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?

Yes!
What fantastic news. I'm delighted.
He's back!
Get In!!!
Glad to have him back
Loving this!
Get in! Fantastic news!
Is he still useful though?
All I worry about is where is he going to play? We seem to have something good happening and are being clinical. Is Zlatan going to have an effect on Romelu's form? Would he be happy rotating or does this mean he has to start?
Great news.
Fantastic news! We have one hell of a squad 
Very, very happy with this.
Ecstatic about this. Hated the way it ended for him last season.
Our squad is
We're gonna win the League lads.
Andy Mitten's article on ESPN said his wages will be significantly from last season and because Jose prefers Lukaku to be the main striker.
Done dealio! Welcome back Zlatan. And I read he's targeting a return in late October against Spurs?! Good god, what a quick recovery.
On a free from a dodgy knee he costs us fecking zero
Didn't Richard Keys say Zlatan to Galaxy was a done deal? Clueless.
Players out of contract when the window closes can still sign for anyone at any time.
It's only a transfer window.
A great option for us. It's a long season and he's a great option to have especially when we need goals. He's a big game player, which lukaku is yet to prove, and think he will be devastating in the CL. Honestly don't think this would have happened if Griezmann was signed though.
If he is another option then I am fine with it. For someone who was a bit cynical about Lukaku I have been impressed with him and the work the forward players have been doing. I don't want that upsetting. He will be really useful when rotation has to kick in, especially if Jose wants us challenging on a number of fronts.
Long season, our starting xi is pretty much decided for now. Jose is not one to change a winning team.
Stupid
There's plenty of time before he's ready and I'm sure things will take shape in terms of how he'll be used by then.
What a huge boost it will be come January and also for the ucl latter stages.
He did. He should get re tweeted.
Six foot five, hard as feck..................
Signing Perisic will be even more important right now, because when Ibra is back, we will certainly switch to 3-5-2, with Lukaku and Ibra up front. Ibra always liked to get back on field to take the ball, so he could be a good partner for Lukaku who is a target man.
But, with Ibra and Lukaku as strikers, you need crosses, and Valencia and Perisic would be a very good duo for our wings. I think Mou will push for him more than ever.
Although I'm not a huge fan of 3-5-2, I think this line-up would be great:
De Gea - Bailly - Jones - Rojo - Valencia - Pogba - Matic - Mkhitaryan - Perisic - Ibrahimovic - Lukaku

So buy Perisic to accommodate Ibra for half of the season and dismantle currently working mechanism - is that your plan?
Well well... time to honor that then?
His influence will help lukaku get better at his hold up play and vision and link up play.
Love it, well deserved!
I completely agree with him. I don't think it's his plan, though, he's not Jose as far as I know.
I mentioned that as a big reason to sign Perisic, but not the only one. We will have multiple games this year, and we have not enough wingers. I think he can be a good option for our left and right side, so when we need proper wingers, he could be really useful for us.
You should not rush with the "currently working mechanism", because we haven't played any big team until now and I don't believe Mata should start in a team who wants to challenge for the title.
RAWK is happy about this. Think it's a great way to destabilize the team.
Return of the Zlat...!!
He will get some important goals 2nd half of the season for sure, and could be the crucial difference between silverware and also ran..
