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.

I think so too. Looks more like a political play than one which will actually result in Messi leaving.
This is a myth that has existed for a decade without evidence. We don't sign players for marketing reasons. My bet would be Inter Milan.
I know FFP is all but a joke now, but still, his wages are massive, they are not going to be able to hide that on the books especially in a time with a lot less revenue due to no crowds. We freed up a lot of wages by letting Sanchez go and a few more will be going by the end.
It's on i say. Messi 10 and Rashford 7?
Is not a question anyone should ever ask about Messi
Feck it for Muppets - may be this is why we are stalling Sancho deal and Messi is not ruling us out.
No way he’s going to go to United when we’re in such transition. He can obviously not be arsed with the impending Barcelona transition. Doesn’t strike me as the guy who wants a real challenge to end with. He will want to have it as chilled as possible. PSG bound.
City will be tough to beat next season.
He may be too deficient in the pressing part to be played centrally, so my guess is the 'Mata' role for us, playing freely on the right with license to roam around wherever he would like. And AWB left to mop up behind him defensively along with help from Matic.
Yes.
The way things are going he’ll be a Chelsea player by the morning.
He will stay. And even if he leaves now he is going to PSG to play with Neymar and ADM. No way he is moving to Manchester.
Spent his whole career there and he's their captain, surely he can't run away at the time they're at their lowest. Will be interesting to see what's the reaction of the Barcelona fans to this.
Come on Messi, take on the challenge of Messi!
He did it like four times in the past five years, and that's at one of Barca's worst periods.
Relax guys Messi will not leave
Who is going to pay his 100M wages ? Messi is clever , he knows how he can pressure Barcelona.

Incredible if true
Nah, Messi 9 and Martial 11
Other than defenders and goal keeper you can play him in any position and he will still be the best in the world.
Bartomeu better gets out of the city as quickly as possible, there will be no mercy for him and his team at all if it truly happens.
Its on!
One thing is clear.. IF he has decided to leave, he already has decided his club too.
Can't wait for the report that says adidas will pay half his £1m a week wages.
Conte is staying, connect the dots. I can see Conte meeting with the owner of Inter saying get me Messi or I leave.
Well this is the caf so default starting position here of course.
I'd say he's done quite a bit more than his fair share for them already...
Took them from being the distant no.2 club in Spain to the biggest club in the world for a time period playing some of the best football we've ever seen.
They should be grateful for that and accept it if he truly wants to leave after giving them 15+ years of his life rather than be bitter ungrateful fecks

Adidias get the chequebook out.
It's rumored that he wants to test himself against Phil Jones in training every day.
Phil Jones plays for hospital FC
So where would he go?
PSG would seem to be the obvious choice.
Pep (not money) could entice him to City.
I imagine Roman could fund him for Chelsea.
Dont think Juve can afford him and Ronaldo.
Would Ed and co offer wages that would be substantially more than Sanchez was on?

[RAC1] Barça confirms that it has received a bureaufax from Leo Messi asking to accept the clause of his contract to terminate his contract with Barça. The club says that he had until June 10 to terminate the contract and that it is in the hands of the legal services.
There was a thread here on the caf from like 12 years ago about cafites ready to donate one ball to sign Messi...I think your time has come.
Oxymoron
IT's ON!!!!!!
From what I have read looks like it is Inter?
Wow
Fax? Oh well, that rules us out then
Someone above posted that they think it could be an underhand tactic to force Bartomeu to resign. I'd say thats spot on.
