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.

Why would he want to go and play in Italy?
What reputation actually? Of a good full-back? Of a leader? I am not getting it really. If anything he is a synonym of this disastrous last 6.5 years. At his best he was a good PL winger, in the last years he is part of a team often branded as having a lack of leadership and very bad full backs.
He is very abysmal in playing football, how about that? Also didn't he give one absolute baffling post match interview last year? The captain of Ed Woodward era Manchester United, I think it was after that Everton debacle, where he claimed you can't fault the effort of this team. Yeah, okey captain marvel.
Game time,different experience to finish his career.
He’ll most like get Champions League.
Weather, city, food, new expereince/culture, more game time, better chances to win a title. Another 2 years in Italy, win something and then retring sounds good to me
Oh yeah, that's great. That will more than make up for the regular monkey chants and abuse he'll get each week.
We need to counter offer this with €7m for both Smalling and Jones.
Why would he want to play here?
Oh shit. What happened?
Caf unable to depersonalise player opinions. Who knew?
That wasn't my question. I asked why he would go to Italy specifically as mentioned already.
I'm happy for Smalling. He was never good enough to be a first 11 player for United but deserves to play every game for a decent club and be appreciated. He was a good servant.
I don't know. That's why I used "surprised"
But when Leipzig want to get rid so quickly odds are it's because Nagelsmann doesn't see (or want to give) a chance for him to play regularly.
Do it. We need the money.
Its as if he hasn't been racially abused in England....
oh, apologies. I was reading the latter half where you said he can't or won't work with him. I thought he came out and said that himself which would be damning. I am a bit surprised by how little gametime he has been given though. There must be something up with him as he was always a last resort for us at Everton despite being ability wise a level above most of our wingers during that period.I don't know. That's why I used "surprised"
But when Leipzig want to get rid so quickly odds are it's because Nagelsmann doesn't see (or want to give) a chance for him to play regularly.
At the same time Leipzig probably wouldn't have signed him a second time for "a lot" of money if he was an obvious head case. Maybe something will leak after he has left.
In no world is Pereira a better footballer than Lingard.
Even our valuation of 20 is way low. Surely there is a mid-level prem club that would be willing to pay more than that.
Pereira is clearly a much better player, and seems to have improved this season as well. Still not good enough for the level we strive for, but could do a good job for a top half side.
Of course that doesn’t happen in England
He’s pretty much joining that in Italy plus it’s a great city.
Neither are good enough but Pereira's been comfortably the better footballer this season.
He's actually contributing something from an attacking point of view from time to time.
The way United are playing right now(not convinced by the 1 dimensional style personally), they would benefit from buying a set piece taker in a similar mould to Alexander Arnold. Given the height of our team, we are pretty shite heading in corners, I barely can remember when one of our players convincingly connected a header. it hurts every time when we put in a corner and the first man heads it away. Absolutely school kid delivery.
But it can also be blamed on our player's movements.

So what black players should just go and hide now? People are arseholes everywhere, and that shouldn't stop him going to a different country and experience something different.
huh? He means there sure is a PL club that will pay 20 or more for Smalling. Arsenal could do worse than him
With posts like that I wonder how much of him you have seen to be honest.
Good post.
Arsenal will need a WC centre back and I can see Arteta following Peps model in going for one
Everything is just pushed to the extreme on here isn't it? Pretending Young has been useless for 9 years 
its just daft. Don't people realise its hard to take posts seriously when its made up of over the top hysterical nonsense.

Shouldn't sell for less than €30 million given our options at the moment.
Little did they know the contract also said Phil Jones name in it

Seems to be getting more serious now....
Serious consideration until Jan 30th.
The best part of that article is saying Longstaff is "no longer under serious consideration"
And obviously this: “but Solskjaer also admires Van de Beek’s Ajax team-mate, Hakim Ziyech, the 26-year-old Morocco winger”
"Serious consideration" bore off with this crap. Clickbait bollocks.

Yeah i get that but hes by no means the worst offender and at least cares. A pre contract for next season isn't asbad as losing him in jan but we can only get rid of so many players. The squad is already ridiculously low on numbers.
It can mean there are talks with the club and agent but not decided to put an official bid in yet.
