Ever see that episode of the Simpsons where the Carnies just move into the Simpsons' house like nothing has happened? I hope Gill does that to Woodward's office, and then laughs at him through the letterbox.
Ander Herrera is a Manchester United Player!

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.

If this article is even nearly true, I'd sign him up on principle.

Apparently our bid was 27m Euros + performance bonuses and we got told to come back with 36m.
Herrera according to this has asked his agent if a reduced salary deal would help United to buy him
Sounds promising...

Holy feck, that can't be true. I want him more than ever.
He was shit too
If we could get Levy on loan for the day we would probably have a new first 11
Should we just suck it up and pay the release clause? Is he worth it?
I think it would be pretty cheap of us to expect the player to contribute to the transfer, for the sake of a few million quid.

We regularly call ourselves the richest club in the world but we rarely act like it.

Even more annoyed by our attitude towards this transfer now.
Genuinely struggle to understand our transfer policy.
Just get him ffs. Cant believe we're being such stingy cnuts.
If we want him, then yes... it's only £6/7m then we originally bid. It's ridiculously cheap of us to not want him over that much money.
How so? We're in debt, we're cheap, so we low-ball everything. Anyone would think Woodward learned his business in a fecking souk.
Our uselessness continues to astound. Just pay up ffs.
If I am understanding this correctly, the player wants the move so bad that he is willing to take a pay cut. This one is happening boys.
Hell yeah .
FFS I'm about to have a meltdown here and I'm not even a muppet.
Get this lad signed up, Woody. FFS. Help our muppets.
Everyone spending money except us, even though we supposedly had unlimited funds.
I'm moslem, so stop making me feel like a Jewish kid on Christmas.

His wages were never going to be the problem. Our willingness to meet the release clause is.
If it's true that he wants to join us and would actually consider a lower pay deal.. we would be dumb not to sign him up.
I mean, the one central mid who actually wants to sign for us, after all these years .. and ..

He is the type we need.
Let's sign this guy. Get this over with.
Everyone join hands and visualise the transfer.
He's willing to cover some of the amount between Athletic's asking price and our bid from his wages. What is so hard to understand?
Well that means a lower total spend over the duration of his contract.. So hopefully that'll induce us meet the clause.
Many on the Caf were saying we did right in starting off low in the bidding for Cesc, but many were also saying it was a stupid bid. I thought £25m was completely taking the piss & that kind of bidding might have fecked the transfer up in the end.
£40m+ for Cesc wouldn't have been stupid sum to pay for him. There's not many players of his ilk around that would fit right in at United...
Eddy, this is not the time to squabbling over a few million euros, if he is highly rated then the "extra" we should get back if upon a successful season.
Or better yet, just round up 6,000,000 United fans and we each contribute a Euro.
feck wages, folks. This guy is so effective in defensive play that he may easily surpass both Carrick and Fellaini.
With him in the team, even Carrick could play offensive role and attack the space from time to time and probably would get loads of juicy assists from Herrera.
This is priority. This is what we need in the first place.

SIIIIIGN HIM
I'll lose all hope if we don't sign him over 6mil, especially if the bit about him lowering his wage demands is true. We're crying out for a midfielder or two and instead of just doing what it takes to get one we haggle over the price.
if Arsenal spending €50m on a player hasn't woken the club up and made them realize we're no longer in 2004 then nothing will.
Oh the fecking feck of feckers. Let's just get it done. He'll be my favourite player right away, just to show Woodward that it was the right call to come up with the money.
In a heartbeat. Though we should be able to sign both.
Ah shit...
Gosh he is even prepared to take a wage cut and we are still dithering, unless he is being used as a back up option to Fabregas.
Come on, please let us sign both.
Come the foook on Woody and give the muppets wood!
The guy's trying to push the deal through for us! Surely Woodward can't feck this up?
That's not a challenge, Edward, don't try to cock it up just to prove me wrong.
