In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!
If Google AI wanted to really show off that product, they would've used it to edit Rashford out of the adverts.
No subs. He is a coward.
He won’t make a change until the 60th minute.
Thing is, last two tournaments prior to this, it’s not felt like that. Just feels like a lot of the fear is back which everyone thought we’d long shed.
It's not really that controversial is it? Comparable or better win-rate, WC semi-final, Euro final, etc. In terms of results, Southgate seems like the best since Alf Ramsey.
No changes!
I would take Kane and Bellingham off, Watkins and Gordon or Palmer on.
Stiff as a board he is
Noticed that, as well.
Bellingham is over rated is ridiculous. Fancy version of felliaini
No subs. Ooooooof.
Southgate is trying to use him as a touchline winger. He's not that kind of player, but he shouldn't be anywhere near being the starting left winger anyways. Why would you leave Saka out? He's better and more impactful, both for club and country.
There has never been a point in our lives where Foden was the best player either in the Premier League, or even his own club. He will never ever play into form in a role that doesn't suit him, and on the side of the pitch that doesn't suit him. Saka is a better right winger, Palmer too, maybe even Bowen as well. Bellingham is a better #10, and probably Palmer too. Gordon and Saka are better left wingers. This is the most obvious example of Southgate trying to shoehorn a big name into the eleven, disregarding team balance.
Nagelsmann had no issues with benching Wirtz, when it was the obvious choice to make to improve the team. Southgate is just clueless and too much of a coward to do something like that with Foden.
P.S: I'm also not an English fan. No way in hell I was gonna support this team with both Maguire and Rashford staying at home.
Will be interested to hear The Rest is Football crew’s thoughts on this car crash (especially if they are a few bottles of wine to the good).
I can only guess Southgate’s got a bet against us going through.
fecking unbelievable no subs
No changes is that right!!!!
Southgate "same again lads"
If I was Slovakia, I'd target Mainoo for another yellow.
0 bloody subs
No subs is wild. How are you lot so cursed to always have the dumbest and least creative managers in the football world
Yeah, glad we didn't feck ourselves over with the fee/wages.
No subs.. what a joke.
NO subs?!
45 mins left in a job and he makes no subs. What a spineless cnut
I’ve already posted Saka needs support and think Walkers been poor… Ive got no issue with Trent coming in.
My comment was on Gary’s comments which were silly/hyperbole.
Ah well, hopefully the United lads come back uninjured.
No subs?! What a bell.
Bellingham has thrown bigger temper tantrums than cristiano.
When INEOS replace ETH with Southgate at least we can't blame them for going from a manager with a certain style of play to a manager with a completely different style of play. England are a United incarnate. Same to same. We would be upgrading from a manager who took a team to the European Champions league semi to a manager who took a team to the European Championship Final.
Oh feck off, Matterface.
I don't necessarily disagree, but TAA instantly gives Saka more license to roam and adds far more progression than Walker. This "Walker tucking into midfield" garbage in the final third is laughable, at least TAA in that spot can provide danger
But yeah Gordon and probably Watkins need to be on as well as Palmer for me
One of the few England creative player. And he can score a bit also. But his best work is when dropping deep. The way he's playing now is like a target man, which is an awful tactic.
Would like to see him with a pacey striker up front.
No subs
Bad as Berhalter.
Dixon's defence of Southgate is nauseating. Dullards stick together.
Going out isn’t a crime, but doing so with a whimper is
How does he not see what everyone seeing? He’s deliberately trying to sabotage us
In his head he's going against what the nation wants so he's brave.
You almost want this team/manager to get dumped out based on the last 3.5 matches and Gareth’s team selections and substitute decisions (or lack of)
I know you can make comparisons with Southgate and Solskjaer with the whole vibes fc thing and reliance on individual brilliance, but at least Solskjaer wasn’t afraid to make half-time changes for the better like Cavani on at HT against Soton.
