In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss United's last 3 games - two much-needed wins vs. Burnley in the Premier League and Palace in the League Cup, as well as a the 4-3 loss away at Bayern. They discuss the defence, new options in midfield with Hannibal and Amrabat now in contention and look forward to games vs. Palace (again!) and Galatasary.

Thanks for everything, Dave.

It was time but the club as usual made a right mess of his departure
Sad that he’s gone

Legend. Good luck in your next step.
Thank you Dave!
So long and good luck, Dave. Thanks for the memories.
Legend.
Good luck! I was a fan of his (until recently), but I am excited to see a change in goal.
Average in his last few years but he was fecking incredible for almost a decade, and likely the best goalkeeper in the world for a year or two. Easily, United‘s best player of last decade, and at his bes, probably the best keeper we ever had. His top level was just incredible.
I wish him all the best.

Sad day…loved this guy. Will be missed.
Him saving his last ever penalty in an United shirt is so utterly hilarious.
This man has been an impediment to us ever being a great defensive unit. Best paid keeper in the world, with one stand out skill. About time, bye Dave.
Wish him the best and definitely a legend for me.
feck those at the club who were responsible for him not getting the farewell he deserved.
It was the right decision for him to leave but not this way.
Sticking to the positive, I'll never forget his run of absolutely fantastic performances from 2014-2018. That was up there with some of the best goalkeeping performances I've seen.
All the best Dave and happy he at least got to win one PL title here even though his performances probably deserved more.

It was time for him to leave, past time really. But 4x player of the year and undoubtedly a club legend. I hope he succeeds at his next club.
At his peak he was the best keeper on the world then modern football almost changed overnight.
That fax machine must be a sliding doors moment he’ll always wonder about

Thank you David and good luck
Forever a United legend. One of the best we've ever had. Hero.
All the best, Dave. Legend in my heart!!
Legend. Thank you for the memories and all the best David.
Thanks for your service Dave.
Don’t think I’ve ever witnessed such a consistently formidable shop-stopper as De Gea between 2014-2018, some of the stuff he pulled just seemed impossible and we’d have really struggled under Van Gaal and Mourinho without him.
Incredible career. Shame we didn't have more success when he was at his peak.
Saudi : old wages or more. Why the feck not
thank you for all the great memories Dave!
thank you for all the great memories Dave!
I feel like it's the right change for the club to make, as long as we have the replacement lined up already.
But it doesn't sit right that he didn't get a farewell at Old Trafford and a chance for us to thank him for his service.

United have handled this very poorly
He got van gaal'd :/
A real shame he never got a proper send off for 12 years service. Thanks for everything Dave.
It was time for a refresh in goal so excited to see Onana and what he can bring.

Legend in my eyes. World class for a period, always wore his heart on his sleeve. One of those players you knew playing for the club meant a lot to him. While he hasn’t been at his best recently, he still had some great performances and the abuse he took online was as hard to see. An absolute pro.
He was exceptional between 13/14 - 17/18. Thank you for those years.
Time to move on to a new era.

With him and Phil Jones now having left, that’s the last of the Fergie era gone, isn’t it?
Up there with Schmeichel and van der Sar. Best of luck, Dave saves.
All the best Dave. That game against Arsenal was perhaps the best shot stopping performance we’ve seen in the Prem.
Club legend and our player of the decade overall. He saved us from so many embarrassments throughout the LVG era, I think he made an argument for being the best keeper in the world at that time.
Will always be remembered as one of our greatest ever shot stoppers. Dave will start getting his props in a couple of years once the fan base has calmed.
One of our best ever keepers. Wish him the best of luck for the rest of his career.
Deserved better at the end but I'm sure he knows as well as anyone it is time. Cheers, Dave!
