In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.

The amount of people saying 130m is "reasonable" seems amazing.
How many players have gone for over 100m? Is it more than two or three?
And you think madrid will pay it for a guy who only wants to go to them and has a year left?
No chance. It's posturing from chelsea.

I think so. Contract length hamstrings Chelsea and Madrid know that. Be surprised if he want for more than £80m, even £65m.
They are like an elite version of us. Their problems are all similar - lack of firepower up front, aging midfield and backline being shaky. They also have unwanted players on huge wages. Only difference is that their unwanted players like Bale are still a class better than ours like Sanchez.
Never mind his age.
I do wonder if Prem clubs will bow their necks this summer though. I can’t see Spurs being easy to deal with re Eriksen either. And the Spanish giants are on the wane financially.
I think they have a bigger rebuild tbh. They have to replace almost their entire champions league winning squad. The biggest mistake that they made was to not speed that process up by offloading more players last summer when they had the chance.
Gone.
Hope Chelsea rob Real Madrid off this one.
@tenpoless Seriously? Not only do we have much better relationships with Real Madrid (let's not forget they helped us after the munich air disaster) but they're also not even close to a rival in any shape or form as of right now.
On the other hand Chelsea is and you surely don't want them to get a 150M+ fee for Hazard do you?

Thought the interviewer handled that quite well.
Hazard thinks it’s goodbye and expects to know it’s done in the next couple of days.

As much as everyone already knew, I'd be annoyed if our best player did that right after winning a cup final. He'd have known 100% the question was coming, he should've had an answer ready.

Kind of what happened with LVG to be fair but the other way around
Huge blow.
Think the lack of a CL is the only thing that stops him going down as Chelsea’s best ever. Top 3 easy.
Hope Chelsea fleece the wankers.
Finally he is gone. As much as i loved him, he was always turning it up against us. Now i can enjoy him more
He suits being a Madrid player.
So they can re invest eventually? feck that. They’ve always got good fee’s for their deadwood. Hopefully they lose their best player under 100m
The deal is practically signed and the fee agreed when he says such thing just after the final.
Brilliant player, the one people will gladly pay a ticket just to see him play. And finally can enjoy him in another club.

Yeah guess so, they can't replace him though.
He has to be the most overrated player I've seen in the prem.
This isn’t the Ozil thread.
Wish interviewers like that would feck off. It's not your fecking scoop mate. The guy has just won a major final and you're forcing him to tell his fans he's leaving when he clearly doesn't want to.
Most talented premier league player since Ronaldo left IMO, such a shame we didnt manage to bring him here in 2012. Been hamstrung by play style at Chelsea for years and even still has had a very successful period there. Chelsea's going to drop real hard without him next season.
If Hazard had more than a year left on his contract, his price would be pretty much world record range. After Ronaldo, he's the 'best' footballer that is going to transfer between clubs in the past decade IMO.
In terms of 100m+ footballers, transfermarket in euros says:
- Neymar - €222m
- Coutinho - €145m
- Mbappe - €135m
- Dembele - €125m
- Ronaldo - €117m
- Pogba - €105m
- Bale - €101m
Can we try to get him in any way? Probably not worth the try because I don't think he wants to join us and Chelsea would probably rather sell him to Madrid.
Cant believe the way the reporter cornered him there to try to get a story out of him. feckin leeches!
You just answered it yourself.
Class player and always enjoy watching him, when he's on a roll he is up there with the best in the world without a doubt!
The one thing about Hazard is that he’s loyal. It’s why he was never interested in PSG (Lille) and I do not think he’ll ever play for any other PL club.
Depending on how his Madrid stint goes he might be back Chelsea, Lille or who knows maybe a Belgian club, but can’t see him at any other French Club or English club.
You ever watched the geezer play football???
It’s a shame he’s leaving the Premier League, been a pleasure to watch from a neutral perspective.
Always prefer for the best players to be in the Premier League (as long as they’re not at Liverpool - was more than happy to see Suarez leave).
Hes going to flop hard at Madrid.
Even if he won the Champions League with them, I'd have to say those first Mourinho years are hard to top. That group of players really took Chelsea to another level which is why they are competing now. Plus, it had a core of youth players.
Definitely Terry and Lampard up top, then Hazard and maybe Zola in the mix
Go lie down pet.
