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.

Never bought into that £50m stuff
I guess nobody needs a twitter-message to know how "relaxed" Woodward always is. He proofed this for years. Its interessting, you have two clubs, one is nearly always the first with their buisness and transfers fninshed, having solved everything before its gets busy. The other is nearly always the last of all clubs, preparing bids and all this. Now they have to meet each other. I guess it was for a reason that Dortmund pronounced a deadline day. A professionall DoF at United would have known the circumstances (you need to have in mind to deal with other clubs). With Woodward you need to bump him into with his nose.
Do you not think you've made your point about how terribly United is run already? We get it now. Dortmund are the greatest and most well run club in the world, whereas United are hugely incompetent and are therefore in borderline administration.
You sound upset to be honest.
I've no idea why anyone would contest this, with most of the Caf having moaned about the pace of our transfers at some point. People were losing their shit over the Bruno saga just 6 months ago!
I can only assume that you being 'one of them there outsider folk' has mobilised the pitchforks.
Dortmund aren’t going to turn down £80m+ because it’s a day or two later. What a ridiculous position to hold.
A club that’s biggest current claim to fame is buying young talents cheap letting them play and then selling for a profit abroad or allowing them to leave to Bayern.
Wait, iam preparing a post.
Nah. Sancho is/was a great footballer in our team. I enjoyed having him here, i think he enjoyed it too. We bought him for an apple and an egg, now getting a massive fee for him. I couldn't be more relaxed. Zorc is a genius. I wouldn't switch, if i had the choice between being a United fan and being desperate for a RW since years and now have to argue with my mates and forums how much we want or can pay for him, or being a Dortmund fan, sitting relaxed in a chair, seeing massive sums here and there, and knowing that Zorc got his future plans already in the agenda... It was a good time with Sancho. Now he helps getting the club more and more up on the ladder, exactly that was the plan. So, pay Woodward pay! You lazy bastard! So that we can go on.
They're not even the best run club in Germany
They always have loads of talent yet have hardly ever had a sniff of the league title since Klopp got sacked.
Being a factorg/developmental club for bigger teams seems to be their model though so I imagine winning isn't too high on their list of priorities.
Who is this Harry Pinero guy on instagram who has tweeted about Sancho today
Hurry to put the money together? Boy you think we are some lower league team? You will take the 80-90m we give you and will accept it gladly even if we are a week late than this so called “deadline” cause you will only get half that if you keep him till next summer.
Wouldn't be surprised if Dortmund tweeted this post in full.According to Reddit and Muppetiers they are close friends and follow each other on social media.
Corrected it for you.They're not even the best run club inGermanyEngland

They have lots of pictures together.
Another day and more signs that this deal is getting oh so very close.
I have not been following this transfer to closely. Has this thread reached muppet status yet?
Starting to feel this will be all done and dusted before it can truly reach proper mad muppet levels.
It’s a bit worrying, really. Bunch of grown men role playing online.
You’re outrageously tedious, man.
We get it. Rich English club = silly; German club = efficient!!!
Just wait, We are preparing a bid
The feck is this Dortmund fan coming here on to our forum to shite on us and come with this smug attitude? And a newbie to boot! Hopefully the 5 posts are up, cause I can't stand reading the crap he spews. Not even worth responding to anything he says directly.
Anyway, love the comment from Zorc, just further solidifies and justifies going full muppet mode on this. Hopefully we will have a chance for all our local Lip reading, hand writing, plane tracking, and especially gizz making muppets the opportunity to do what every great transfer needs!

They lost the league by just two points last season.They're not even the best run club in Germany

It's just his insecurities as he knows their best player is coming to us. He's trying to make us feel as bad as he does - but the Sancho party doesn't stop baby
When Ed Woodward is 'relaxed' you know it's not £75m in his hands.
More like, £750m transfer kitty.

Cheers, only seems like a matter of time now!
Hell yeah!! For the first time in years I've not been as excited about our team and the direction we going!It's just his insecurities as he knows their best player is coming to us. He's trying to make us feel as bad as he does - but the Sancho party doesn't stop baby
Starting to ramp up this week. Exciting
It's always puzzled me that fans of clubs like Dortmund possess so much contentment in their club being well run and making huge profits from transfers when ultimately it amounts to very little sustained success or silverware. From a fan perspective, my club having a great business model just isn't something I could ever truly revel in and celebrate.
Who the feck is this?
Same here. I'm a little scared to get too excited as we've had false dawns before - but this is the best football we've played ever since Fergie.Hell yeah!! For the first time in years I've not been as excited about our team and the direction we going!
If we can keep Pogba and add Sancho like we expect, we really are looking strong. Another CB, and a world class DM and LB and we are up there with the best.
He's apparently friends with Sancho and has lots of photos/videos with him online. Fair to say he'd have a direct line to Sancho.
Come on mate, why so salty? Enjoy the ride! Seems that you guys getting Sancho, Dortmund a lot of money, win-win!
I don't want to "shit" on you, i am just responding to senseless posts aimed at my direction instead of talking about what is the subject here.
You can call him Sir Harrington The 1st when Sancho arrives at Carrington
I suppose if you’re use to being a feeder club you just develop that mindset. You know eventually your best player is leaving you so it’s not much ado about nothing. You’re just use to it. On to the next educated guess of hot property talent you can give a platform to develop and increase in value so you can sell them on once again.
As for the length of time it takes us to do do deals we shop normally in different markets. Instead of just paying 100mil right off the bat any good sensible buisness man is going to be patient until they can get the lowest price they possibly can.
Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. This just looks like Zorc posturing To try and make United look incompetent, deep down I’m sure he knows Sancho is leaving and they probably aren’t going to get as much as they would have last summer.
It certainly isStarting to ramp up this week. Exciting
Scratch this money together... you really want to start comparing the 2 club’s finances ? You might end up being pleasantly surprised. Are you always like this whenever Dortmund sell a valuable player or just on this occasion?
My gut feeling since Matic signed contract is that Utd are going to assess the DM position for a while. Personally if that gets us the right player in that position then will be worth the wait.
In regards to LB I think we will keep faith with Shaw & Williams and bring through Laird who apparently can play both sides.
Expect movement on CB once we have managed to sell Rojo and let Smalling join Roma on permanent deal.
He’s just annoyed that Dortmund are largely irrelevant to us unless we’re helping ourselves to their best player, as is tradition.
