In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss three 1-1 draws.
The first got us knocked out of the FA Cup, the next puts us in a good position in our Round of 16 Europa League game, and the latest was an actual decent performance against Arsenal at Old Trafford.
All hopes for the season now rest on the Europa League - does Amorim have the squad to win it?

Fergie Fergie sign him up!
I don't think pace is something he has shown. But he certainly gets around the pitch well.
Yep. Not blistering pace but a lovely balance.
Yeah so am I, great player him on the left and Zaha on the right
He looks really comfortable on the left too, which is a huge bonus.
If this kid was playing for some Spanish club in La Liga, we'd be ordering the club to make a move for him. We better not let him go.
That was an impressive 20 minute shift he put in there today. He really put the Palace defence on the back foot every time he tore at them with a run. He has an eye for playing in a good trough ball and spraying it about too. RvP was unlucky not to get on the score sheet from a nice ball Januzaj played to him on the right hand side of the box. He played another lovely ball to Valencia shortly after as well. Key moment was the run he made at the Palace defence and resulted in him winning the free kick which Rooney buried. He's an exciting looking player alright.
The real deal.
Best player on the pitch once he was on imo, followed by Fellaini. Great to see.
Can't wait to see more of him in the first team.
So refreshing to see a player so direct.

Against Palace with a man sent off but still was very good.
Excited to say the least, for a 18 year old he's got a lot of ability already, he could be a top player in a couple of years. Sign him up to a long term deal.
Changed the match bringing him on. Played on the left, which some people claim he doesn't have the pace for and proved them wrong.
He seems quite happy. If he keeps getting some appearances there will be no problems. And I don't see why he won't get more appearances after this debut.
This kid is fantastic. Get him signing the new contract and give him first team opportunities this season.
Leagues ahead of Valencia and Young, I hope Nani is played on the opposite wing.
He's got technique AND a football brain. He's just got it.
Give him whatever he wants
Rest of the team bar Carrick sure made it seem like hard work.
He's a bit rough, but loads of potential. Love his confidence. Few more years of growth and experience and we might have a star on our hands.
I think his pace is a bit like Kaka, deceptive and there when needed.
Great to see him given a chance and he did well.
I really hope he gets a lot of playing time this season. I think especially against the smaller teams he can be quite useful unlocking those defensive teams.
Looks better every time he plays, at the moment.
His technical ability on the ball is impressive, but man, what a steel nerve. 18, making a debut at OT, and he just glides around bossing every move. What a kid! Cant wait to see more of him!
what a cameo .
Well it's about time I come here and say how happy I am to see him given a chance so soon into the league. I've never loved a youngster as much as this one.
I'm not sure he knows any other way than to ask for the ball and be involved in passing it around. Whenever I've seen him before for reserves he's never been one of those players who just waits for the ball to come to him, do something good and then wait again. He's always come towards the ball making sure he got touches
Oh boy, where to start... The guy is constant danger, made Palace defense retreat to their box, almost everytime he started dancing with the ball.
His instinct and reflexes are superiour to so many players, today. Still a teenager, aiming to teach Young some ball control skills.
Belgium brings so many good footballers, these days. Won't be surprised if the Benteke linking will become reality, sooner or later.

That's even better.
Going to have to learn to spell the little bastards name without googling it aren't I?
I think we have been starved so much of real talent on the wings with the turgid rubbish produced by our current wingers we need to temper our feelings for Janujasz.
Who needs Ozil, we've got our own.
I'm so embarrassed for myself.
What's the latest on his contract?
I'm close to dying of embarrassment for you. Fwiw, I think it would have been better for him to have a fresh new thread rather than this one moved to the first team.
Lol fack off Cena.
Anyways, in our 5 official games so far, he's gotten appearance in two matches. Gotta say I wasn't expecting that, fair fecks to Moyes.

you, of all people, are allowed to get names wrong.I know, right?
Problem was, I was looking at my title, then the reserve title, and I was like "hmm, something's wrong here, but I can't quite see what", so I kept looking, for like ... five fecking minutes.
Ugh,
