You lots already have 2 of the best young DM/B2B in the world, it’s about time to let Casemiro go and let him pursue his final big contract move elsewhere. With Tchouameni and Cama standing by, you are not going to play him all the time until he reaches 34-35 anyway.

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.

Why do people keep saying this ?… Alaba did ok as an occasional DM playing for Bayern in a third rate league. At that time he was playing for Pep with a peak Robben and Ribery. It was so easy that under Pep Bayern played formations like 2-3-5 and 3-3-4 regularly in his 3 years there.
flight tracking/airport scouting today?
So, is this guy any good?
Why is Real selling a 30yr old Casemiro and not a 32yr old Kroos???
This is bullshit … Fred‘s job is to act as an extra body in attack and defence … basically to make himself a nuisance at either end … The creative job is left to Paqueta. At United you should use Eriksen in Paqueta’s role.
What club would be stupid enough to pay huge money for a 32yo midfielder?
It’s all about signing the perfect partner for Casemiro now. It doesn’t have to be a world beater but the right guy.
We desperately need the “glue” guy to play that #8. A player who excels at short passes and movement that allows him to always be available for a pass. Players such as Vitinha who recently went to PSG would have been ideal for that role.
Tielemans would probably be the most affordable but least inspiring choice. Koke would be the most intriguing but way too expensive for us.
Other players potentially include;
- Tonali
- Caquaret

This is the most embarrassed and hurt I have felt as a United fan. We are every fecking asshole's joke. Total circus. I hate Glazers and their brainless minions pretending to be football executives. Darren Fletcher should be ashamed that he is part of this disaster. Glazer squad doesn't care but Fletcher is supposed to be a true red and he is associated with complete trashing of this great club
He'll be great for my Bet Builders. Always good for a yellow card, along with Carvajal.
Do you think whether it is real or not changes anything? We are the butt of everybody's cheap jokes. It is just reflective of our current disastrous state.
P.S. I have absolutely nothing against Casemiro, if he signs for us. Hopefully improves our midfield, but spending 3.5 months talking about De Jong, then losing 2 horrible games to nothing clubs, and now Casemiro becoming the signing of the transfer season... I don't know how I don't get a heart attack watching this disaster
If he joins I am afraid his will be a Schweinsteiger all over again.
So you don't care if anything is real or fake you just want to moan and indulge in negativity, christ.
That's enough Internet for you buddy. We've lost the opening two games disgracefully and you're more upset about Twitter memes. It will seriously do wonders for your mental health to go offline a while. Come back refreshed
How? Casemiro is not in the steep physical decline that Basti was, nor has the injury record. Not only that, he's not going to half-arse it either like Basti did. All reports hint he relishes a challenge here.
Nope. I am upset because it actually reflects exactly where we are. Where it was posted and real or a joke - doesn't matter
You're over indulging in negativity and are coming across as embarrassing yourself. Ted has a point, turn the phone/pc off.
I've been skeptical of this deal but the best part is that this will free up the likes of Fred and Erisken. Especially the former who not longer has to keep pretending to be a holding midfielder.
Like I said, you're a victim of social media which doesn't reflect reality. Please take a break from the internet. I'm worried about your mental state.
United get bantered all the time. Paddy Power have been having their fun for years. Nothing new to see here. Move on.
Haha. Yeah we bought Schweinsteiger back in 2014 or 15 thinking that he is in steep decline? We bought him because we thought he still wants to play and has something to offer, the same reason we are after Casemiro.
We are in desperate need to find some young talent and build upon. We brought Ibrahimovic, Cavani, Ronaldo - all World class in their day - but how do you build anything around that? Where continuity will come from? Casemiro is declining clearly. He is not the guy he was 5 years ago. His 2021–22 season was visibly worse than any of previous 4-5 prior to that.
Because we've been made ourselves worthy of it.
We have signed world class players before and all of them flopped. Heck, all our signings in the past 10 years flopped, let's stop signing anyone!
All youth players promoted from our academy is also doing badly at the moment, let's not promote any more youngsters!
Let's play with Redcafe XI because this group have not failed yet.
I swear to God some of you here are dumb as rocks. Actually that is insulting to rocks.

Arsenal and Chelsea fans have more brains and footballing knowledge than a large chuck of our own self deprecating, miserable fan base.
Hilarious
We're being taken to the cleaner by Madrid again after Varane. They knew something we dont. My bet is Casemiro already have retirement in his mind and we're his last big big paycheck.
But on the otherhand, I also realize we dont have much choice with the condition we're in

My bet is you’re talking shit
Retirement in mind when he has turned 30?
whilst signing a 4 year contract
Everyone and his dog knows this, you're not that special.
United, unfortunately, is in a position where we will have to choose our poison and pray it is less painful than the others.
They will sell us Kroos next year
Bruno/Eriksen would be our Kroos/Modric. Make that of what you will.
