In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
Some of his crossfield balls were just fantastic.
Neither would get a game for Villa.
Him being a fan when he was younger means nowt.
Every big club will be after him I imagine. Both in England and abroad.

How can he say "best of luck to both" then "come on United" immediately after ?
Villa aren't threatened to be relegated now so losing Grealish would sting but not damage the club too much.
He doesn't want to be Kane....

Sign him for 40m asap.
I would offer Tuanzebe for player + cash deal.

Hes really really good. The off the field stuff being a major factor though but he would be a fantastic addition to the team.
Can only imagine what Villa would want for him now.

My understanding is that he's a Villa fan first and foremost but we're his 'second' team that he also likes and follows.
If we're still pursuing Sancho in the summer then why not go and get Grealish instead?
He isnt a Pogba replacement as they are different players but when Pogba goes this summer we should sign Grealish and a DM with a great passing range to replace him.
Would be the best business we could do.

We might get one of his calves for 40m.
He’s unreal
Isn't he a boyhood United fan too?
Different positions I know but between the 2, I'd sooner pay £80 million for Grealish than £60 million for Sancho.
So intelligent in his play, he's a footballing magician.

In before someone does the £80m or £90m and Lingard gag.
Put him in a 3-man midfield City-style with Bruno and a monster DM (Zakaria) and see what happens.
Having two playmakers of that quality starting in your team makes a massive difference.
Get him to replace Pogba. With a DM and a fast CB we could afford to play him and Bruno in midfield and still play two wingers and a striker in most games.

After Pogba he was the best player on the pitch, a huge threat from the left or right.
If they lose Grealish they immediately plummet down the table. That's how good he is.
Means nothing if he’s a fan - it’s a myth that needs to be constantly debunked.
58. Who he supported as a kid.
The top three are interchangeable depending on the player.
- A club that will further his career
- Champion league
- Money and sponsorship

Just brilliant.
Move Rashford to the right and buy this man for the left.
Best player in the league at the moment, almost untackleable.

They don't really need him. Found a decent partnership in Ming's and Kinda
We're not signing him for his intellect (obviously) but i am 100% confident that THIS is the signing we need to get us from "top 4 contenders/maybe league challengers" to the United of old. Yeah, he might be somewhat of a twat, and he drink drives and posts stupid lewd pictures online, but some of our most beloved legends like Best, Keane, Giggs etc were hardly choir boys eitherHow can he say "best of luck to both" then "come on United" immediately after ?
Go on a bender and do some stupid shite. As long as hes delivering on the pitch i dont care
This. I thought VdB was here to replace Pogba. So sell Pogba, buy Grealish and get VdB in the team.
Nah. We don't need a 10. We need a winger. Sancho would give us another dimension by being able to provide that directness and creativity on either flank, especially with age. Grealish is brilliant but with Bruno and Rashford, isn't needed. Would rather have the proper width and pace with the ball in Sancho, along with that brilliant dribbling and creativity.
100%. His ball retention and ball carrying is so good that you HAVE to foul him. I think we managed to get the ball off him twice without fouling him.
Because judging by Sancho's form this season he might actually end up more expensive. We'll see what happens though. Villa build their team around him like we do with Bruno, I think if he comes here he will have less influence than he does now.
Camavinga is still my ideal Pogba replacement. Can't just use the money on Grealish and then put Fred or Mct there instead and call it a day..
Could play him on the right - he whips in some lovely crosses.
He is 100M player. Can't believe i trusted redcafe on not getting him
I honestly didn't know at all about the drink driving thing till Josep Dowling mentioned it.
I must have been living under the rock.I will get him in just for the sole reason of not letting him go to City, Liverpool or Chelsea and solving their problems. City are crying for a player like Grealish since David Silva left. I wouldn't enjoy watching him solving them such problem. Get him in.
Everything is a "myth" to you isn't it
When he first come on the scene which does seem like quite a long time ago now I didn't see what all the fuss was about. Just seemed like some daft lad with a stupid haircut.
He has matured a lot (Albeit he drove into some parked cars) and is an unbelievable player, I'd love to see him join us.

Well he has a point though. I mean Sterling was a United fan and ended up playing his career at Liverpool and City, our 2 most hated rivals.Everything is a "myth" to you isn't it

Your mad. He'd instantly be the 2nd best player in the team
like what else?Everything is a "myth" to you isn't it
it’s a myth that players who supported rivals won’t go and play for a club. See Carragher, Smith etc etc - but that’s literally the same myth as I’ve just pointed out.
I would do that for Konsa.
What I would say is that he’s easily the most dangerous player Utd have faced all season. He had our whole defence on toast in the second half and almost single handedly created all their best chances. Kind of reminded me of Hazard but I actually had more fear of him than anyone in recent memory. Without him on the pitch that’s a comfortable night for Utd.
I’ve had this feeling for awhile now that he’s made to be a Utd player. Something about his character on the pitch just seems perfect. I think if Pogba does leave we should move heaven and earth to bring him in.

I did a quick check on your name and "myth" and at least 8 different posts of this is a myth that's a myth turned up over the few months.like what else?

Made me chuckle
