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.

Didn't he refuse to play or something in the lines? It just happened recently, can't remember if it was against City in the Champions League or in the league.
I think it was Bale, that was suggested to be taken on loan to us for a stop gap until we bring Sancho.
Anyhow, back on Bale - I don't think he would leave Madrid on a free as they have to pay off his contract. If there's a club genuinely interested in him, it won't be much of a pay cut, since he'll be joining as a free agent. But then I'm curious which club would be ready to put up with his antics.
How does Levy, for example, confidently offer Bale 300k a week, without worrying for a moment that Gareth could at any moment say "I don't like working with Mourinho - Wales, Golf, working with Jose - in that order."
It's a really curious case as there is a good player and athlete in him, but his mentality is questionable. I'm interested to see how does this saga unfold. My best guess is he runs down his contract, whilst enjoying the sun and improving his approach play, and then struggling to get a contract at a top club.
A player that can play CB, LB & CDM. 3 positions we need a signing in for depth. This would just be such an intelligent transfer for us to do but I don't feel like we will.
I must say I wasn't really rating Perisic, especially during the transfer saga we had with him. But after his world cup performances and watching some Bayern games I think he's a very good player. He could be very useful here, but we're crying out for a right winger, not left.
Achraf Hakimi finally got announced.

That's a great signing for them
You mean when he was told he wouldn't feature therefore decided he wouldn't travel with the team?
Saul talks about him getting linked to big clubs like United.

Batshuayi pretty much gives away the fact that he'll be going to Palace on loan after signing a new contract.

Flick wants to reinforce his squad as he finds it to be too small. Obviously, this would be the case now that the loanees have returned to their parent clubs.

Roma were initially in the lead to get Nehuen Perez on loan from Atletico Madrid, but they also wanted an option to buy. Atletico don't want to lose such a promising talent yet. As a result, Parma have taken the lead given that they're with not having any option to buy Perez.

Are there people who have subscribed for theathletic?
Do you feel happy with the subscription?
I didn't want to open a whole thread, nor I want to derail this one.
Curious. I forgot to cancel just before the trial ran out, don't see anything fancy or worthy in there.
Apparently, we submitted an offer for Victor Osimhen, but the player rejected the offer out of respect for Odion Ighalo. Seems legit...

Note: Victor's agent previously claimed that Liverpool and Tottenham both tried to sign him as well.

what links??? News to me!
maybe that's why we cant afford to pay Sancho his £1.5m Dortmund bonus fee. Have the balance to books.

Memphis has reached an agreement with Barcelona, but there's no club agreement yet. Barcelona are also talking to Wijnaldum's agents.

There’s already a thread somewhere, but you’d have to search for it, as I haven’t seen it bumped for a while.

According to the article, it was based on links from England (probably from weak sources over the past several months) and Rio Ferdinand advocating for the signing. Basically, there's nothing new.
I read this as Gareth Barry and was very confused.
This would be a massive signing for Fulham. Apparently, they could get Alphonse Areola on loan from PSG.

With Branislav Ivanovic now a free agent, he could return to the Premier League.
Ivanovic himself mentioned that he might close to joining Everton.

That’s still 300k which is too much. No club will do it.
Ivanovic is too slow for PL football surely
he was three years ago when he left tbf

I got the trial but I found it very underwhelming to be honest.
I follow a lot of the football writers on twitter and many of them moved from various newspapers to the Athletic once it entered the UK market so I was a little bit curious to see what the standard was like. Twitter headlines make it look like the dog's Bo**ox but yeah, it's not great.

Someone will take him on and he may be brilliant, but I wouldn’t let him anywhere near our side. That last thing our young players need is someone with a crap attitude. That’s why dumping Lukaku and Sanchez was such a priority, even though one of them contributed a lot of goals.
Double that actually. But if he's out of contract he'll settle for less yearly over a longer deal i guess
Valencia's Cristiano Piccini has joined Atalanta on loan with an option to be purchased.
