To be fair Ferdinand's not doing that badly.
Day 2: Spain vs. Netherlands
- Thread starter gooDevil
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!

ITV is still better than RTE.
I see Shearer still interrupts anyone who is talking then.
I'm looking forward to see him at OT anyways, but if Van Gaal goes far with that Dutch team, he has my biggest respect. An awfully inexperienced defense with some good names in attack, but most of them seem pretty off-form.
Rio is actually pretty intelligent footballing wise when he isn't being a twit.
Good god, Lawro looks like the Sasquatch guy off Harry and the Hendersons:
Did you know the guy played Bigfoot also played the Predator
Yep Van Gall got rid of him. Oliver Kahn just said about van Bommel's comment that Van Gaal is a world class manager and players like Schweinsteiger, Lahm and Muller think that van Gaals philosophy was the foundation for Bayerns triple in 2013. He also said that van Gaal is a difficult guy and you need some courage to get along with him.

That's fantastic
Come on Louis. Looking forward to this. Would be great to see the Dutch cause an upset.
Yep he's pretty good. Way better than anything that has been seen on ITV. It's just Chiles, he ruins the whole thing.
LVG is a bit mental isn't he
Dirk Kuyt on the bench apparently. I thought he'd been put down.
Louis Van Gaal is going to be absolutely fantastic for Manchester United. Cannot.fecking.wait
Shearer reading off a piece of paper here, clearly.
I backed Holland for this. I'm hoping they score earlyish so i can cash out
come on van Gall and RVP
I want Holland to win but I've got a bet on Spain to win the WC. My brain can't handle this.
BBC definitely better than ITV. Chiles acts like a kid with ADHD when presenting
Definitely. But at least they seem to actually be giving a bit of info on the players unlike ITV.Will Van Gaal park the bus?
He'll drive it head on at the Spanish midfield.
Rio saying Moyes did not love RVP.
Good god, Lawro looks like the Sasquatch guy off Harry and the Hendersons:
Do you mean "Harry"?
Lol at that bearded Spanish ginger's stare. GIF him please!!
You lot mocking the BBC coverage, don't know how good you've got it. Here in the States I have to watch ESPN analysis. That means Alexi Lalas. I'd be better off asking my Mum what she thinks about Spain's doble pivote, than that twat about anything football related.
Luckily we get the erutide colour commentary of Steve McManaman to brighten proceedings. Oh..........

Hope Rio spills more beans on the Gollum era
Interesting insight from Rio there, makes me all the more glad Moyes is gone.
Netherlands have a lot more choices on the field. Spain is a team of 23 players and 2-3 player types. Robben and Van Persie will score a goal on any counter attack - counter attacks that will eventually come. So there's a good 25% chance of them getting a win here.
Missed that, what did he say?
Rio and Henry are definitely adding some insightful points, BBC much better than ITV so far.
What did he say?
154 caps Casillas
Good reading Rio. Good reading.
Something along the lines of strikers need to be loved but all the attention was on Rooney - RVP felt isolated.
Ramos and Pique are 2 of best defenders in the world.
van Persie and Robben are 2 of best forwards in the world.
Good battle

Rio can read!
Diego Costa, 2 caps? Is that right?
Okay, i like that they are giving a bit of info on the players but try and not make it so obvious you're reading it.
