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?

It’s bizarre. We’ve made a bid 10m below their asking price that definitely won’t be accepted but the transfer is certain to happen…it just seems like filling the narrative while euros is on. It was probably all agreed weeks ago.
Yup, also time to update CM, FM & Fifa.
4-2-3-1 With two DMs sitting pretty in front of defense, with one AMC getting up and down. One attacking FB, and the other is more defensive. One wing forward who stays up, the other wing working hard up and down. One striker who likes to roam around. Like to play from the defense.
Hmm.. yes. Other than those, I agreed it's nothing alike.
This is a new stage that I've never seen before, the " Virtual bid accepted" stage.
Na. We play two inside forwards out wide who use their pace to get in behind and stretch the play. We use quick passing in and around the box (hence the pens) conpared to England who use Foden, Grealish, Mount behind a basically false 9 in Kane to keep the ball and probe around the box. We move the ball quicker, our no 10 gets the ball forward quicker and we play on the shoulder a lot more. We have 2 CMs that cover the field rather than a pure DM who never leaves Stones pocket. We simply don't play with 2 DMs either.
Other than that..
Me too. Bruno’s been shite since he joined from a crappy league. Should’ve paid the premium for Maddison!
Better than preparing a bid tbf.
He's also failed to impress during the euros. We should get rid imo.
Choo choo! Hop on guys!
Gareth Southgate deserves massive credit for getting this done, IMO. He knew that we were desperate for him and didn’t play him in case he shone and boosted his price tag. Some real 4D chess there. SouthGOAT.
We all know we're going to have to cough up the full amount in the end, so just do it ffs!
A virtual bid or the real bid?
Ah @Bratt isn’t all bad
Was there a virtual consideration and a period of virtual preparing of the bid beforehand?
WE GO AGAIN
Thank you.you arę 100% right
Aren't 'utreport' notorious for making shit up and just whacking [bbc] on the end of it?
Shows how boring this saga has become when BBC say we’re close to signing someone and nobody unzips
This one needs to just be resolved now so that we can get excited for a CB

Yeah I clicked a link with BBC in it and I got a formal warning at work!
Beeing a transfer muppet and a Manchester United supporter is the equivalent of oil and water. The shiet wont mix.
Not enjoying the “United working on financing the deal” hopefully that’s a bluff.
Nope. People make meme accounts pretending to be utdreport.

Even a positive update from the BBC doesn’t get the masses flocking.
Shows how everyone is ultra bored of this saga.

The bid is so close now that surely they’ll get this wrapped up in the coming days.
We’re doing a lot of pissing about but it won’t get done until after the Euro’s anyway.

Or, just could be that Southgate hasn't got a clue what he's doing.
I think the next 48 hours will be crucial but ultimately rewarding....we are at the "vinegar strokes" stage of the saga
I don’t think that’s true. There are a lot of fakes around who most certainly do that.
I was half joking. We always end up with players who we think can play RW, but prefer LW or Centre.
I don't watch him regularly. But from what I gathered from online, it seems when he plays right, he tries to run into central spaces. But he looks more comfortable and complete on the left.
I would definitely not like to be in market again for a RW, after years of searching for one.
Yeah Dortmund need the cash pronto, it will be done soon, they are in more of a rush than we are.
We have agreement with the player, if anything it saves us a few million quid waiting until after the Euros.
I don’t understand the process. Same with Maguire. We end up paying the asking price so just get on with it.
Dortmund doesn't work like that. When they set a price, they won't budge.
Would be quite shocking if we did put in a bid of £72.6m and they allowed the deal to fall through as they want £80m for him with most of that up front
This shouldn’t be posted without the spongebob meme
Its literally down from 120 million euro last summer to 85 million this summer. That’s a good sum of money towards a good centre back.
I’d be shocked if this club paid over £120m on arrivals this summer.
