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.
Brilliant stuff from Villa again
Villa keep on going under Emery.
Should have won but at least we didn't lose.
Some last men standing are feeling very relieved today.
Villa's only defeat so far was the unlucky defeat to Arsenal.
I like the positivity, but more losses quicker means dyche goes sooner. Which is what you need imo
Villa have nicked our chant
Annoying to see Villa win. They are a serious rival to top 4.
The remit this year is just to stay up.
Dyche sounds like the man for that in one way, but I think he's actually burnt out as a manager. He's been fighting for too many years and this may be one too many.
It's stick or twist. I would twist ATM. Not sure who you'd be able to get in, but I'd consider you for manager over Dyche.
Villa playing Hi Ho Silver Lining to rub it in
That was pretty much a repeat of Wolves' game against Newcastle. Owned the first half, then capitulated in the second. If they had the money too I reckon GO'N would be sacked soon enough. But then they probably should have bought a defender instead of another bunch of midfielders.
For me it's more illustrative to see the way a new manager assesses the talent and deploys them - and there can be no comparison between what Poch did last year and what Maresca has done thus far. People forget that Poch started the first 2 months of last season with Ben Chilwell playing left wing.
I mean that's exactly why it's a bad move to twist just yet. Dyche has his faults but he did manage to get this chaotic mess of a club to 48 points last season and it's a risk for both us and them.
Until we get an ownership change I'd be wary about changing manager.
Doubtful. He’s just signed a new contract. They love him.
They probably can't afford to either. I'm not sure if so e of the fans are turning to be honest. But their defense is shockingly naive some times
Nah theyre not turning, they still believe theyre getting screwed over by VAR in every single game.
They've got a lot of money from player sales in recent years. I would have thought they have money if they need it. Part of why i expect them and a couple of others to be ok is i figured they would / could spend money in January if needed. You'd expect Mendes to throw a couple of good players wolves way for example.
Which one?
You’ve seen United now feck off home
4 players over 30. VVD, Alisson, and Salah can all play another 3 years so let’s put that to bed. The problem is if 2 out of those 3 are out for any period of time.
Yeah, definitely might. They've been bleeding talent for a few years and not really replacing it.
Great save.
Feels like half the league sing that these days. Hate to admit it but I heard City fans singing "you've seen the champions now feck off home" a few years before we adopted the chant.
What was Martinez thinking with that frog jump.
Great save by Onana.
Great save by Onana.
He’s lucky he didn’t catch the Palace player. That was brain dead by Martinez. No idea what he was thinking.
Just seen a Palace handball though. Seen those given.
Oh my god, Eze. What a chance.
Eze with another glorious miss.
That jump whatever it was was shockingly dumb. Not even sure what he was trying to achieve and he is lucky to not have made real contact with the player.
That's not a penalty for me...at least in the traditional sense. Seen weird ones like that called though indeed.
I've said it before but even when they play well (first half) Man. United just never look like scoring many goals v top or bottom in the league.
Can't see them finishing 4th or 5th for that reason even if they look more solid defensively.
No doubt there's about 20 threads debating this on the main forum so will take a look to see what the POV is.

We couldn’t score in a motherfecking brothel.
The cringefest in Chicago. 
Forest take lead via a penalty at Brighton.
Forest going for that 3rd star next season.
For once Forest have signed quality over quantity. Their midfield looks really good now and Milenkovic and Alex Moreno are also great signings for the backline.
Should be nowhere near relegation.

Forest player fighting with a Brighton sub. thats a new one
Then commits a foul throw. What a bellend
Ferdi Kadioglu has great hair
Ball had stopped moving when they took the free kick. Ref is a nob for pulling it back
