My condolences. You're basically useless at life now.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss Amad saving our blushes in a win against Southampton as well as our now annual loss at home to Brighton. They discuss Amorim's post-match comments, revisit how mid-table we may or may not be, and discuss some transfer news.

That's a good point to be fair. We have obviously watched the portugese league alot and no everything about their talents. Definitely not a panic buy.
My question also. How does everyone else know who we're in for but won't say?who's the third name on the list? Just so I know how to react to the Telles news
Sancho’s the key, only him signing can save this joke of a transfer window for us.
I seriously doubt its Sancho now mate. If we were struggling for cash for the Sancho deal I don't know why we'd spend 35m on VDB and 18m on Telles. That's not exactly going to help the budget is it?
I reckon it's going to be Sarr. Liverpool moving on to Jota today makes me think it will be him.
What did I just read. Shaw is banker to get injured. Its inevitable. And you think William's will start over Telles? Williams will get nowhere near the team as he is not a LB. He is mediocre at best. Telles has more goals and assists from LB last season than Shaw has had in his whole playing career.
These are the easiest stories to write because everybody knows United pay more wages to players than anybody else so the personal terms are NEVER an issue.
It’s painful.
I mean, the quoted €20m shouldn't be an issue right? It's one Chris Smalling.
We aren’t going to sign Sarr only to go back in for Sancho next year. He’s been the number one target for over a year. If Sancho doesn’t come it’ll be a short term move only.
If we signed a young full back, I would think they would be signed as a backup for Shaw, but if we sign someone like Telles its giving me the impression we might see Shaw tried more and more as a LCB
Have a feeling agents are telling porkies.
fecking hell the way some clowns in here were talking about him I assumed he was mid to late 30's.
He's only 27 for feck sake!

I’m 37 and I’m still awesome at football....
He’ll let us know when another journalist breaks the story.
We will go in for Sancho in the last week, wait for Sep 30.
A whole YEAR older than Bruno.
Who says we will be going back in for Sancho next year? He will have 2 yrs left still next summer so will still command a fee over 100m.
It might be dead in the water mate. Glazers may have vetoed it.
Can you play right wing?
It's ridiculous
I genuinely assumed he was proper old the way people were talking about him a few pages back.
64 assists and almost 30 goals in his pro career. For that quoted price ? No brainer, then Ole can rotate him with Shaw, risk of uncalled injuries can be easily minimised.
Could be 2nd value for money signing after Donny Kong.

I question your comprehension on reality if you really think a player we’ve chased for over a year and is one of the best talents in world football is going to be replaced with Sarr from Watford in the clubs plan.
Are PSG not talking to him too?
Why? It's not my plan. I want Sancho.
I question your logic in doubting it. This is Ed Woodward and the Glazers for you mate.
If Ole says I want Sancho and the Glazers say 'no you're not having him he's too expensive'.
What do we do? Sign nobody and kid ourselves next summer will be different?
Monitor FC.
They're the same ones that are ripping their hair out over Liverpool signing a 29 year old Thiago.
Vitaliy Mykolenko.
It's probably 4+1 year. European journalists always seem to include the +1 option as standard.
Thought he was a Portuguese
Who again?
You know how we apparently keep reaching agreements with players before we start negotiations with the club for a fee?
Isn't that... Tapping up?
Isn't that... Tapping up?
Guessing this means were signing Fodé Ballo-Touré or Rayan Ait-Nouri tomorrow then.
Where has this all come from?
Reguilon is better
Preparing FC has become Monitoring FC it seems.
Yes. It's also what every club in the world does.
As long as the owning club grant permission its fine, Telles is being sold no matter what, so it just speeds things up.
27 years old or not, most players are there for 3 or 4 years anyway. Also, he is at his prime.
I was wondering that the only reason we went for Sergio Reguilon over Alex Tellas because he is younger; Alex is clearly the better crosser of the ball, and that is something we are lacking considerably.
Missing out on Sergio is a blessing in disguise and I feel man utd know this as they didn't fight for the death to get Sergio.
