Is the fee really that shocking? Just seems pretty standard nowadays.

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?

English Media inflating a Utd transfer fee? Shock horror!! He’ll have cost us £100m by the time he’s pictured holding up the shirt.
No, PSG weren't prepared to go higher than their first bid which is roughly about his value that they bid.
Brilliant to get it over the line. Going down to the last few days is a mistake. We want to get a new striker bedded into the club. Absolutely crucial.
It's over the odds for sure but it's also who we've clearly identified as the stand out option and they've been willing to pay for that. In the long run we'll see.

People think we would get Kane for £100m 
BBC says £72m
But but but for another few $'s we could've got KANE!!
And also not if you don’t include wages!
Mount and Onana were decent deals.....we were desperate for a striker so overpaying a bit, I'm not too distressed about it.
Nice
Will this get done for him to get minutes next Saturday against Lens?
I will not keep that in mind. Didn't do that for Antony and won't for this guy.
It was a face saving 'we tried' bid.
Yeah it is but our luck with big money signings has been so rotten surely this is the one that sticks. Surely.
horrible deal, shame ... for that money you add whatever extra it takes and go get Kane. As far as young prospects go, Hojlund is nothing special, we should have pursued Šeško instead, for that kind of money Leipzig would have sold him (not that either him or Hojlund are worth that sum though) 
Seriously we did. I don’t understand the jump from our first offer of around £50m including add ons to this in a couple of days. I was thinking it’ll get done for £55m plus add ons but boy I was wrong.feck me we've caved again
We just got Kaned by Atalanta
Onana was free a year ago, Mount will be free next year... bite me
I get Jackson doing it because, in the same way TalkShite pay Agbonlahor to dribble into a microphone, he wants the clicks and publicity. The cnuts on here spouting it for free are ridiculous.People think we would get Kane for £100m
True. I'm obviously not the accountancy enthusiast these folks are. I'm mainly here for the football.
That makes no sense. If he starts well people will be saying it’s a steal by Christmas. Rice just went for £105m.
People can spin this as much as they want but spending 80 mil euros on striker who has one pro season behind him in which he scored only 9 league goals is absolutely mental.
No just no. Don’t fall for this.
And Arsenal also got rinsed
£86 mil for who?
Might get to see his debut in person next Sunday againt Bilbao 
It's laughable but what can you do? Ornstein reported it first i wasn't the only one who saw it and now for some reason it's gone. I blame aliens
Hojlund said in an interview he loves Eriksen and Lindelof.
Sassy Colin
Well he is better than Sesko for one and Levy point blank refused to sell Kane to us so just as well you were not involved in the transfer.horrible deal, shame ... for that money you add whatever extra it takes and go get Kane. As far as young prospects go, Hojlund is nothing special, we should have pursued Šeško instead, for that kind of money Leipzig would have sold him (not that either him or Hojlund are worth that sum though)
Welcome
Why?
64 with 8 as add-ons
Striker!!!
We overpaid for sure. I can only hope he does well. The players that do well, their fee gets ignored. Still I’m glad we finally have a young and hungry striker.
Quality rant.horrible deal, shame ... for that money you add whatever extra it takes and go get Kane.

The Athletic literally posted an article a few weeks ago saying that Atalanta wanted €100m. Now it’s “they actually wanted €90m and you idiots paid €85m”. Bunch of wankers.
Read his tweet and work it out.
