In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

Tend to agree. If you listen to Ole it seems that he maybe leaning towards promoting the younger players ,with a few additions that fits his style.

There is no way Ashley Young leaves this summer. I think we will see a similar situation to Valencia this season, where Young will be our captain on paper but (hopefully) start few games, and leave the club on a free next summer. He has just signed a new 1-year extension, and it wouldn't make much sense for him to leave now. Young is a decent backup at both RB and LB, but we have to make sure that our first-choice options are so much better than him that he is forced out of our starting 11.
Valencia being here last season was such a disaster. He earned 75,000 a week from the club. For literally nothing but showing up to training. United have to be far less kind to these types of players. You don't see City or Liverpool giving non-playing squad members new contracts.

It's now being reported Ramos wants to retire at Madrid but that doesn't mean RM will not go for De Ligt as Ramos is getting on...
Nice to see there's still loyal players if true.

Ramos can't even pretend to want to leave Madrid properly.
Think it's definitely true with him. He's a Brummie and a Villa lad, so he would prefer to stay with them in the Prem if he could. If Spurs offered him a lot more cash (
) he might think about it, but we both know that's not happening.Mangala was offered by City for another year extension when he can go for free this summer so he extended his contract. Liverpool has many deadworks.
What are you talking about ? He signed a 2 year contract in 2017 at a time when he was still playing very well. He had played 43 matches the season before, and played 38 matches in 2017/2018. So he was never given a contract when he was a non-playing member of the squad. In fact when he was given the contract he was a clear first-choice, unfortunately his form dropped at the end of the 17/18 season
Televisa presenta, Sergio Ramos y Florentino Perez.
he really does have terrible hair.
He still lives in Birmingham so he's cool there.

I wasn't speaking about Valencia in particular. But that we're giving extensions to guys like Jones and Young who simply don't play or play well enough for a team hoping to win the league or champions league. In terms of Valencia, we should have released him before this season and given his squad place to a youth player. We wasted $75,000 a week on a player who never had a hope of playing.

Surely he didn't need much convincing.
The hard part was always getting the money from inter.
Every day we see that exact article re Lukaku, and everytime I say that I bet they can't come up with the money.
Right but they're getting money for Mangala and can loan him out for a fee + wages. Nobody is going to pay us for guys like Ashley Young, Phil Jones, Antonio Valencia, Matteo Darmien (in this case we might get 5 million).
If wouldn't bother with countinho there. If they re willing to take Lingard 30 mil I'd just give them that for nothing in return.
What a surprise.
Surely them Chinese overlords will aim to make their new coach happy and will pay the asked price for his biggest desire signing.
Do you think Inter can come up with the money to get Lukaku?
No. But they'll likely have other cunning plans to acquire him at minimal risk and cost to them.
I would happily help with a donation.
I just wish we had got Conte instead as quite a lot of the players we had would have suited him and he got the best out of Pogba, Matic and is really high on Lukaku, plus he was able to take a Chelsea side that finished mid table the previous season to be champions so if anyone could have got us back challenging for the title next season instead of having to wait another 3 or 4 seasons now, he would have been our best bet.
Whoosh
Waited a bit to see if Ed said he'd give him £600k a week ... Ed not playing this year so Ramos just went straight to "I'm staying". Yawn
He would last one season before he went the same way as Mourinho. He is very similar to Mourinho in that he wants complete control over transfers, often has rather unconventional transfer targets who may be hit or miss and definitely would lose patience with Woodward.
If we are to rebuild, we need stability and Conte wouldn't offer that. Better Allegri actually.
I'm sick of these Italian clubs, they want players, they don't have money and offer utter shit like Perisic in exchange.
Yeah, i'd pay Ashley Young his trip to DC myself. He can do a 30hr flight in economy class with a layover in Morocco as far as i'm concerned. If he has any issues with the flight i'm sure he'll cope given his expertise in shouting.
He would probably turn the flight around and head back.
Why not allow Inter to pay in instalments? Both should work this out as both want it to happen. At least it gets the player's wages off the club's accounts first
So in short, Perez has told Ramos no more payrise and he should suck it up :s13:
Pretty much all transfers happen in installments now. Paying everything in full would be much rarer. Usually only when you're dealing with a release clause and an uncooperative club.
Thought so too. Anything near 55m euros we should really accept it. We won't get anywhere near this offer next year and the next
