In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.
And fools on here thought Benfica stood a chance 
Liverpool [1] - 0 Benfica [4-1 on agg.] - Ibrahima Konaté 21'
Pool could have played their 3rd string team and come out okay.And fools on here thought Benfica stood a chance
Allowing Liverpool to play against Portuguese teams is like a bye. Every fecking season.
Just feck off
Konate another obvious signing we could have had instead of chasing the big name.
Ah he had all the time in the world to stay onside there.
Can't stand Atletico. Wouldn't mind Man City stuffing them. The dirtiest side that exists.
Can City handle the dark arts, s**thousery and all round thuggery of these scoundrels. They're just getting started with that elbow into Foden's head. When you see the City players crowding around the ref, you'll know that Atletico have them where they want them. Utter bastards.
Lovely goal, sadly offside.
Is it only me or someone else also thinks Foden has extremely iritating and punchable face?
Felipe should never last this match.
And fools on here thought Benfica stood a chance
I think a certain Spanish side might cause them a worry or two.
Cant believe Ajax lost to that Benfica side. I would love to have seen ETH go up against the dippers
Yes, he does.
He would have turned into another Maguire for us. Everything we touch turns to shite right now.
Already two clear yellow card offenses.
I hate dumb players like Felipe, makes stupid fouls and finds ways to protest
Tuchel was quite critical of the referee and he specifically called out this incident - https://talksport.com/football/1085119/thomas-tuchel-chelsea-referee-champions-league-real-madrid/
While it is likely his hand brushed the ball, there is no "clear and obvious" evidence for that. So it should not have been overturned.
His face always looks like it has taken several punches tbf.
It feels like no team even bothers to try against Liverpool. I think they could be beaten if teams actually tried to get at them
I don't even know why I am watching these matches...
I'm surprised by many of the posts myself. I don't know if it's stupidity or something elseAnd fools on here thought Benfica stood a chance
Thanks, I feel better now. Was wondering if something is wrong with me.
The QF was over when the draw picked Benfica.
Definitely not just you!
It’s actually pretty clear from the clip you inexplicably didn’t link.Tuchel was quite critical of the referee and he specifically called out this incident - https://talksport.com/football/1085119/thomas-tuchel-chelsea-referee-champions-league-real-madrid/

Konate is so good. Better than all of our CBs.
Do atletico think they go through if they draw this 0-0?
Mixed feelings watching Atletico - City...
Would love for both to lose. City for being too good, Atletico because they are a crime against football. Hate everything about them. The cheating, the diving, manipulating the ref, Koke's face and his expressions.
Unfortunately the ref looks weak. Foden foul should've been an easy yellow.

It’s a catch 22. Want City out but feck me Atleti make it impossible to root for them.
Desperation. Can't believe anyone legitimately believed it.
"If you look at it logically that should be his second yellow."
Logically, he doesn't make that tackle if he's already on a yellow. "Fletch", you stupid cnut.

City control the game very well. It is very difficult for Atlético to achieve anything in isolated plays so far from the goal

Don't they check all goals for off-side, handballs etc? I'm not sure it falls under the clear and obvious nonsense.
true. Sometimes I think he wil burst into tears any second.Thuggery and cheap tackles are at least worth 1 goal.
That is where they bring out their experience player named "play acting"
