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.

he's a fecking superstar
Definitely man of the match tonight. Fabregas would have been proud of that debut
Impossible not to get excited, what a feckin player.
What a player, he played atleast a dozen through balls of absolute quality there. Best debut ever!
Thoroughly impressive.
Unbelievable. What a star.
What in god's name did I just watch? A proper midfield performance? Out of this world by Herrera.
What. A. Player.
What. A. Player.
Born is the king
Heard Iniesta is studying his match already.
Love.
He's going to have an amazing season. I just know it.
Can pass the ball forward
He's gonna tear the PL teams apart.
Great first game and even though it's just a friendly this looked really promising. Looking forward to him and Mata tearing up to opposition defenses with their passing skills.
Set to be fans favourite just like Mata within next months. Wanted to come here, runs a fecking lot and then those killer passes, fantastic guy.
Him and Mata linking up was fun.
Not sure how a Vidal-Herrera midfield partnership would work but I'd definitely enjoy finding out...

Carrick isnt mobile enough for me.
He's pretty much what I hoped Cleverley could turn into. Except better and Spanish.
Welcome to the Ander-show.
Made more through balls in the last few minutes than our whole midfield combined last season.
Would probably make for the best match compilation, ever.
What a great first 'unofficial' game!
Very very encouraging start (I am very excited to say the least) but it is still early days, guys. He was sweep all the pre-season MOTM awards but we'll only see how good he in the first few games in the league.

Had acres to play in but used the space well and is pure class on the ball, very exciting debut for sure.
Absolutely ran the show. He definitely needs a high energy partner in the middle. Deservedly man of the match. Some of his play was absolutely world class.
Fair enough, but I don't think Herrera really needs a mobile partner, especially with a number 10 in front of them. Scholes - Carrick worked pretty well, and I wouldn't say either were mobile...
The sad thing is that I think thats really true.
This is one of those days that you just know. It doesn't matter who opposition is. His first touch is just class. I don't think the opposition will make a difference to that. The through balls might be more difficult against harder teams. I'm about this close to claiming that he can replace scholsey
Please stay injury-free.
Shockingly effective performance in his first match.
What a game he had absolutely bossed the midfield.
unbelievably good tonight, easily MOTM, passing was super, movement as well, looks like a natural United player already, so excited to see him play against the bigger teams now!
It really is what United could be capable of doing all these years with a proper midfielder capable of playmaking.
Sure as hell looked like Scholes MK II out there.
It is beyond belief that United backed out of a deal to sign Herrera last summer. WTF were we thinking?
If we would have got him then we would have done slightly better and Moyes would still be here. Be happy it took a year...
Ridiculously good passing and awareness from him. It's only preseason, but what a performance.
I wonder how different last season would have been with Herrera instead of Fellaini.
Every cloud I suppose...Don't. I've done this to myself repeatedly. Its better just to think Moyes would've benched him for not getting it wide early and often enough. Let's leave last season firmly in the past
