Expecting trouble put: 'That man's no good!' (2,3,4)

I believe the answer is:

up the duff

'expecting' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'trouble put that man's no good' is the wordplay.
'trouble' indicates an anagram.
'that man' becomes 'he' ('he' refers to a man).
'no good' becomes 'duff' (I've seen this before).
'put' with letters rearranged gives 'upt'.
'upt'+'he'+'duff'='UP THE DUFF'

(Another definition for up the duff that I've seen is " Expecting".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
