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 they're skint. Why another good club isn't showing interest is anyone's guess though.
Jesse proved he's a good player for teams around those area's yet there seems to be zero interest.
Reports are saying they want to buy Tammy Abraham for 30m. I think they want to get Lingard on the cheap is why they're not making an offer yet. I hope Leicester or Everton comes in for Lingard soon.
thanks ...seen too many unnecessary tweets posted like this, all these unknown transfer news aggregators, Sports witness at least provide link to their own website and the articles are well sourced, but MU or utdreport tweets are unnecessary, they just repeat what's been posted already, hope the mods can also clamp down on banned accounts

Isn't the source the Athletic?

I think they literally just tagged the athletic to give their tweet validity. (It’s possible they didn’t, but a fair few Twitter accounts do this
Fake aggregator account I believe. Because these accounts are proving more popular, they're having copycat accounts created against them. Which is absolutely pathetic
I don't think that's the issue, the Athletic already has a Twitter account where they post snippets of the info in their articles, these aggregator accounts just repeat it ...and I have seen some use the Athletic to give credence to what they post..
I think it's enough to get posts from journalists accounts and news outlets accounts, no need to post these unknown aggregators
Ah I see, thanks for the info. Pathetic these aggregator accounts.
I don't mind good aggregator accounts. It's handy having ones dedicated to United so that you can follow them and get all of your news in one place. I find utdreport to be decent, but I understand why people don't like them. They have a tendency to take a line from an article and just tweet that, which when taken out of context can be interpreted differently
Good to follow your ambitions and join a bigger club than Spurs
This is why its generally sound to avoid aggregator accounts all together and repost directly from journo and team accounts.

I can see what youre saying. It has been reported in a lot of places, that the Sancho money is being spread over a number of years (rather than all up front like we did with Maguire)
And it was even reported yesterday the Varane money is being spread over years (which is insane to think about). So that more than halves the spend already. Now obviously it works both ways as PSG might offer 50m for Pogba, but pay it over 2 or 3 seasons. I guess it depends on the structure of the deals. If we say Sancho (Atletic say 73 over 5 years)
So for this year its only 15, and then Varane (if we say its 34 over even max 2 years) 17
So weve only hit 32 of the budget this year.
Makes it all manageble to then get two more players and a possible third based on sales.
Obviously that hits future windows, but if we are getting it right this year, then next season we dont need 4-5 signings, but just the 1 or 2 (eg a striker).
I think @mufcMPB seems quite accurate when aggregating news.
It's @mufcMBP that make things up. This is the fake account.

Sometimes when you actually find the quote Utdreport have taken a snippet from, it really is bad from them. A small snippet from some nothing comment from Fabrizio Romano on his podcast can be interpreted as breaking news.

From what I've heard the amount made available to transfers each window calculate the full transfer cost , not just this years outlay.
Oh right I forgot how Norway is just a part of Denmark now.
First read this as Mario Balotelli.
Some lazy ass journalism right there.But, I'd take him as a Pogba replacement if the money was right

In my opinion a good thread on transfer reporting
This fecking idiot thinks he's the transfer Messiah.
Maybe if they'd stop blatantly lying about every god damn thing he wouldn't receive the abuse he gets.

It's the same pathetic people, who abuse these reporters that are feeding the charlatans with their desperation. Liars exist, because people with thousands of likes and retweets for telling them what they want to hear.
Yep for sure. People get way too literally into thinking someone is 100% right or wrong, always good or shit, or if it doesn't happen then it was made up bullshit or something. So much of course that goes into it that it's crazy the abuse they get.
Would be a great buy for them. Has his flaws though. Wonder what all the Chelsea fans downplaying Varane will say about him
What a strange coincidence that they open talks as soon as we agreed a fee and personal terms with Varane. Maybe they were more interested than they were letting on?

Stick a fork in this
Poor Sam. Don’t get me wrong, people abusing journalists over transfers are pathetic, but he shares that information to increase followers and his profile. He’s not doing a public service.
Pot kettle black... Take it you have sent some random abuse to journo's for no reason then?That's partly his point though isn't it?
It's part of his job to report transfers.Yet journo's who do this are getting a lot of flak back for just passing on messages. Should the people who are literally trying to provide info for people, then get abuse for that?
Rather than just put up or shut up, I agree, call people out for their stupidity...
Nah, jeez, why would you believe that? I'm against any type of abuse as I have experienced it myself due to my nationality, especially when coming to the UK.
But I do enjoy my deep hatred for today's so called sports journalists. Deep down I think I envy them as they have basically the best job on the planet. You do nothing but spout shit in every article and get paid for it.
I know, but he’s sitting atop a high horse looking sympathy about how tough his job is. He’s using the same people he’s whining about to boost his profile. People being abusive online being dicks and Sam Lee being a self interested little cry baby aren’t mutually exclusive. Like I said, he’s not doing this to perform a public service. He needs the same people obsessed with transfers that he’s complaining about.
