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.
What is Mcginty doing ?
It's getting a bit heated at the moment. Game is very stop-start.
Great hit! Kangaroo goal!
Pick that one out.
Ekangemene!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a goal by Ekangemene!!!!
1-0 United.
1-0 United.
Great finish
Wow....what a strike that was 
The commentator got it right.
Peno, wouldn't be surprised to see a red here.
Yellow to Lingard.
Yellow to Lingard.
Bugger....soft penalty that.
Urgh Penalty.
Bellerin looks a decent player.

1-1
Nah, defo not a red as Buttner was covering the other side.
Not sure how they scored that pen with a left footed penalty taker. But level at half time
Doubt we would see a penalty like that in first team football, great penalty from them all the same.
It was a poor penalty, the only thing going for it was that he hit it hard. It would have been an easy save if the keeper had stayed still or gone the other way.
Yeah, poor penalty. Got a bit lucky.
Can't really blame Gollini either as he picked his side early.

So apparently Djemba Djemba wasnt the best best player ever
Missed the first half, who is doing well so far?
They've probably been the better team , but level is just about a fair result at half time.
Need to get a striker on and stop wasting Januzaj ffs. Ekangemene has probably been our best midfielder too. Tunnicliffe dissapointing.

WTF ? Djemba Djemba has his own show on MUTV now ?
You what?
Great goal by Charni, Macari's on form tonight.
Playing downhill in the second half.
Mcginty is dogshite. Committed but no ability on the ball whatsoever. Said it the other week but its so apparent again, he's a League 2 player in the making, League 1 if he's lucky.
Our midfield three, Tunni, Veseli and Charni, work really hard when the opposition have the ball but are really poor when we have it. They rarely ever look to make angles for eachother in tight spaces and are far too happy to just lay it back to a defender and break off when they win it back. They never look to thread balls into the attackers instead relying on the full backs to do it for them. This starves our front three of having any possession in the final third, unless they get lucky from a long ball.

Not a fan of his personally, but that's harsh. Championship standard, i would say.
Joyce seems to like him defensively.
Who came on?
Fornasier on for Buttner.
Yeah apologies. Wrote it not seeing a reply. Thought the Arsenal man was about to shoot and Lingard brought him down before doing so. Also didn't see Buttner in the background prepared to block the shot.
Solo of "Championes, Ole, Ole, Ole"
Said it before and I'll say it again: Lingard's touch is as good as anyone at the club's.
Can't stand seeing Januzaj up front on his own. Wasted there. At the moment its us tackling Arsenal, hitting the ball to the isolated Januzaj who loses the ball due to lack of strength against Arsenal's big centrebacks. Rinse and repeat.
Yeah, bring on Cofie and Get Januzaj deeper and on the ball ffs. So obvious.
We really need to bring a striker into this game.
Is Lingard already on a yellow?
Edit: Phew. Gets a yellow now though.
