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.

At the end of last season they were also dreaming of adding Shaw as they need a LB. He was the next world class LB, now he is just an overrated English player to them.Scousebags say we overpayed for Herrera and then go out and buy Lallana for 25m...
This week is just getting better and better! Can't wait for the RAWK updates...It's even better now that Moreno and Sevilla fecked them off.
Tackles and stuff
Created 4 less chance in 3 games, despite playing for a weaker team. Whose to say he would not of reached Fabregas figures if he had a strike force like Barca's ahead of him.
If they go on at this rate it will be a very crowded photo.
They thought Champions League football would make them more attractive than us. How cute.
Nah, Vidal is still in Brazil. He will walk through the doors with van Gaal.If they go on at this rate it will be a very crowded photo.
I like the stats for tackles and interceptions, now hoping teams won't just be allowed to walk through our midfield.
That's the key isnt it. They are just butthurt that they cant financially compete with us.
Has anyone said his english is better than Rooney's yet?
We bought a midfielder. I will tell my kids of this day
Carrick tweeting about his midfield partner!
Was close to saying that myselfEdited
I want to know one thing before I watch him for the first time. Is he two footed?
I think with the right midfield partner and some rest between games Carrick still has a couple of good years left in him.Oh Young.
Hinted at.
Tackles and stuff
Nice stats, although you have to be wary of reading too much into comparisons like that, because there's so much more to what a player's doing on the pitch than just the numbers. Fabregas plays for a better team so would be expected to have more impressive stats. But Herrera is much more of a key player in midfield than Fabregas, so might be expected to be more involved. All those sorts of considerations make stat comparisons difficult.
Still, taking Herrera's stats on their own, they've very impressive indeed. The kid sure can tackle!
Good point.
I think Fabregas is clearly the better player regardless, but since we couldn't get him Ander is a very good alternative.
Would Herrera be best utilized in a two man midfield or three man?
Surely our days of playing 2 man midfields are now over?
Tackles and stuff
nice stats there, although to be fair to cesc last season was probably his worst in a while.
ander's stats seems to be well balanced too. certainly he is capable of creating chances and not afraid to get stuck in.
He speaks good english
4-3-3, the most advanced one or a right-sided CM.
So chuffed for him, and greatful he gave us the time of day after we dicked him around last summer
Indeed. 4-4-2 is a thing of the past. You just get overran in midfield.

De Gea, Mata and Herrera were all part of the same Spain team at youth levels. Javi Martinez was in the same team and also played with Herrera for Bilbao. Just putting it out there....
I was sad that we did not get him last year, but better late than never.
surely won't be the most advanced one, as that's the position we already have a sh!Tload of players for, Mata, Rooney, Kagawa and even fellaini!

He's just asking for the "See them soon? So you're signing for Swansea, Sunderland or Burnley then?" comments...
Lovely - who's next Ed?!
If Liverpool is going to sign Lallana for 25mil pound, I don't actually feel Herrera was any expensive anymore. Herrera is younger and have much more potential.
They're only a year apart to be fair.
A midfielder? What sorcery is this?
Thought Herrera was 24 and Lallana 26?
