I don’t think they’ll care when they see Lewandowski et al in the new Spotify kit. The next lever will be pulled in 12 months

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.

Whatever man. I don't take offense to it personally, I couldn't care less. I'm just calling you out for being a hypocrite.
I’ve decided to do likewise. This transfer is genuinely 50-50, so there’s no point speculating.
The best part of that was the report translated from Bulgarian.
22m : 2 years is 11m or ~210k/wk. So he's been playing for (almost) free for 2 years.
Anyway, if he's on 350k/wk this season with Barca, it means we need to at least match that. Which is not that ridiculous, as we pay Sancho that much also.
they should just incorporate that during the presentation of the new players and have them pull a huge lever instead of showing tricks and skills in the stadium.
I guess with him signing a new deal that could include a signing bonus
Probably. Well this signing is still far away, I guess. If it's true that personal terms hasn't been discussed yet.
I think a lot of people tend to have hope completely tied to a single person, but in real world, it’s often unlike that. For team sports, it’s even more so. There will be solution, either an alternative or a different approach. Not getting FDJ is far from the end of world. In the meantime, it is not guaranteed success even though he joins us.
Yeah if personal terms aren't sorted then definitely won't be done in time for Friday
Officially
Aren't personal terms usually resolved fairly quickly?
I would never succeed as a professional footballer. My club tries to do this shit with me I’ll be on Instagram Live expeditiously saying feck the whole Barcelona hierarchy, name by name, with 2Pac’s Hit Em Up playing in the background
Alex Crook, Van der Kraan and Goldbridge live on Talksport.
Might get some more info
Might get some more info
First two yes but last one is all about getting viewers and subscribers
Yes.
Frenkie was a Barca fan as a kid?
As long as the fee is agreed with Barca, we all can relax much more.
Do you mind posting here if so please. I don't want to have to listen to Goldbridge!
Seems the issue from that side of things is the addons
I don't know, mate. Then there's fitness test that take another week, going by Malacia's.
I reckon 425k per week will be good enough
Exactly. For all we know, the only reason he’s contemplating joining us is due to the fact that we’ll pay him more than Barca, where he’ll have to take a pay cut to stay and sign a new contract. On the other hand, he’s a brilliant player so could be sensational anyway.
I’m just going to go with the flow. We have many other signings to make who will be just as important as him, like Lisandro and a Ronaldo replacement.
True.. true . Wink winkOfficially
With the Cruyff link I imagine it’s fairly common in the Netherlands.
Dont think that reached 500 pages?

Alex Crook didn't say anyting we don't already know for those interested.
Van der Kraan is on next.
Van der Kraan is on next.
You have to laugh if that’s genuine. So we’ve potentially spent 2 months negotiating with Barce without getting the green light from the player who could very much just decide to stay at Barce?
Would be a whole new level of failure even for us.
What's funny? VDK is well connected.
And the last one you mentioned
Refuse to believe this is true
And?
Why? Of course it's true.
the "offer" to stay on reduced wages is nothing more than posturing so that they can then blame the player for choosing the money when he leaves. Don't fall for Barcelonas propaganda.
The guy seems like a really nice down to earth guy. He gives a good vibe.
Although his pant is a bit too tight for his age.
also Malacia does have that Evra's smile.
We would spend 2 months locked in negotiations with no apparent alternative without getting absolute assurance from the player he’s willing to join us? In fact the suggestion there is he’s potentially so unwilling he’d take a pay cut.
Seems unlikely to me. Barca propaganda I reckon.
It's been reported multiple times he's open to joining and that personal terms wouldn't be an issue.
The latest is that he is unwilling to take a paycut.
