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.
Hopefully yes, it’s a beautiful thing!
I was hoping he would feck off tbh,
You’ll get over it when he’s banging them in I’m sure.
Not if City decide to go for Haaland next summer because he’s half the price of Kane it isn’t, I’d rather City get Kane so we get a free run of all the English clubs at Haaland.
Honestly wont feel the same about him in any way, he is just an employee.
That may be the case but there are worse employees to be stuck with, he’s still a great player.
It’s a risk that’s for sure, time will tell. For Harland, I genuinely think that if he has another stellar season we’d go toe to toe with City financially.
the whole deal wont happen. I dont think Levy would sell with a week and a bit to go. This is why i said City should have done the Kane deal first, not grealish
Neville says we have to go for him to challenge for the league. I'm inclined to agree, we should go that extra mile now or we will be top 4 at best.
I'm sure some will think it's knee jerk reaction off the back of the Southampton game but I think we're a way off personally.

Easy to say go the extra mile, but it’s £120 million plus for them to even pick up the phone.
No chance.
No chance.
I wouldn’t pay 150m for Kane.
Wouldn’t bother now, stick with Greenwood up top. He’s got 20-25 goals in him this season imo.
40m plus Martial holding up a mirror at just the right angle. Let's do this.
At this rate we'd have to pay Tottenham just to take martial off us
That's where the mirror comes in. He'll look like two players for the price of one. It'll work. (what do you mean it'll double the negative value)
Unless the angle means it’s now showing Greenwood, there is no chance.
Spurs can't replace him. He's not pushing hard for a move.
So virtually no chance this happens now
Remains to be seen how he plays this season.

This deal appears dead.
I’m going to swim against the tide and say that he will move to City but only at the end of the window with Levy claiming a victory for his getting every penny out of City and good value for the players that he’s just brought in.
The fee probably 115m plus 25m in achievables plus 20 in unlikelies.

No where near enough, the longer they leave it the more Levy will want. Not sure it will happen now.
Yeah, a couple of posters may have that thought cross their mind.
"Just sign here, but if the big offer comes and you want to leave, there will be no problems"
Can't believe Levy is still successfully selling this trick to dummies.

Levy won't even consider a bid less than £150million
Yep all will be revealed next week I guess
You wont get him for £115m up front, the truth is, City have never been in this market before, established genuine WC proven English talent. I have no idea why you changed your usual MO this year because its worked so well for you, you went about this whole thing arse about face, signing Jack, who is not on the same level as Harry then offering the same, utter tomfoolery. I hope Harry gets his move, I have said it many times, but I dont think he will simply because City wont stump up the cash.
Grealish had a 100m release clause. We tried to lowball them and make some of the money conditional on incentives but Villa wouldn't hear of it.
If we just paid Levy's tipping point figure straight away that would tell the world that any player we buy in the future can go only for 30 pc above their true value.
Not good business sense
Well you won't sign him then in that case.
So instead you decided to tell the world that you are willing to pay 30% above value for Grealish. I don‘t see the difference between overpaying because of a stubborn managing director or because of a release clause. Both say pay up or move on. You paid up for the less important one first. That‘s not good business sense imo.
NO but its what happens when your a big club with your recourses, its what you have to do to get the elite players. Its why I don't get why you have completely changed how you work the transfer market.
Don’t really understand why you care.
Pep often talks up the talent that exists in the English game and he’s done well with the acquisition of Sterling, Walker and Stones already so it’s not such a leap to target Grealish and Kane.
As for the timing of the deals, Grealish had agreed to join City before the Euros. He went on holidays immediately afterwards (Dubrovnik) and the deal was wrapped up on his return.
Kane also decided to come to City if possible several weeks ago. Anyone would know what Levy is like to deal with and if you want his star player it’s plain as day that your choices are 1) pay silly money 2) sweat it out while he gets a bunch of players in at nice prices, or 3) walk away.
We maybe listened a little too much to Harry’s numpty brother/agent but there are many similarities to the Bale to Madrid saga and I believe there will be a similar conclusion now.
Fixed*
Grealish may well be fair market value at 100m, we’ll see. Sterling looked expensive when we paid 50m for him but that went OK.
We did try to get a discount on the price, didn’t just say “here you go, here’s 100m”. It didn’t happen and Villa tried to shop Jack to United and others to force City’s hand so we paid up the asking price.
Why I care, were on a football discussion forum
, would be pretty shit if we didn't discuss stuff.None of which at the time were Anywhere close to the stature of Kane.
Bale went for a world record fee at the time, Kane will be sold at the price and terms Levy wants its that simple, I just want him gone as I have said many times. Where as Levy wont give a shit how unhappy Kane is, Kane will play after the window closes , he would be an even bigger fool than he looks right now if he doesn't.

This could be Kane's last chance for a move. He'll be 48 next year.
So next summer will be the summer of Kane, Lewa and Haaland.
I would be fine with any of them replacing Cavani.

Gary Neville will now be calling for him to be knighted. What a hero!
Hero, legend, Pogba take note etc etc
