In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Is that how much he's asked for?
Both Borough and West Ham have lodged £30.9m bids, so any offer anywhere near the SM valuation would seem to be dead in the water.
Omar, I once again offer a pack of red wine gums for Kagawa.
Yeah but I doubt he expects anyone to be able to meet that. Especially as most of the teams interested in him were Division 2 and 3 teams with little financially.
They have not.
This is what Omar sent to all interested teams on Thursday:
No team has actually bid that much. It is all on Omar's end.
Ah, I see. It says on the player's profile that they've bid that much!
Omar, I'm sure you'll find my offer to be very fair.
Omar, I'm sure you'll find my offer to be very fair.
Omar, Urbanned wants me to ask you to read his message concerning Kagawa. He feels it is a better proposition than most others have suggested.
How would he know when most are undisclosed?
I doubt anyone's got a better bid then City at the moment.

My bid is pretty similar to his. Dzagoev swings it regarding the upper rated player while my lower rated player is better than his long term.
That 30m i simply asked.
I don't need higher rated players, i need multiple lower rated players. MULTIPLE.
I don't need higher rated players, i need multiple lower rated players. MULTIPLE.
Urbanned will have offered Puyol; he's trying to desperately to shift him before he retires.
My offer meets your requirement in this regard, both young potential risers; Perisic is the main man at Dortmund now Kagawa has gone and Dzagoev is obviously going from strength to strength.
Sure he is.
For Neymar, there were so many future offers as well, and nothing for Shinji? Why?
Cider, Caceres plus Dost Bat, and a loan.
Cider, Caceres plus Dost Bat, and a loan.
In the other league most teams are loaded so it is easier to make future offers. In this one there's only really City who has the financial clout.
Stupid comment.
He may be Omar, but he's not totally retarded. Omar, you just don't have my negotiating skills.
My chairman won't allow it.
How much cash you got?
There are some other teams but not that many and even the teams with the financial flexibility here probably don't have as much to offer compared to the teams in the league Omar's on about.
And others don't lose hope, this doesn't mean the deals done.
I guess I just know my players better than you do.
Ivan Perisic will shine next season at Dortmund.
£600k
The Dzagoev/Perisic deal is the highest my chairman will allow; it's worth £25m to you and £18m to me. Cacares/Dost was £29m to you £22m to me. My chairman won't allow me to bid higher than £18m for Kagawa.
He may do, and I think he will too, but he is in no way the main man. They'd be Gotze, Hummels, Subotic, Lewandowski, Pisczek...
What league is omar on about? Why would he give a feck which league the team he deals with is in?
I meant in his position!
The Elite league - and it's Omar. He expects all teams in this league to have tonnes of money when that isn't the case.
What's the Elite League got to do with it?
I've got £600k, so why the comment about City?
Nothing. Omar was the one who brought the Elite league into this.
My offer is £1M + Tony Jantschke + Nicolas Gaitan but Omar doesn't like it.
Dzagoev is better than Gaitan but Jantschke is a solid RB and will be one of the best German full backs in future. Some also expect him to rise to 88 in the next update.
I could buy Kagawa, but I think that valuation is silly.
I (Newcastle United) recalled a few players as season is over. I made sure I didnt disturb any man managed clubs, but if I fecked up let me know.
Dzagoev is considerably better than Gaitan. Never heard of this Jantschke geezer; I doubt he's got as bright a future as Ivan Perisic.
He was one of the best right backs in the Bundesliga last season. His consistency hugely helped turn Gladbach into Champions League participants when they started the season as relegation candidates.
He was part of a side that almost broke the Bundesliga record for least goals conceded. Going forward he's dangerous and if he maintains that consistency going into next season he should be in contention for the 2014 World Cup. He is very versatile too which is a big plus.
He could probably do with a move in real life but even if he doesn't it won't stop him from becoming one of the best in his position.
As for bright future. I'm positive that he will have a better future than Perisic.
Omar you need cash, not two more players to further cripple your wage bill.
That is what I think as well. Omar would probably be best to sell Kagawa externally (I'm not sure many clubs here will have that type of cash) and use the cash to improve the other players he has while keeping the wage bill down and the team in the black. Omar can still challenge for promotion without Kagawa. He just needs to get his finances in order.
Yep. Two players, especially two such as those City and Leeds are offering, would, I imagine, cost more in wages than Kagawa. He needs cash, and needs to make sure he keeps 2m+ in the bank by the end of his transfers, or he'll be back in the red in no time.
