This guy's nickname should be Isaac "Hank" Schreuder

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?

100m is a joke. wasnt gabriel jesus half the price? my goodness
My briefs are out
But surely he wants to stay and play the customary 8 games, possibly 6 looking at their table, in the CL this season? Isn’t that what every player strives for?
He better be!
Susan wont like this
Meh. New coach shouldn't expect any loyalty from players who don't know him. Guy seemed cocky for someone who only managed club Brugge before
Basically, the Finance team told the football side they were insane rejecting that kind of money.
Im not sure he is but I feel Sancho needs more support from a LB than Antony so better he is with Malacia
At this point I dont really care about the price, we really needed new forwards into the club. If this is who Ten Hag wanted, then so be it.
Question is, do we have any money left or is that it? As we really probably could do with another forward.

He’s a bit of a crater.
Never in doubt this would happen. Ajax just needed a positive PR spin, blame it on the business etc. No chance they would refuse 100m offer for Antony.
Depay/Dembele?
For those complaining about the fee the reality is that it's probably extremely unlikely the fee will ever really reach €100 million.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was something like 60-70 million guaranteed with the rest made up in bonuses of Antony is nominated for the Balon D'or, United make top four, United win the premiership etc. As with all these signings the fee will be in such a manner that if we ever pay the full amount it will mean he has been a very successful signing for us.

this guy is going to be a fantastic player for us and he fits the bill perfectly....right age, left footed attacker, like to run at defenders...
he's also going to be frustrating at times as well trying to pull off some outrageous pass or skill so we should be prepared for that as well

The endgame of an all Anthony forward line is complete.
Oh yeah ready for that
With 4 days to go in the transfer window, Antony is surely our last signing this summer? I mean, I could see us trying to get a GK in last couple of days but anything than that seems improbable.
Is there any player, past or present, that people would compare him to?
I doubt you'd say the same thing if Real Madrid had come for our two best young players (if we had any good, young players) and our new manager complained about it.
Can't wait to see that guys face right now
Cheap squad striker maybe
Bebe.
Its different. Players don't come to United on the basis of being a stepping stone club. Antony picked Ajax on the basis of leaving in 2 years when a fair bid from a big club came in. They're literally about to do a rebuild. Of course their stars don't want to be there.
Ten Hag had to build multiple teams. Cry more.
Anyone got that tweet highlighting his skillful
Mahrez.
Nani a bit
Obertan
Now that would be something if he can offer anywhere near the same threat
Dembele would cost a lot. Memphis is the cheap option to bring in for CF depth. I'd be happy with that.
Hopefully we get this deal wrapped up so he can be a bench option for Leicester and be ready as a possible starter for Arsenal.
Yeah, possible, but even that if Cristiano is to leave but it seems like there are no buyers for him, maybe Sporting but it seems unlikely.
Ajax sell their most promising players every season, its their business model. Their teams gets gutted every other season. Its how they operate. We don't
Same. This late in the window, we aren't saving pennies for other targets, so let's just pay what is needed.
Feeling more schadenfreude to be honestSpare a moment for Sad Schreuder
I think Antony's ceiling is even higher.
