In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) get the depressing job of reviewing United's 3-0 loss at Old Trafford to Liverpool. They discuss what went wrong, Casemiro's day to forget, and the pressure now on Erik Ten Hag. They also take some time to give McTominay a proper farewell, and give their overall thoughts on the Summer Transfer Window.

We can be proud of this.
Spurs: Gomes; Hutton, Bassong, Dawson, Bale; Bentley, Palacios, Jenas, Lennon; Keane, Defoe.

Five live say Berbatov starts
Bloody strong Spurs lineup. Could be in trouble here.
We are the same as Besiktas except Pig, De Laet and Berbatov come in for Foster, Rafael and Macheda.

Not a bad team if that is official
That a decent enough team. Bit worried about Palacios bossing the midfield, Anderson will have to have a good game.
Not a bad line-up. And PIG and Berba start
Not sure about Anderson and Gibson though. It really didn't work against CSKA, i hope they click against the spuds.
edit: Just occured to me that theres no Nani in there. A January departure perhaps ?
Agreed, made up Berba is starting.
subs? and still no Nani
No Nani, feck sake, what a piss take.
Looking forward to seeing the front 2. Looked pretty good together against Southampton last season.
Well, up to a point.
But the team has none of the Spurs first-choice back 4, plus no Modric or Kranjcar ... some of it due to injuries (Modric, King, Woodgate), one due being to cup-tied (Kranjcar), some due to resting players (Corluka and Ekotto).
will be surprised if we get through ..
a lot more experience in that spurs team
a lot more experience in that spurs team
Why is it a piss take?
apparently.. Fergie is playing the same team that started against Istanbul.
So basically you are resting two players, others couldn't have played in any case?
Few teams can match Spurs in terms of the depth of their squad - luckily they are 3-4 players short of a really good first-team to match the best
Spurs subs: Walker, Corluka, Naughton, Huddlestone, Rose, Crouch, Pavlyuchenko
Bench anyone?
Big game for Anderson tonight
Big game for Anderson tonight
Yup.
It's good to see a team as good as we have - and know that we have 14-15 players who are as good or better that could have started that match.
He hasn't featured for ages. Obertan shouldn't be ahead of him.
Nani plays?
If we defend like we have been lately it could be a long night.
Why not?
Obertan played really well in his last start and deserves his place. If Nani had done the same he would have played a lot more football in recent weeks.
glad to see De Laet get the start lad puts in a hard tackle.
Not a bad line-up. And PIG and Berba start
Not sure about Anderson and Gibson though. It really didn't work against CSKA, i hope they click against the spuds.
edit: Just occured to me that theres no Nani in there. A January departure perhaps ?
Me neither. Not very confident about this one.
Dimitar Berbatov returns to face his old club Spurs as Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson shuffles his pack again after the win at Portsmouth. Ferguson was stung by criticism of his young brigade after the Champions League defeat against Besiktas at Old Trafford, but he has shown faith again as Gabriel Obertan, Danny Welbeck and Darron Gibson start. A rest on the bench for Ryan Giggs tonight. Spurs captain Robbie Keane is back after being restricted to the bench against Aston Villa and starts up front with Jermain Defoe.
Glad to see Tosic on bench
As expected.
Who else than Tosic and Foster on the bench?
It's not 'just because we are playing Tottenham' though. He needs game time after his injury.
You just reminded me of the best username i've seen in the noobs for ages CR....Ctrl+Alt+DeLaet
Before that i was still pissing myself at puNANI
