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?!
Don't like him. Charges around and does everything 200 miles per hour. Still young, though.
So far hes played well, good link up play
He could be everything Anderson should have been 
Said in the other thread. The lad looks good, no wonder.the idiot.voted.his transfer.
Ekangameni would have put it in the top corner, he is a much bigger talent.
He's going to be a superstar
Can't believe he's 18
Can't believe he's 18
Don't forget Pearson mate. He would have probably scored a hattrick by now
He's finally turned up, played well this half.
I avoid the word beast but this guy fits it pretty well. The very definition of massive potential.
Has there ever been a bigger Caf love in for a player that has done so little?
I love this guy. Still needs polishing up (expected at 18), but you can just see he's going to be a phenomenal player. Got it all, but what impresses me the most is his drive and pressing.
Its the normal herd behavior around here. Just look at page one of the Breel Embolo thread, then look at the last page.
Thiago, Vidal and Sanches could be a ridiculous midfield.
where is phil osophy to tell us that benefica fans hate him?
I didn't know anything about him so wasn't bothered when we missed out signing him but looking at him here we've missed a star.
Love in?
Assuming this is a joke? The kid was widely derided and considered nowhere near good enough until Bayern pounced on him.
Embolo (before he signed for someone else)?
Don't think that's the case at all. Most were very apprehensive about him.
Would've been a top signing for us. Exactly what we've been lacking. Energy and excitement in midfield. Watching Fellaini,Carrick ect trot around was painful to watch last season.
Should put that in this thread:

He looks like a very good player (reminds of a young Rooney for some reason). But IMO he's over reliant on his physique. Players like him usually are a knee injury away from being average. That being said Bayern have signed a very good player who could compliment Thiago and Kimmich in the near future.
Missed the massive deflection initially. Takes the shine away from what looked like a class goal. He has been pretty decent, best showing from him this tournament. His passing is still very erratic but have shown much more than a Andre Gomes.
From the Embolo thread (not quoting the posters as that's mean)....
"As talented as Martial IMO."
"If I was our manager, he would be my first signing."
"Martial Zlatan Embolo
""Bloody hell. Looks special."

He did say MOST and from I read of the thread I agree
100% worth the fee Bayern spent according to Giggs...what went wrong then?
He's looked very good so far, will definitely be one that got away a few years down the line but hey ho. He's no Charni Ekengamene.
Do Bayern ever sign young players that turn out to be shit? Or does everything they touch turn to gold? For once It'd be nice to see them make a few cock ups like we have.
*cough* Breno
Gotze
The Embolo thread is amazing... next big thing for a few pages, then as soon as everyone had actually seen him play he was absolute dross 
Definitely, he is going to be one of the best midfielders in the world.
As you mentioned, he is just 18 so he will improve a lot in the coming years. A future midfield of Fosu-Mensah and Renato Sanches could have been really good.
I am talking about the love in after Bayern got him. He looks good but the praise is overblown.
Common sense.
I think I'm watching a different game. He's ran around a lot without doing much. Did well for the goal but it took a massive deflection. I know he's only 18 but the hype in here's a bit too much considering his performance so far in this game and the tournament.
Actually at the Euro, he hasn't played anywhere near some of his performances for Benfica.
But one can see even such a raw Sanches brings something extra to the team. If and when he fully realizes his true potential, he could be one hell of a player.
The power, pace, stamina he offers, we didn't have anyone since Keano days.
I'm not sure if he'd get enough game time at Bayern though. They've such a strong midfield.

I thought he was more "underwhelming" than shit.
Spot on. It's as if people are blinded by the fact he's 18.
Pogba (although later he proved those moaners right)
