In the latest edition of the United Hour Podcast, we interview Duncan Drasdo of MUST - covering ticket prices, new stadium, INEOS and what fans should be demanding from our club.
Also, due to technical issues we couldn't put a notice up for the previous episode which was about the game against Bournemouth and other stuff. If you'd like to listen to it, click here.

Been with us for several seasons too long. Almost everything wrong with the club in a nutshell.
Best of luck elsewhere.

Always seemed a very inoffensive lad, but clearly never good enough. The fact he's stayed so long is indicative of our mismanagement of players for a long time now. Hopefully those days are behind us.
As this is a performance thread I will say he played well today. Not a great defender but has always come across as a good human being and the latter is more important in the end. I hope he finds a team that is the right level for him and enjoys many more years of bashing purse snatchers. I must admit I will miss his wife more than I will miss him.
Golden blunder is having a party
When he’s really gone then I’ll relax
Good luck in the future Victor and thanks for always giving your all.
He's finally played his last game for us. I can't believe it.
I will not miss him, but I wish him luck at his next club.

Absolutely buzzed to never see him in a United shirt again. Seeing him never close a player down was infuriating every single bloody time.
Good summation and we have had so many of these types that have long outstayed their welcome. Hopefully Berrada is true to his word that after a year or 2 of underperforming its out the door
Time to go, but if he starts the final instead of Shaw I think we win. But we are stuck with Shaw I fear.
Was never good enough and a liability on too many occasions, but give him his due, he had plenty of excellent performances over his time here, but after those occasional good games, the next fixture would see him return to average to poor.
Should have been replaced sooner, but he apparently never complained and is supposed to be a decent guy.
Onwards…..

He brings organisation to the defense and while boring maybe, he isn’t dragged out of his position. That’s probably the main reason why United conceded less goals when he played, compared to when he didn’t play. And probably also the reason why he was picked to start by so many coaches.
Was only ever a squad player but with so many injuries he started more games than he should. Best of luck to him on the rest of his career.
I'm feeling emotional this morning 
Come on, he isn’t dragged out because he’s running backwards more often than not
Organisational
I didn't even realise his exit was imminent. Low-key one of the worst players of the post-Fergie era. A pointless defender who excels at nothing, while having a fragile, timid mentality. Seems like a nice bloke though I guess.
I am no fan of his, but it is the sad state of our club he is far from one of the worst.. remember Bailly, Falcao, VanDeBeek, Sanchez to name a few...
He’d do well in the SPL.
Yeah, that picture in his wife's dress sums him up...
Sad to see the way some of you lot speak about Lindelof. I thought he was a great servant; some obvious weaknesses but massively underrated especially in big games. Right for him to be going but I liked him and wish him all the best.
Being a good servant isn't enough for some these days. Football hasn't made them happy lately so the pitchforks are out for any and all easy targets of opportunity.
As for Lindelof, I'm astounded he's only just 30 and actually played 8 years at United.
Not good enough but seemed a good guy. Never complained, just did his part whenever asked, even if that wasnt good enough. Some of the younger kids could learn alot from his attitude.
Best of luck to Lindy. A very clever defender and had some huge games for us over the years.
I don't know, I felt he shirked responsibility a lot. He had a really good long pass on him but almost always elected for the safe back or side pass giving his partners the responsibility to progress the ball, never wanted to go in and tackle early, would rather mark the 'space' hoping someone else would deal with it. I even believe when he did actually attack corners, he was decent. I feel he's a talented footballer but his passive mindset held him back. Could be the pressure of playing for United and seeing all Maguire had to deal with made him shrink.
Most animated and passionate I've seen him of mouthing off to Bruno after messing up in one of our failed Europa League finals.
Getting quite the social media love in for some reason.
I’m astounded he had 8 years at this level
Even more staggering is that Shaw is entering his 12th year at United this season.
Disappointing
There's a Swedish interview somewhere where Zlatan said he recognized that Lindelöf was underperforming, and told him straight to his face that the club might sell him if he doesn't pick up the pace.
...That was almost a decade ago.

Remember being excited about him being "a ball playing defender" when we signed him.
Definition of a nothing player. Very weak physically, no leadership traits, always playing it safe.

Oh yes, I remember, I was quite excited. God, we're all gullible. Couple of youtube vids from Benfica days, and he's sold like a fresh bread.
Rojo & Blind had better technique, it's a bracket closer to Darmian, if anyone.
Remember that clip when he smashed a long distance free kick for Benfica? Thought he'd be a "baller" for us, turned to be as useful as a marzipan dildo .
Benfica clips were like old TV advertisements of lawnmowers with golden blades. His sliding technique looked so on point, then he came here and couldn't even push attacker off his balance.
That final vs Villareal should be final straw, and that was in 2021.
Bye Vicky!
All the best to Victor!
See ya Iceman. You definitely can't be my wingman anytime.
Jose traditionally knew what made a good CB. He signed off on Lindelof and Bailly - two appalling g defenders, who never had the right attributes to be successful at United. £30m a piece for them was big money at the time.
Awful signing.
Awful signing.
Bailly was decent at times but could be very rash. His main issue was being injury prone though. If he could keep fit he would have been a pretty good defender for us.
