Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) discuss United's fantastic win away against Athletic Club in the semi-final of the Europa League.
They also pick out the positives of United's 4-3 loss away at Brentford, and Nik reviews a day out at Old Trafford watching Manchester United Women qualify for the Champions League.
Swear he used to be on our books? But we couldn't get a work permit or something.
Will we ‘be interested’ in this one for about 5 years too
Only seen him play a few times over last two seasons and all I really remember is his height, he's a giant.
Not another one
He's apparently having a great season and is not short. Bring him in.
he looks like a proper keeper
Every summer we're linked with a Milinkovic-Savic 
normally the other one though!
normally the other one though!I like the idea of having a 2 meter tall, bald Serbian with a beard in goal.
Looks like he’s ready to wrap that trophy round someone’s head!
Get him bought
Get him bought
Any relation to Sergio?
Also, he's giving me Barthez vibes 
I base this on his bald head, not the fact that i've ever seen him play, or even heard of him until today.

Good gk. Very tall, dominant on crosses and a penalties specialist. But Joan García is better (and also Bulka if you want a giant keeper, he plays for Nizza, so could be easy to buy him).
I was sure we're back in for Sergej Milinković Savić (had to check names) at first and wasn't surprised by the link
Me too it’s very reassuring compared to having a keeper who throws in his own net once in a while
Hopefully he’s good at keeping and shit too
I think Joan Garcia has outstanding shot stopping qualities. Feels like the best that's available on the market.
He looks like Joe Marler on a diet.
2.02m tall. It couldn’t be a bad thing for dealing with crosses
Can he come in before the final?
Probably makes it harder if anything. We had a deal blocked for Todibo last summer because of the multi-club ownership rules.
Presumably Milinkovic-Savic counts as homegrown for the quotas because of the time we had him before? Wouldn't be surprised if that factors into any interest we might hold
I remember to have created him in FIFA 15 or something to add him in the United squad.
Yes, super geek mode was activated back then.

No, he was only in Manchester for about 6 months
Does he, considering he failed to receive the work permit and never played a single game for us?
He spent literally no time here because he didn't get a work permit.
Remember the picture of him towering over Sir Alex at Carrington from 10+ years ago
Only 1 year left on his contract. He should be relatively cheap.
Looks like a mad bastard
Sign him up

and a 17m release clause.
Fair enough. I thought it might be a consideration with Heaton, Evans and presumably Rashford leaving this summer.
They mature early in Serbia.
I would assume he would be Bayindir's replacement but he's massive, if we don't get a new Number 1 then I could totally see him ousting Onana after another one of his episodes.
Wasn’t that because we were in the same competition at the time.
I’m not loving how often he’s parrying the ball into danger a la Onana
I feel like I read at the time, that even if we tried for Todibo the year later the answer would sort of still be no. Basically juice isn’t worth the squeeze to get any of those players under multi club rules
I'd prefer Joan Garcia but he would be a great option, too!
