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?!

5 penalties? ffs, when did Atletico become Real and Barcelona?
Messi is just unreal. 21 goals in 14 apps is absolutely ridiculous.
Great to hear that Messi has been selected to play tonight.
Another penalty for Atletico, Falcao on a hattrick here.
He had a ridiculous streak early in the season where he scored a penalty in 4 consecutive league games.
Make that pen. #6 (if he scores)
Yep, no-one in one of the 5 top European leagues has more than 14, and most of them are already on matchday 16, while Messi has yet to play matchday 15 (in 45min or so). He also has 5 assists which is something no other top scorer can match; Ibra, 14 goals, 3 assists; Ronaldo, 13 goals, 2 assists; Van Persie is closest with 4 assists (& 11 goals)... The Eredivisie top scorer has 15 so far, Henrikh Mkhitaryan of Shakhtar has 18 though, only one that can keep up.
Fun fact:
With that Ronaldo, Messi ánd Falcao have scored hat-tricks against Deportivo this season
Ronaldo, 3 goals (2 pen.) in a 5-1 home win
Messi, 3 goals (0 pen.) in a 5-4 away win (also 1 assist)
Falcao, 4 goals (1 pen.) in a 5-0 home win*
*so far

Any reason why Costa was replaced? Injured?
Poker for Falcao
Falcao with his 4th.
Falcao just scored again.
Brave header
Barcelona next weekend
His movement is absolutely amazing how he reaches that ball before the defender. Split second reaction time.
Needs an update already lol, Falcao edging closer to Messi...

5...
Out of this world. Wow
5th goal from Falcao.
Unreal.
Unreal.
Ok this is ridiculous, feck you Falcao
He's an absolute monster
Falcao is fecking.. wow
Brilliant player so far. I hope he can keep it up for the rest of the season.
19 goals in 15 appearances in all competitions for Atleti this season.
Including when we sign him in Jan?
He has to be the best striker in the world at present surely?
Just the 5 for Falcao tonight. He's not up to much, is he?

Of course, you will have the Worlds greatest manager playing him as a centre-back...
Fackt!!Only joking with you Rob.
meh, rubbish player.
Cmon Double Hattrick!
Exactly. Lazy twat!
I can only remember Defoe and Berbatov in recent times scoring 5 goals in a league game in the 5 top European leagues, and obviously Messi in the CL.
Morientes in 2002 was apparently the last time in Spain
Morientes in 2002 was apparently the last time in Spain
First time in Atletico's history a player has scored 5 in one game.
Can see PSG bidding a for him too
feckin hell, Falcao is a machine. He wasn't kidding when he said he was going to challenge for the pichichi this season.
You have to say, in recent years Atlético have had some world class forwards...
Torres (well...), Agüero, Forlán, now Falcao.
Before that they had Vieri (pre-Inter) and Hasselbaink (pre-Chelsea) as well.

It just makes you wonder, who's next once Falcao inevitably leaves at the end of the season... I would love for him to stay with Atletico and have a season of CL football there but cannot see it happening.
I remember some Brazilian guy scoring 7 goals in a game in the Dutch competition a few seasons ago. Think it was Herenveen, don't remember the player's name.
