I've never been as desperate for us to shut up the ABU media as I am right now. Their coverage* the past few days has been disgraceful.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

If Shitty have pulled out we can lower our cash bid and give them Mikki.
If true then I'm glad he chose money.
Still not done, still not convinced. But ever since he wanted to leave, I wondered why we weren't ever in for him. Premier league proven, can play in multiple positions, world class, and a workhorse.
I'd rather not offer Mkhi, and just pay cash. Get rid of mkhi for cash, even if its 20 mill, rather than whats effectively 5. We need to get the deadwood off our wage list though if we want to bring in a marquee signing or two in the summer, wouldnt be shocked to see young go despite having great form (in the summer) as his wages are ludicrous.

Some clubs can afford to pay £400k a week to Alexis. Others chose to pay £150k a week to Theo Walcott
Unpopular opinion but I think Tony is beginning to fade.
If you do actually do it, let me know how it went. Not being weird or anything, just curious is all.
I can only wonder what Lacazette is thinking now. Get to play alongside Sanchez and Ozil then in a few months he'll have neither.
City pull out? Thats me going balls deep and shaking some hot white coconuts from the veiny love tree.
A Liverpool mate told me he’s they’ll snatch him. Then I told him that a wee shit club like Liverpool can barely meet half of his wage demands.
Pogba needs to play further up the pitch.
He struggling with injury for sure.
Fergie could have signed him in 09 and then again in 2011 before Barca signed him.
Hope you're on about Valencia.
Want some vinegar with that salt ya cnut?
Yep.
I’d prefer a 4-3-3.. Pogba for me has to play on the left side of a 3, it’s where he is most effective. Then Martial/Sanchez either side of Rom.
Think it depends how Malcom goes as well. Arsenal will want him signed first.
People have said that before about him and he's come fighting back.
One thing I don't understand after reading some Arsenal fan viewpoints on this.
When Van Persie left them because he wanted to win trophies at United, it was a betrayal and they hated him and us for it.
But now some of them seem willing to drive Sanchez up to City themselves for the opportunity to win a trophy that was already won before he gets there. Some of them seem to see it as some sort of virtuous, even heroic move on his part. Especially compared to a horrible, grubby, money driven move to United.
That irrational hatred at all costs is the reason City will never be a truly big club and United always will be.

Interestingly this phrase is common place in a Glasgow fish and chip shop.
But perhaps we need the impact he'll hopefully have now more than then. Things have a funny way of working themselves out - take Pogba for example.
This argument has one flaw.
City were going to pay 60m for him less than 6 months ago.

God i'm buzzing for this transfer. I've always admired Sanchez and genuinely over the moon that it looks like we're getting this guy. A world class player whose been consistently one of the best players in the league in a desperately average side. He could work wonders here.
Great to hear.
I'm still shocked. What a twist! M.Night Shyamalan esque.
Don't you love how these people factor in wages despite not doing it for any other transfer.
If City was signing him it would be a fantastic deal. The pure hatred for us is beautiful.Banter
Is this moment Man Utd boss Mourinho LEAKED Alexis Sanchez transfer news SIX months ago?

I assumed he means Tony the Tiger.
With the high sugar content of Frostys the poor sod ended up diabetic, lost a leg... tragic stuff.
I am a bit flumoxed about what relevance it has to the topic though.
Must play a mid 3.
Pog can't play in the midfield 2.
Yes, against fodder it'll do (sometimes), but against even decent opposition it falls apart.
If we do get him, it really isn't a signing that should be indicative of anything in the spending discussion. The figure quoted for one of the leagues best players in the last few seasons, in an area we need to improve, are fantastic business regardless of his contract.
What should we do? Ignore the chance, and spend 60m in the summer on a lesser player? Same figure has been quoted for Jonny Evans, it's no brainer. The guys itching for a money spending discussion and comparison with city will need to wait

Well I, for one, am outraged we’re spending £200m+ on a 38 year old. Woodward is an idiot.
Chile missing out on the World Cup is great for us.
And he’ll get a rest this summer.
Did they pull out without impregnating him, though?
Love how the media is trying to spin Sanchez as a complete waste of money it's hilarious.
ANNOUNCE SANCHEZ
Or right before the game to create an extra buzz. Haven't we done that before, quite recently? I have a vague memory of something like that.
