have said Fish. If you ask me now, I would say Mengi. Next season is key for both.
Equals would be my comfortable opinion.
I think we can safely say the world is their oyster.
So to summarise, Mengi.
Look, is he a fish or an amphibian, goddamit.
106.6% of a joke is the setup. So it's basically all your fault and then 6.6% more your fault.
Wilson...Fisk
Et tu Hungry? The blame culture of today...
Not necessary. My point is that it changes, and can change mid-season too. Mengi's weakness is that he's poor in the air. A bit like Tuanzebe. Fish is great in the air.
Fish is my kind of defender
Will Fish, Wont Fish.

Damon! Damon, come back. He didn't mean it. There there, now.
I just hope his career doesn't flounder or he doesn't get hooked by another club.
La fin.

If he doesn’t make it in football he will fish.
He’s got some leap on him
Don’t know about Woodward but think Gill is a fan.
They asked who is better this morning, you said if you was asked today then Mengi. So the answer is Mengi
We need a regular performance thread for Will now
MOTM for me.. 
I was shouting at the tv fir someone to give him the ball. I had this horrible feeling he would make his debut and not touch the ball!
pleased for him. Clearly can’t make any judgement based on today.

He looks to have the knack of being in the right plaice at the right time
How much fish will Will Fish fish, if Will Fish will fish fish?
If he can sort his off the pitch issues out, I think he will be quality. Heard he has a tendency to get battered on a Friday night...(sorry)
If he's recently turned 18 then hopefully that's just a phase. I expect most of us did the same tbh.
Of all the shite jokes in here, this one actually got a laugh out of me.
And I didn't see it....
Regular reserve match watchers, I have one question... Is he any good?
Solid defender. Don’t think he has the quality to play for United but definitely a Premier League defender in a few years.
Might just be me but despite watching reserve matches year after year I still find it difficult to gauge centre backs at that age.
He's good on the ball and in the air. Lacks pace though.
But really unless they're exceptional at that age it's so tricky to say if a centre back can make it.
Will fish for cash
Usually have the same problem but for me in a limited time I watched him he looks pretty close to HM in terms of style. Wouldn't be too bad if he turned out to become similar player in terms of quality! yeah but as we all know the step up to senior football is super difficult especially on that position.
But fingers crossed he's got an amazing name so would be a shame he wouldn't make it.
I agree with that. I had already written Mengi off (almost) then he did well at Derby at just the age of 18. My feeling is that a lot of young CB's are up and down in performances. Everybody was talking about Fish in the beginning, but then he had a poor finish to the season. I can say this, Will Fish is one of the best young CB's at the club. He has shown that he has a lot of potential. Next season is key IMO, if he delivers then his future looks bright.
