Hmm, a firecracker. I approve.

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.
Silly foul, but what a gimp the other guy is. Getting kicked on the thigh with the laces of a boot does not justify falling over and rolling around like a bellend.
La Liga......GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLL culture
Right. Thanks.
Signing him in itself would be enough of a pleasant surprise.
Thanks damien for the title change.
Ah I know that, but the question was posed as to who would be better and Lahm certainly is the best.
I really don't understand why we can't get him on loan earlier last summer.
It's only a loan deal, even if there's some payment involved, surely the risk is minimal as compared to buying him. It's not likely he's injured or out of form, imo he can do more than a good job for us, and for a loan deal he's as good as you can get.

Because he was second choice after Baines.
Probably, but he's available on loan
We should sewn that up at least 1 week before the deadline once we know baines not going to happen.
You're going to like this...
...I knew about the red card, bu I'd overlooked the fact that Coentrao's first name is Fabio (without which the title makes little sense).
Would his domestic ban transfer over to England if we were to sign him? Or would he just remain forever banned in Spain?
He's remain banned in Spain, I believe.
So, if he signs for us, and we end up playing a CL team in spain, it'll apply then?
He will be banned here as well. FIFA federations generally respect bans in another nation where possible.

Why would that happen? When has a domestic ban ever affected a European match?
Good point, wasn't thinking straight. And anyway, the article above says domestic bans can be transferred.
The commentators said that the ban applied only in the Copa del Rey; the Spanish don't seem to group all domestic competitions into one like we do in England. Not that it makes that much difference in this case as Marcelo is first choice in the league anyway it seems.
Sign him....
Him or Shaw and I'd be happy.
Id prefer shaw myself but there maybe an all out bidding war for him when the time comes.
Just sign him already.
So with the red card he had with Madrid yesterday, does that mean he'll miss the Chelsea game? Do suspensions carry through to a different league. Even if it does, because it was a Spanish Cup game, surely he'd miss the next FA Cup game (next season)?
100% prefer Shaw, he's exactly the type of player United should be signing. Young, English and a very good player. We'll live to regret it but there we go. Opens the floor for Chelsea to snap him up. Sigh.
Coentrao I have no doubt will be good at United, just think Shaw is the far better bet. Let's see how much he's signed for...
Have we signed him yet?

Don't bans in the large majority of European leagues work domestically? So a player who gets a red in a FA Cup, COC or PL game will simply miss the following domestic game.
if that rule applies overseas, then hypothetically if Coentrao joined us before Sunday, he would just miss the Chelsea game and it wouldn't carry over to the FA Cup next year.
Real Madrid have signed Moreno, so this could happen now.
Maybe I'm being ungrateful but it still feels a bit shit that our most likely signing this window is a left back.
Madrid have signed Coentrao's replacement tonight. We won't sign Coentrao until the late hours of January.
They've paid €21 mill too. If Coentrao was unhappy before then he'll be desperate to leave now.
I think it's a decent signing, mate. Left back was a huge concern for us. Nobody who can noticeably improve us in the midfield seems to be available/willing to join us. Hopefully we'll be proved wrong.
They've no need to keep him now surely? Is Moreno definitely an immediate signing or will he come in the summer?
Is this confirmed?
Is Moreno going in the summer or now?
From any of the reports I've seen its a done deal with a player who is already on load at Seville part of the deal. Coentrao ON
Sevilla have their own radio station, and as I understand it, the news broke from there.
Oh just sign him now so everyone on the caf can have something good to talk about!!!

Moyes is shit
Woody is shit
RVP wants out
Rooney wants out

Is the Moreno deal confirmed? I think that tweet was from Seville radio speculation.
You make it sound like all that is required is for United to decide they want him.
Ever considered the possibility he might want to go to Chelsea?
