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.

I think it used to work that way, but they've changed it to stop this exact situation.
The three stages of foul for a tackle are careless (free kick), reckless (yellow) and excessive force (red). Is excssive force also considered violent conduct? I don't think it is, but it has been a while since I've looked at the law book.
hahahahaah you've actually lost the plot.
Orange card. Harsh.
He could ve avoided that easily lol.plus, he placed his whole weight on the guy s foot, that s your red card, not the initial lunge forward.
Why are people arguing over intent? Just like Mane’s red against City, intent is irrelevant. Clear red, unfortunately, as he’s such an important piece of the puzzle for us.
He was fantastic, the way he bullied Koscielny was just brutal.
That was a brilliant performance. Before the red card that is.
Ignoring the red card, he is seriously some player.
you jackass
Harsh, looked like bellerin put his leg under Pogba's studs to get him sent off.
Will be a huge loss against City.. Bournemouth at home and West Brom away should be easier to manage. Will be back fresh for the Christmas fixtures.
Matic-Fellaini-Ander against City then.
Sure.

Sure.
Even despite the red card, which I don't think he could do anything about, he was world class.
His best big game at United.
Shame about the red though

Great performance and so many filthy touches. Massive loss next week. I hate when he's not playing.
Great game apart from the red card. No way was it intentional, but those sort of incidents are reds.
Looked pretty accidental, not sure where else his foot is supposed to come down after flicking the ball. Obviously looks bad when his weight comes down on Bellerin's leg but zero intent for me.
Pure class bar the red, Hes starting to show his price tag just put a real dampener on the game tonight losing him as there is no other.
The quality of Pogba’s performance today makes the red card even more unfortunate. On our 3rd he made the Arsenal defender look like a kid. We will miss him badly next week.
MOTM for me till the red, I wouldn't swap him for any midfielder in the world
Amazing performance destroyed by a stupid moment.
That sucks. That really sucks.

He's a fecking phenomenal footballer. That's all there is to it. I still can't believe we fecking signed him. He's going to be a huge miss against City though ffs.
He was fecking terrific. So composed on the ball when under pressure. Not to mention he made two goals! This is the player we paid all that dough for.
He's fantastic, City are so lucky. It was a red but it was accidental and could have been avoided.
The way he turned Kos was class. There isn't a midfielder in the league who can do that and there isn't a midfielder in the world I would swap him for.
I’d like to focus on his football today. For one reason or another, he has missed many big games since he came back, and in others he hasn’t performed.
He was excellent today, two assists, absolutely bullied Koscielny for the second of them, and great play on the counter.

The way he used his physicality in our third, I'll go on and say no other midfielder uses his body that perfectly.
a basic summary of his season so far: so close and yet so far from being imperious.
Injury/Redcard are very very frustrating as it keeps disrupting our rhythm.
Not completely his fault but it is what it is.

And I don’t think any sane person can be overly emotional about the red.
If he pulled out there, he’d have been slated most likely.
When you’re playing that well, you go for anything to increase the advantage. Lingard got MOTM for the goals, but after De Gea who was the actual MOTM, it was Pogba for me.
On his actual performance, this was the first time that I've seen him play to his ability in a game against one of the top PL teams for us. Shame about the red.
Bossed the game today, would've been MotM after De Gea.
Shame about the red, but sometimes you have to pay the price of winning.

Had a brilliant game.
Was excellent. Unlucky with the red, it happens but it is a red. 50/50 like that, you can't pull out especially the way it was going but it's what happens. Could say it's karma after him saying he hoped a city player gets injured (even if it was out of context a bit).
He's been consistently brilliant this season though. Massive loss vs City, especially since we don't play well without him. Ah well.

Great despite the red card...
Such a shame he is out the City game. It's a big problem.
Because if you dont consider intent, you wont get over head kicks ever because everyone one of them is "dangerous play".
Brilliant again and made the difference in a big game.
