First time I saw this guy. I thought Bayern have some player in their hands. What do you think of him ?
David Alaba

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
He's been solid anytime I've seen him. Seen him play left back, left winger and central midfielder. Think he's naturally a lefty.
I definitely remember him shifting the ball onto his left tonight.
Only 19 too. Impressive.
I meant that he likes to be out left, be it wing or full back. The foot was a given.
Well that's the last time I come here with my amazing powers of observation 
His voice is brilliant
Only the german speakers understand what i mean.

I don't speak German but I understand that Austrian-German dialect is supposedly funny in Germany. Schwarzenegger couldn't even dub himself despite speaking fluent German because of it.
Would be an excellent successor to Evra.
he is awesome in fifa12.
Played on the right at least once and looked comfortable there when I saw him. He's been talked about for a while now as Austria's next big thing but up until this season I didn't really see the fuss. Definitely been impressed this season though. With his pace it's easy to stick him out wide but I do think he'll end up in the middle primarily.
his preferred position is CM. plays there for austria as well. Has done very well as a lb though and I also think he's actually better there
first saw him in the game against Dortmund a few weeks back. Impressed me too.
Saw him in a pre-season game vs Barcelona and he was playing midfield. Impressed me.
Bayern have a few very good, solid talents that they bring up now. Seems like thats the way forward with buying a top player here and there
He was quite impressive last night. Made some great runs down the wings and did well defensively too.
Bayern are a brilliant club, my favourite of the European super clubs.
There really isn't any chance we would sign anyone from Bayern. They are on an equal standing in the game to us, and have a young exciting team. Seen loads of this over the years, 'Schweinsteiger, Muller, Robben, Ribery, Lahm, Kroos' ... Bayern wouldn't sell to us, and I doubt we'd even try.
Before anyone talks about Hargreaves, he wasn't vital to their team and they got an absolute mint for him from us.
Hargreaves was a very important player for them the season before his last at Bayern, 05/06 I think. It was just his broken leg combined with his desire to move that meant Bayern were willing to sell.
Will miss the final if Bayern go through.
It was an absolutely ridiculous card to give. He knew nothing of that ball hitting him.
Seen him a few times now and he looks quite good, only 19 too. Incredibly harsh to give the penalty nevermind booking him and getting him suspended. That run to set up Robben was brilliant.
The next Evra
A jack of many trades and a master of most of them.
what a pen and what a player
He was fecking quality tonight.
Yeah looks like Bayern have their long term left back. Very well played
Looked Bayern's best attacking player by a mile tbh
Nerves of fecking steel.
19 year old and first to step up. Fair fecking play.

Yup he looked brilliant
fecking hell, some bollocks to step up first, looks a top player. Reminds me of Patrice too. Did he used to be a winger or did I imagine that?
He's a midfielder I think, central and out wide.
Really sorry for the lad that he won't be playing in the final.
He really made an impact on the Bayern game since he moved from being a midfielder to playing as the left FB for them in the second half of the season.

Bayern's best player tonight with Schweinsteiger as far as I'm concerned. Still a shame that he has to miss the final on account of that yellow.
Some confidence to step up and take the first spot kick, great performance
Gutted for him missing the final now, unlikely but can they appeal it? Thought it was a very harsh decision myself

Really gutted for him, love how he always takes bayerns first pen. Bollox like as big as they get
Between him and Phil Jones for the best teenage defender in the world.
Hang on, Jones needs to learn to actually defend first.
Yeah well, just that Jones is not on alabas level as of yet
Class penalty
Admittedly, Jones is in a poor run of form lately. But right at the start of the season and for most of the time before January, he was consistently one of our best players no matter which position he played in. Definately was a revelation at right back with his marauding runs into the final third and he scored/assisted a few too.
Having said that im always more biased towards our own players nor have I seen too much of alaba in the bundesliga.
