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.

It's not happening but daddy daddy want want want. He's just a ridiculous talent.
Villa aren't going to sell him. He's got a longer contract than Kane.
This guy is the real deal! We missed our chance last season before villa offered him an improved contract. If city somehow sign him I think I'll loose all hope in football 
Would Sancho money be enough for him?
This guy is hashtag baller.
Has to start for England he causes chaos.

Would lose a lot of pleasure, as the only reason Villa games are worth watching is for him.This guy is the real deal! We missed our chance last season before villa offered him an improved contract. If city somehow sign him I think I'll loose all hope in football
Couldn't watch City with him, it'd be horrible.
I think he's my favorite non-United player at the moment.
What a player!
What a player!
We’d score a feck ton though
I’d prefer him to Bruno in our 10 role (if we absolutely have to play a fecking 10).
Why not just play both?
Sancho money + Tuanzebe probably will be if he is looking to move.
He's so fecking good, I'd happily just move Pogba on for 30m if he really wants out and use that toward lowering a Grealish fee. He can play 10 or wide, will certainly get enough minutes and provide Rashford more time to rest and not play so many games.
Because I’m trying to build a team that makes sense. One or the other for me.
There’s not a chance we would sell Tuanzebe for enough to make up the difference. Villa are loaded and don’t need to sell. Grealish is going to be very very expensive.
We could easily play both. Whether we could play all three of Bruno, Grealish and Rashford would be another story, but it would probably be Rashford that would lose out there (unless he got back into the form he showed for a few months before his back injury in 19/20).
Well we could replace Rashford with Grealish, but Grealish is no winger and needs to be involved all over the pitch I think. If we are to buy anyone to replace Rashford, it should be an actual winger who can threaten in behind and get 20 a season IMO.
Villa is not selling this guy. Villa wants to break into the top 4 and no way they sell their talisman
Not only will Villa refuse to sell him, I don't think he wants to leave. He'd be close to a free agent by now but instead he chose to sign a long term contract in COVID times, drastically limiting his options. He chose to do that because he's fine with another 2 or 3 years at Villa
We should do whatever it takes. If that's in the region of 150mil then so be it.
Having all of our wingers being forwards focused on goals rather than playmakers is one of our biggest weakness IMO. Playing a 4231 requires one of the wingers to be more of a creative playmaker to help provide the balance. Ideally we'd want that player on the right though since Rashford is, at least for now, ahead of Greenwood.
Not that Grealish is going to happen unfortunately.
That’s a fair view.
No.
Grealish is a good player, especially on the eyes, but there are some crazy posts on here.
You are looking for Mbappe like numbers and involvements to pay 150m for anyone.
People need to go watch some videos of Sancho playing at youth level - he’s an absolute baller and I have no doubt will get to Grealish’s level within the next 4 years. The Grealish train ended when villa stayed up last year unfortunately.
He’s unbelievable and he’s been a ridiculous ball carrier for the last 5 years.
Martial, Pogba, Lingard Out
Sancho, Grealish In
If we can get it done it would be brilliant.
Fred, Mctominay, Matic, VDB in the middle for another year I can handle if we got that.
Sancho, Grealish, Cavani, Rashford, Greenwood, Grealish.
We can win the league if Maguire stays fit for most of it which he’s very good at.

+1 That was why I was surprised when Ole went Rashford - Cavani - Greenwood against Villareal (a team we expect to just sit back and defend).
Anyways, I think Sancho solves a similar problem for us, so we can't complain too much.
I think we have to sign him, he’s brilliant and will only improve massively at a top club.
He has become my first choice signing.

If Shearer
I think the Premier League gets a little bit of coverage outside of England....anyone who watched him play knew how good he was and anyone who didn't only has to ask.
In any sort of reality, who plays where for us then? Or is this one of those ‘that’s the thing, we will have options’ posts?
If I could sign anyone it’d be him.
He’s a unbelievable player.

Are you a time traveler from 2018?
My favourite non-United player. An absolute joy to watch and the best player in the league.
Reminds me of Becks, different skill set of course but similar character
Always positive and plays forward
Gets kicked to fcuk but never shirks
Wants the ball all the time
Bit of a pretty boy
That's a United player right there, would love him here

Replace the creative outlet. Grealish is as good as sold.
Then they best invest £300m in players.

Amusing. He would instantly become Chelsea’s best attacking player by some margin, and on top of that you get some flair and artistry that your dull team so desperately needs. A Hazard-replacement so to speak. That’s harsh for the Champions League-winner naturally, but my god is Chelsea boring to watch these days and that win was never about attacking football.
I'd throw most of our transfer kitty at him. Stick him on the left and the rest fight it out for the right, whoever plays best gets to continue playing there.
Grealish - Martial / Cavani - Greenwood / Rashford / Dialo
That'd have no trouble against deep defences.

He never proved himself in the Champions League and ultimately that’s a blot on the resume of one of this country’s finest strikers, no question.
