In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) look forward to a new life under Ruben Amorim. What system will we be playing? What players will impress? and how will it all go? We also say goodbye to Ruud Van Nistelrooy and review United's 3-0 win at home against Leicester City.

Isnt one a friendly?
He got Ali Daei's record. He doesn't need to play pointless games against far-away minnows any more. Better to focus on winning the PL-CL double.
United have the best scorer in the sport on their team.
Anyone who thinks other wise is insane.

He was shite for almost the whole game. Petulant and selfish. But they wouldn’t have won it without him. I suspect there will be a lot of that this season.
SIUUUUUUUU! 
I thought he was pretty sharp all round 2nd half
He plays every game the rat bastard.
Isn't that a friendly?
Fair enough. But that's part of the reason I don't get the "I don't see where he fits in" posts. He fills a key weakness in the squad. Good headers and finishers in the box. The only good header we have is Cavani and his availability is questionable and his finishing is streaky. I think we're competitive enough against the big teams to be in the mix, we just need someone who'll win us the close games like the Southampton game.
He's freezing in the air again.
Matrix shit
I'd disagree with that, he looked dangerous when he had the ball, Portugals tactics were terrible though.
Agreed.
What.. we didn't sign Messi.
He silences naysayers time and time again but they never learn. Einsteins who know nothing.
What happened to your vidoes? I was looking for your Ronaldo - Proof - Fear visor and it’s not there anymore.Ban the doubters
It is a big
SSSSSSSIIIIIIUUUUUU
day...
SSSSSSSIIIIIIUUUUUU
day...
The power he gets on these headers is fecking ridiculous
There will be a lot of blaming tactics for performances like tonight too.
They reminded me a lot of United in the first half of matches last season, annoyingly.
We signed Messi?
Yup. Effin Iron Man who doesn't need fancy jet pack suit.
He’s a box player now, a finisher. He needs chances but he will score them every time.
Decent player.
He hasn't kicked a ball for us and we have United fans willing him to fail and thinking he's got off lightly for that performance because of their prediction that he's going to flop here. Feckin' incredible.
It's Ronaldo we're talking about. Even if he ends up only being decent this season, the fans will be delighted to have him back. You can bet the sponsors will, too. Mental.

Even if that were true and it wasn’t down to tumescent tactics from a negative manager, who cares if he does that and wins us the game??
His mentality is another level.
Is he THE bestest header of the ball ever?
That is the game he is suspended for, will play the friendly on the 4th
I like how @Pogue Mahone is teasy about Ronaldo sinking Ireland despite being generally poor for 90 mins but at the same time comforting himself that Ronaldo is going to make the opposition fans feel like he’s feeling right now plenty of times this season.
Ohhh even fecking better.
Exactly. Fair to say those two goals caused very mixed emotions!
So Portugal have a friendly against Qatar on 4 September, and the qualifier against Azerbaijan on 7 September he is suspended for. Which is useful. A full week of rest before Newcastle.
Too many “the”s in that sentence.
just bagged two goals in 2nd half stoppage time for Portugal to beat Ireland 2-1....good for him sucks for Ireland
He is fecking starting against Newcastle isn’t he?
Of course he's starting.
His English is pretty good.
