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?

Plus, if he was to stay, he'll have missed his opportunity to join us as we'll find another solution.
It's Atletico's fault. He needn't feel guilty.
He's probably training with France today for his game tomorrow, what are the odds we'll get a few pictures of him and Pogba together in training today?
Agent Pogba better work his magic!

I'd say the biggest issue here is going to be they can demand we pay the whole fee upfront? Now, that is likely to be a problem.
Why make things complicated, when a balanced option is handed to you? The only reason behind your proposition is to accomodate Pogba who doesn't deserve it.
----------Mbappé
Lemar---Griezmann---Dembélé
--------Pogba---Kanté
Mendy--Umtiti-Varane--Sidibé
------------Lloris
That one suits Griezmann tendency to move around and provides more cover and support for Sidibé and Mendy, it also put the striker in his actual position.
If we trigger the clause with an upfront payment, will Griezmann REALLY say no to us because his bosses had been dodgy previously? We will more than likely offer him terms too good to turn down. There is hardly any loyalty left in football anymore. It can be a short career so players need to make the most of it. I really do not see an issue with the transfer ban, all it does is stop them registering players.
Arsenal says hello.
This would work very well, but Lemar would be the absolute key player in making it happen. I wouldn't play that if someone like Martial or Coman were in Lemar's place.
I like that too to be fair. I love Lemar so would like to see that.
Pogba Kante would leave you slightly unbalanced in centre but if they could make it work that's a good looking side.
Wow...
Is James Ducker reliable? Surely that isn't the case.
And let the meltdown begin.
Oh no
Seems if anyone is he is.

Doesn't change anything, exactly what Di Marzio said with us prioritising Morata. It means that our #1 priority was to sign a number 10 first but now with Ibra injured, signing a number 9 is considered more important. It doesn't mean that we won't sign the 10.
Ah, it was all too good to be true.
Those tweets will annoy the hell out of this forum but honestly they make sense.

By the sounds of it, feck.
Wow!
never liked relying on a pensioner and now last years short term thinking has cost us griezmann this year? GuttedSeems a bit silly to me if it's true. Guess Jose needs his powerful number 9. I'd rather we just gave Rashford a chance, waited for Ibra and sign Griezmann as the main man. Guess that's not happening.
We need both though. We can work multiple deals at one time
Balls. Onto the next one?
So we can't afford Griezmann AND a striker? Oh well
Yep, close thread for now?
Why? From one tweet?
Well that's fecking annoying.
The Zlatan injury could have a huge impact if that's the case, it would suck to spend our budget trying to replace someone we got on a free.
Well if it's true then we might as well go all out for Mbappe.

Mbappe? Morata apparently wants Milan, Lukaku will cost a shitload, i say lets get the fecker out of Monaco
One of the World's best players and finishers willing to join and a fan of the club? Nah feck that. Feck this transfer window. Linked with average dross now this.
Why is everyone suddenly alarmed when Ducker is just repeating what Di Marzio said regarding our prioirities?
Belotti most probably.
Maybe it comes down to whether we can complete the other targets with enough budget remaining to pay the Griezmann RC in one lump sum. This could be a transfer made late in the window which will make for a transfer thread for the ages.
