Looks like Ole benched Pogba

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss three 1-1 draws.
The first got us knocked out of the FA Cup, the next puts us in a good position in our Round of 16 Europa League game, and the latest was an actual decent performance against Arsenal at Old Trafford.
All hopes for the season now rest on the Europa League - does Amorim have the squad to win it?
They're matching them and are creating a few chances, too. Just looks like they're missing a big player in the middle to take them to that next level. Their version of KDB. Saka looks like a fun player to have in their team. Arteta looks like a really good fit for Arsenal and he's got an idea of how he wants them to set up and play.
Arsenal look good
technically very good and some nice passing between the lines
watching Saka makes me miss a natural dribbler in our side

Yeah when Aubameyang made that through pass in the first half Willian wasn't ready and able to make anything of it (not that I blame him particularly). A ruthless centre forward like Kane or even Vardy would be invaluable for them in providing a focal point for their decent build-up play.
This kit choice is a bit barmy isn’t it? Aesthetically pleasing though.
Has Pepe done anything?
State of that freekick from Pepe 
Aubameyang is getting confined to the FF bin after this. Useless since he's signed his bumper contract.
Anyone who says "lets get the Partey started" should be banned.
Partey time 
Maybe he likes her
Excellent. You nailed it. I wish that anyone could start thinking like that. 1mm,1cm or 1m. It is bloody offside
Terrible, terrible game and can't help but Foden adds so very little. Both him and Bernardo need to improve a lot. Dias looks good, though.
It really does show how far Man Utd have fallen when James is a starter.
Still don't know why Arsenal didn't get a pen for the high boot by walker when Gabriel tried to head the ball. Corner during the first half.
To be fair he's only starting because Martial, Cavani and Greenwood are all out.
Refs are so poor, how do you not call a corner there? I just don’t get jt
Rodri on a yellow early. Proceeds to commit 3 more fouls and still doesn't get booked again...
Terrible game that, I don't get the Arsenal praise at all, City were barely been in second gear and just coasting out the game. Two key players out for City and Arsenal should've felt they could've have done more.
Pep taking tactical lessons from Jose for the 2nd half. We were poor again today but hey if we win our game in hand we'll be level with Liverpool, not bad given how shite we are at the minute.
Ruben Dias was immense and Bernardo our best player.

Not every foul is a yellow card...
Of course but its persistent fouling to break up counter attacks and the ref just wasn't interested.
Glad Arsenal have been brought down to earth somewhat
None were yellow card fouls though. If any of our players should half walked it was Cancelo he got away with a blatant tactical foul while on a yellow
Arsenal have been a lot more solid this season but pretty wank overall still.
The Arse praise is ridiculous after getting beat by a City team in second gear that put the foot off the gas completely after their goal.
Arsenal lack a creative, goal-scoring CM.
Jokes aside, don't touch the officials.
For sure, I never said it wasn't a red, I said manhandled was funny.
I'm sure they'll go on to win now, but the state of that Man Utd starting 11....
I know
Creative players full stop. There’s Saka and...? Probably Willian next. Pepe at a push. It’s the obvious hole in the squad.
Sol Campbell ffs.
What has he said. I have turned the radio on.
You have Ozil!
He was going on about Bellerin letting Foden on his right foot for the goal without realising Foden is actually left footed.
Which might be why he is out of a job.
Everton vs Liverpool
Everton are looking really good this season....CL place will be tough but really not unlikely.
Chelsea vs Southampton
Chelsea will be a "fun team" this season again

That took a while.
