In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!
He had practically nothing to feed off all game, then bang.
Thought he was trying a bit too hard to do it on his own during the game, but that free-kick was just class. Solid, solid Atléti, I must be dreaming
Atletico keep up with Barca, 7 wins in a row in the liga. Amazing run just gets better and better. Think Falcao is doing a Messi and adding to his wide array of skills.
Cracking freekick! The foul leading to that was ridiculous though!
Indeed, he's not yet in that league though; I believe Messi has taken 8 free-kicks this season for club and country and has scored 4, hit the post twice and only missed 2.
Pichichi standings so far:
1. Lionel MESSI, 11 goals in 8 apps (1 pen.)
2. Radamel FALCAO, 9 goals in 7 apps (4 pen.)
3. Cristiano RONALDO, 9 goals in 8 apps (4 pen.)
Funnily enough these three are also the only ones to have scored a hat-trick so far this season
I've only just saw that the free kick he scored was his first attempted free kick in la liga.
Be interesting to see if he can keep up with the other 2 beasts in the goalscoring charts this season.

Well, he had a very impressive first season with 24 goals in 34 games in La Liga, of which 15 under Simeone who took over a little before half way (23 Dec.); maybe this season they will concentrate more on the league.
He'll have some work to do though if we look at last year's Pichichi:
1. Lionel MESSI, 50 goals in 37 apps (10 pen.) -- 1.35 gpg
2. Cristiano RONALDO, 46 goals in 38 apps (12 pen.) -- 1.21 gpg
3. Radamel FALCAO, 24 goals in 34 apps (5 pen.) -- 0.71 gpg
Messi almost doubled that. Though him and Cristiano got a shitload of penalties.
Falcao did score against both RM and Barça last year. Am really curious to see this year's match-ups.
It's a beautiful thing to see a footballer trying to add various to his game.Falcao is a great player and even if his team at some point will show its limits, it's great to see compete against Messi/Ronaldo
Barcelona is going to drop points against Rayo tonight, I can feel it!
Aw, bless

All times from the BBC so UK.
Meanwhile, Valencia lost again continuing their poor start - at this rate I'm going to start wondering if Emery was actually a good coach.
Watching Celta - Depor, refreshing to see these teams together again in the Primera. Vintage Valeron assist for the equaliser.
Valencia have managed one draw away. Going to be a tough fight for the 4th place yet again this season.
Barcelona tonight, still missing a big slice of their defence, start with:
Valdés; Montoya, Song, Adriano, Alba; Busquets, Xavi, Cesc; Pedro, Messi y Villa.

fecking hell Not a single proper defender in that team
No Iniesta?
What's a proper defender? A CB? If not, then what about Montoya?
Villa does it for them again.
montoya is a defender.
i wonder if pep takes over if we'll start to see sides picked like this.

Carrick playing centre back? Stuff like that.
nah, even when we throw carrick back there we still have him partnered with 2-3 other qualified defenders.
I mean putting carrick next to 2 ultra attacking wing backs and reece brown and not giving a feck because we'll have 85% possession.
That full back who got outpaced by Pedro with that head start should be ashamed of himself
so, if messi scores he will reach 300 goals in his career
amd he is only 25 years old

That's only 12 goals a year to be fair.
Counting from the day of his birth...
300!
He just did it aswell...
Always scores such classy goals.

25 years AND 130+ days. Don't get ahead of yourself there.
xavi 3-0
they score whenever they want, it's unfair
they score whenever they want, it's unfair
4-0 fabregas
Cesc 4-0
You sound heartbroken, Mr Marcos.

rayo did very well today, and still, the got hammered
Why hasn't Fergie tried to sign this Messi kid yet?
he was between messi and kagawa
The magic midget gets another.
Alexis Sánchez... tied with Suárez for worst finisher who is otherwise good, at the moment?
