Ander Herrera is a Manchester United Player!
- Thread starter pocco
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!

This is what happens when you leave shit until the last day. We should've paid his release clause a few days ago and sorted everything out by now. Instead we may miss out on him, although I'm still hopeful something will be done.
Even if we manage to sign Herrera and Fellaini, I agree with Jamie Redknapp when he said we've been amateurish the way we've gone about business this summer. It's been a shambles so far.

why can we never do anything the easy way FFS, I will be pissed if this fall though.
But, but guys he must sign! I saw a top comment on youtube saying "Welcome To Manchester United!" 
I can't believe people jump on this so willingly.
If Athletic don't agree to a club to club deal, then basically yes.
This place is embarrassing.
I'm heading in that direction rapidly mate.
I don't usually go in for the Jim Henson stuff but Herrera was a player I've actually wanted to join United since they booted us out of the Europa league. That game left me keen on him and Martinez. If we'd have signed both of them...
...not even to get one of them. Poor summer.
Phase 1: denial.
Nah man, just confidence. Lets face it Fellaini is in the bag. Herrera will take a while but if we're meeting the release clause and the player wants to come it'll be sorted too.
I wonder who else we'll sign?
That he is, but he's right. Leaving things until the very last minute isn't the correct way to go about business. The midfield signings should have been sorted weeks ago, particularly since both players we're after have/had release clauses and we'll most likely be paying fees equal/greater to those clauses.
Ronaldo.
It has been tested, Bayern Munich tested it last year in the Martinez transfer. It took them weeks of visits to lawyers, the tax office and the league to do it though.
If we haven't done the groundwork, then we can't do it. If we have done the groundwork then we just show up with the player, his new contract and the cash and hand the money over.
What do you expect, everyone to be calm and patient because we have had such a successful summer? Top Red attitude here, of course people will be anxious and complain about how we are dealing with this.
I love a good meltdown
A lot of waffle on Sky but no real meat. Not sure why everyone's so excited. Basically the "breaking news" for the last 4 hours is simply that we are "willing" to meet the clause and that came from Balague. There hasn't been a bid or any word from either club.
I just don't see this happening. Still think we'll get Fellaini but that will be it.

Feck off with your condescension, yea? I bet you're one of the lads who would love to see Jones and Giggs in midfield, and watch us lose, just because of people's reactions to it. Bet you're fecking stoked with Woody and the crew too?
ESPN said united have said it's on.
Nope, he is on the wind up and it seems he has a victim.
I can't believe these feckwits would now be finding out what we've all known all along re: release clauses in Spain. It was relevant to the Thiago transfer as well...
Bullshit... or extreme incompetence. Choose your side.

I've been on a couple of Athletic forums. They're joking about the guest traffic numbers they've got today, but basically they know as much as we do.
There are some Bilbao based press saying the deal has been done, but I'm not familiar enough with the papers/reporters to know if any of them have a clue.

We could have just gone through all this shit last summer for the Basque midfielder we actually needed...
J-cube is the best poster on the site.
I just think we are waiting to finalize both deals so we can announce them to the press together.
Why was Ballague talking about Herrara being 'one of the regulars for the U21s' when he is 24?
So far we only have Guillem Ballbag's word that this is happening. So not too positive.
What happened now is it off?
He cant be any good, his card in FIFA isnt even shiny gold...............
And Andy Mitten and ESPN and AS and El Correo.
When he was, they won some championship.
Carricks isn't either. So by that, he's as good as Carrick.
Ballague 'Herrera worth 36m euros? No, he will tell you that himself. Is he worth that in two years? Yes, for sure. He'd be one of the top 5 midfielders in the premier league by then'
Interesting.
Interesting.
We are running out of time, it's not going to happen is it.
