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 to think theres some Utd fans slating Mourinho for grabbing a point at anfield earlier this season....
City's defence is a "pub-defence", but Liverpool is this 1st team this year to take advantage of it.
The chances of us catching city are far slimmer than liverpool coming above us so i'd have prefered a city win.
I am just a proper United fan. A fan who appreciates the football itself more than results. For me United is the brand of football foremost.
Many fans are glory hunters now, for you that's probably the only type of fan you know.
Exactly. We've never had an invincible season so it would be insufferable for City to achieve that.
And if we have any title aspirations then we need City to drop points. I thought we were above just wanting top 4.
Who cares? It's sickening.
Tends to happen when you set up the way we do.
Nothing this season has justified that shitshow earlier in the season - it’s not a one off just for them. An awful lot of luck was involved with United avoiding defeat.
Top six as it stands. Just one more goal for Liverpool...:
Edit: Liverpool's goal thing didn't update. Currently 54:26

2nd, 3rd, 4th. Who cares what order us, Chelsea and Liverpool finish? Means nothing.
Spurs aren't a threat.
Spurs aren't a threat.
Are you calling me a glory hunter?
That makes the 18 other teams idiots, no? If it was that obvious.
For those irritated at those cheering on Liverpool, I think it's a combination of cognitive dissonance, and they don't work with Liverpool fans.
They'll lose form. And plus we'll beat Stoke to get a 3 point lead back. Plus if we get Sanchez then we'll be better for the remainder anyway.Top six as it stands. Just one more goal for Liverpool...:
Either that or Liverpool just have much better attacking players than us. Firmino salah and mane would walk into our frontline.
LOL yeah very true I said this at the time of the result.
City have been terrible today.
Come on man, of course the dippers deserve credit for playing with determination and high intensity. But much more than them using brilliant tactics, this result is down to a poor attempt at goalkeeping for the 1-0 and John Stones being a walking parody on a proper defender.
If we win tomorrow we close the fecking gap regardless of how many goals the scousers score so of course I want City to lose.
Look at the table. Liverpool are a form team
I'm seeing a win-win right now. If it stays at is, City lose. If City make a comeback I can laugh at the scousers.
Lol. Any team with Kane in it is a threat.
Top six as it stands. Just one more goal for Liverpool...:
Wouldn't it take 2 more goals? They would be equal on goal difference with us.
City look visibly shaken up, this is what I was hoping for.
This isn't good for us at all. I'm sure i'm not the only United fan fearing a top 4 struggle. Tottenham and Scouse looking good now. I want a convincing win against Stoke and not some flimsy 1-0 win or something. If Sanchez comes then that would also be reassuring.
They have scored more goals than us.
The win was there, I'd agree with you if Pool played like this against us.
Well, I don’t know if this result is good for us, but I’m happy for City to lose their invincibles tag.
This is so Liverpool but fortunately not as much as losing to Swansea next week is.

Liverpool finishing second and us finishing third is really no big deal - it's barely an achievement.
I'd be quite happy with city getting smashed by couple more

How are PL tie-breaks are structured btw? GD, results in games, goal scored?
Even if Liverpool will get second tonight, tomorrow they won't.
Not looking too invincible when under heavy pressure City. We stood around looking at them passing the ball around. Need to get stuck in next time around.
This is good because it might shake City now. But the only thing is I fecking hate Liverpool. A close 1-0 would’ve done why do they have to slaughter em for maximum bragging rights. cnuts.
They are. But it never lasts with Liverpool. They won't win the title and just lost their best player. This is typical of them. Play well against a good team then shit the bed vs the rest.
Well you sure think like one.
feck, you're right.
Is the Sanchez thing serious ?
Why are people worried about Pool going level? We've got a game in hand. I'd like to look ahead of us rather than behind, a draw would be ideal but I aspire us to challenge for the league and not 4th.
Points > goal difference > goals scored > most pretty boys in squad > fair play
Did you @ the wrong person?
