You're right. What this thread needs is more recycled Chuck Norris jokes.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

Portugals right back is suspect
Right lads. He's posted in the wrong thread. But he's only got five fecking posts today, so let's make sure he doesn't waste this one.
Edit your post little newb and I'll respond.
Feck me I have 1 more post now
This guy is crazy. Will he make the next one worthwhile?
Don't you worry.
As the days go by I'm really starting to not want this guy. He is 35 for Christ sake. He also plays like a number 10 more than a 9. Him and rooney will butt heads at least 5 times during a single game.
Really? I thought you would like our front three to be Mata, Rooney and Depay.
Problem with playing Rashford in a 433 is that Mourinho hardly plays a 433 and wants his wingers to be hard working. Rashford is not that.
However, I wouldn't mind playing Zlatan in the number 10 while Rashford plays upfront, then we could get a hard working right winger like Mkhitaryan to compensate. Zlatan almost plays like a number 10 anyway dropping deep and moving forward. It could work, but we will have to see.

Will be slightly better than your concerns regarding his age.
How's Demichelis? Has he recovered from being terrorised by Rashford yet?
My MIL thinks new underwear is a necessity at every occasion. It's never been asked for.
Too much smoke here. Fair to assume he's transferring to United. Bayern has Lewa already.
If by giving him this extension the plan is to have him start Thu-Sun and be our main midfielder, then it is stupid. If the club was signing a 35 year old Carrick to be the lynch pin of our midfield, then it would have been stupider.
Rooney contract extension was not the soundest decision. Now we are struck with a declining star on huge wages.
We probably should have stayed away from Falcao. He was atrocious for us.
Schweinsteiger was another daft buy from us. Everyone and his dog knew about his injury problems. Then a few months in, the idiot in-charge decided to tell the world that 'he wasn't the midfielder that he was in the past'. Really, Mr Philosopher? You don't think that he is not the player he was in the past. Shocking! Even more astonishing was seeing him world over watching Ivanovic when he should have been working on getting his fitness back.
But hey, Bastian fecking Schweinsteiger! Caftard logic or whatever at it's finest.
No to the Olympics
Get the Olympics to feck, need our full team from the start and get off to a winning run.
He's not going to be playing in the Olympics the day after playing in Rooney's testimonial!
Agreed, for all those recent signings of ageing players that have been panned in hindsight, at the time they were greeted with relative glee on here. The only ageing player we signed who had a halfway efficacious impact for me was Larsson, none of Blanc, Owen, Falcao, Schweinsteiger have been all that useful. I do realize Ibra hasn't had injury troubles and is coming off a 50 goal season but that doesn't make it a sure thing, it's a lot more likely that he scores around 15-20 goals while we move heaven and earth just to accommodate him and Rooney in the same XI. I'm a little skeptical of this move that won't exactly be inexpensive either even if i disregard the opportunity cost.
Assuming we sign him, I wouldn't be happy if he were to go to the Olympics. If we're going to pay obscene wages to get a years service from him then he has to have a proper pre-season and he has to be ready to hit the ground running from the very start i.e. the community shield. It's just not on to have him playing football all summer and risk injury or tiring himself out.
I can just picture Chiellini or someone breaking him up now and ruining our season before it's even started.
We just have to pray he comes through the Euros OK and raises us to the level of the big teams again.

Well, he's off to the Olympics by the looks of it.

The Swedish coach also said that he wasn't very hopeful that Zlatan will participate.
Feck the Olympics.
Yeah, but the coach wouldn't have included his name in the provisional list if Zlatan himself did not contemplate it. I guess if Sweden get knocked out early in the Euros, it's very likely he might be off to Rio.
No, and there's no secret that Zlatan wants to play in the Olympics. I think there's no way we're gonna let him play the Olympics with him already at the Euros.
He can play in the Olympics via skype
There ere reports in Italy that the club and Zlatan are still arguing on is issue. It seems he's intent on going.
Sad thing about the swedish Olympics team is that it will be better than the seniors. Full of promising Euro U21 champions.
If he chooses to play in the Olympics he can feck off to China. I want players that are 100% committed and focused on the new season - Community Shield or not.
Its just the Community Shield - it's not even a real trophy.
Honestly, I wouldn't mind. It's his last chance to get a medal and it's not like we have strikers in short supply. But it will mess up his conditioning though. He'd be too ragged without proper rest.
I thought he was going to Bayern Munchen? 
.
.You better get used to it. It's Zlatan's way or no way.
This is the trade off for signing an egotist. In his head we'd just be lucky to be in his presence. There's no commitment or loyalty to our fans or anyone other than Zlatan.
I think the fact that the Swedish coach thinks it is unlikely means that he won't be going but if the deal fell through to United (we pulled out) then he would probably go. Assumption that if he doesn't go to United he will go to China.
I've kissed worse. I heard it speaks five languages and smells like a peach bellini.
He was released, had a terrible rash all over, they didn't want it spreading.How's Demichelis? Has he recovered from being terrorised by Rashford yet?
Try telling that to Moyes.
Bet Moyes still has the Community Shield hanging on his wall, just above his bed.
I'm willing to bet my house that this is a done deal
