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.
Just seen the goal, wtf was Konchesky doing
Who took the corner? Giggs or Nani?
Of course he shouldn't.
good half but im still a little nervous....things have gone way too smoothly for a derby game....
It would look ridiculous admittedly. Still doesn't mean it's not cheating from Konchesky.
Giggs
They're pretty difficult to break down but with them chasing the game I fancy us to hit them on the break, try not to throw this one away lads!
We've actually been fairly ordinary. It's just that Liverpool have been worse.
right then i just got up for the second half (working bloody nights last night and tonight) so i need someone to fill me in here, 1-0 ! sexy!
berbatov?! nice, the boy finally coming good
how is the white pele doing? any signs of improvement?
is there an epic battle going on between torres and vidic like people predicted?

It was a deliberate handball. Should have been red.
All they're talking about is Liverpool and how they've been wasteful. FFS what about Utd, what about Berba's header?? fecking biased cnuts.
Nani is getting better and better, becoming a real handful on the ball with his super quick feet. He looks to me like he is starting head towards becoming the player we hoped he would.

Surely not. The goal was given. If he had of saved it, then definite red card and definite penalty.
Alan Smith in co-commentary has been drowning in his own bile. Complete bollocks.
Not there yet but i agree.
Rooney has lost the ability to strike a ball cleanly 
Come on son, you look uninspired!

Paul Scholes, Fulham...2 seasons back
Ok it went in, but it's still a handball on the line
So if Konchesky's hand had completely stopped the ball, he would have seen red most likely, but just because the ball went in, it means he gets away with it. He could have very easily prevented that goal there.
Liverpool have been complete shite. All they've done is pointlessly knock the ball about hoping we don't win it back, and that's despite having the ref blatantly on their side.
We eased off too much imo, after a good start, but hopefully we'll be able to pick them off now.

Konchesky should have got yellow for th intentional handball. Red would have been had he prevented the goal.
Come on United - lets make sure we don't give this up.

Why?
Carragher and Skrtel are playing rugby (or basketball) in the box.
And you do have lots of bald players.
Torres hasn't been the same player since he became a brunette.
Vidic's been immense. Torres is playing in invisble mode.
Was expecting one of Martin Tyler/Andy Gray at least, commentary has been rubbish.
Has given away possession numerous times, poor by his standards so far. Vidic is a brick wall; Torres has barely touched the ball.
I couldn't see Everton getting 2 in injury time last week, but there you go. Liverpool will have to push someone to support Torres up front, be it Gerrard or Babel coming on for one of their DM. This game is far from over. After Fulham and Everton, I reckon we need to be 3 up going into the last 3 minutes to guarentee we get at least a point.
He hasn't been the same since he tried to look more like a man, his inner lady is trying to get out.
Had it not gone in i think he would have had to have gone off, im more aggreived about the carragher handball, would love to have seen the tosser sent off, hopefully come out second half and score an early one
Regarding Konchesky's handball on the line:
If a player commits a professional foul but the team scores a goal due to the advantage played (or in this case, the ball is going in anyway) the player should be punished with a yellow card.

Which completely changes it. Ffs, I can't believe people actually think that was a red card. The ball went IN, thus he didn't stop or deny a clear goal or goal scoring chance.
Besides which, I'm pretty sure he was behind the line anyway.

It was intentional...thus a red card
All the Scouse in the pub have disappeared. Gonf to slash their wrists or something?
Absolutely no suprise.
Not sure failing to prevent a goalscoring opportunity is a red card offence. Unless you'd rather the ref disallow the goal, award a penalty, and then send him off. Which would have just been unbelievably retarded.
He should given given a freekick on the edge for the Carragher handball though, and he keeps giving Liverpool freekicks when they players just fall over.
Need a 2nd goal. Don't really have much faith in our defense to hang on if it's just a 1 goal lead
Berba has been good, Nani's been very involved as well. Rooney's form is still a bit worrying though.

Apparently Chelsea - Blackpool is the bigger game. The punter loves seeing Chelsea thump yet another shite side 5-0
