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.
Referees gone soft. You can't even kick a fool in the face no more.
Oh yeah sorry. Nedved was reigning Balon D'Or going into Euro 2004.
Netherlands-Czechs game in that tournament all time classic.
Czechia is really poor, imagine what Turkey could do
Games gone
Get Neto on you shitbag
Is that the game Nedved had a crazy shot that hit the crossbar ?
Martinez is a terrible manager.
Czech playing well
Imagine the hystrionics if it was Bruno kicked in the head
Come back Santos pleeease
Draw here would be great for Turkey.
Tackle.
I think Bruno has been good (Vitinha even better) though I don't think the midfield setup is optimal for either player. Not to give them an excuse but I don't think the setup is balanced.
He is legit contractually obliged to not sub Ronaldo unless when leading by 2 goals
Jota is definitely in my top 5 of players I irrationally(?) hate.
Shite game.
That goalkeeper and defender must be rubber Czechs
International football is a bit strange, isn’t it? You have so many players and managers building a reputation by beating teams a tier or two below them for 95% of the matches.
You play 2-3 games every two years where you’re actually tested. It means people like Martinez and Southgate are able to survive despite being mediocre.
You have players with great goal records with a high percentage of goals against tier or two below players
I love it but it feels like you suspend a bit of your belief to enjoy it even more.

BBC are running highlights of that game on Iplayer, forgot Jan Koller existed
Netherlands were 2-0 up into the second half and then Czechs blitzed them and won 3-2. So many great attackers on both sides when you think there was Robben, RVN on the Dutch side.
Will give the highlights a watch of that after this finishes.
I've never seen Jota cleanly go past a player once. He always wins a tacky challenge.
We always beat the turks but with Martinez you never know.
Pepe majestic once again. Incredible player
Fernandes and Silva are not doing well in the second half.
What’s with this ridiculous formation for Portugal? Just put Bruno at 10, play 4 at the back so Pepe doesn’t have to play and put an actual midfielder in for Cancelo.
Infuriating watching this... there's too much talent in this team to just play crosses to Ronaldo.
Good tournament so far except France, England, Portugal matches
The tournament ball, Adidas Roteiro was beautiful
Jota gets the winner.
2-1!! Jota
Jota scores 2-1
2-1. Should be enough
Usually I'd root for the underdog but the Czechs are a pack of diving fannies tonight so I hope they get punished.
Jota scores. 2-1 to Portugal.
It do be like that
Why is the keeper refusing to give them the ball 
?
?looks like many will owe england an apology for their win.
Why is Jota acting like a twat??
Offside
Ronaldo did well there.
