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.

That went well....
We'll see.
If we really want Fabregas (and I hope that we do,) then we should just make Barca an offer that they would find very hard to refuse. 26 million for a player of is talent, who is still in his prime, always struck me as too low. Throw a 35 million take it/leave it at them, and then see what happens (or offer them Rooney in exchange.)
Probably, though I think there's a difference in Barca's board saying it than Arsenal or spurs, as the latter two are generally selling clubs. His quotes are pretty definitive, plus it's unlikely Fab will push for a move. Hopefully Woodward has some master plan up his sleeve
Every time I see that man's name written down, I think of the Berbatov kidnap classic.
They just sent The Equalizer man... they sent him to negotiate.... negotiate their surrender... and bring home any POW's..
Time to send The Equalizer in once again!
So the cnut flew back for nothing? Sack him.
don't be so rude you fecking twat.
To the Xavi/Iniesta/Busquets thread!
MUST SIGN BARCA PLAYER.

It's all I know sometimes in this cold cruel world.
So with the weekend coming up, I'm guessing we won't know anything for atleast another few days.
We always know feck all 
If you use your brain, it's not hard to figure out where that first headline has come from. Moyes never said that, ignore it.
The 26m offer was just to throw it into the public arena and to up the ante. Possibly to show willing to Fabregas' camp. If we can't lever Barca's doors open for a kidnap job, Fabregas, as it stands, can claim he never wanted to leave.
It is all the same old predictable shite.
He'll probably have photo's of Rosell bumming Pique or something... the usual!
ugh, feck that, too much effort.
FFS Wayne Rooney is not for sale now and wasn't from Everton. Ronaldo wasn't for sale, Modric wasn't for sale, Bale is not for sale, Saurez is not for sale...
The fact is if you make a bid big enough it will happen. Whether Fabregas is considering the move now is another.

This one was always a smokescreen. Now, who is the real target?
Moyes should have picked up the phone.
I always think: "how can i make it look like an accident..."
I'm bored...the sooner the the first game of the season rolls around the better.
Fergie said we are not in for David de Gea in April. Circa June: United buys David de Gea from Atletico.
Aye, I get that. But with edd supposedly flying back to negotiate this deal and then the barca board coming out with that statement the day after, sort of says that negotiations have been an epic fail of monumental proportions.
Time for agent SAF...
ITs Osman
I will end you Randall.
Pretty poor examples as none of these have actually happened (yet). Modric wasn't for sale at any price to a domestic rival, Levy was never selling him to Chelsea.
Scholes?
Aye it could be...on the other hand who knows what is going on. I recall Ferguson saying he wouldn't sell madrid a virus...people say things.
I don't think any of us ever know what is really going on.
I hate you all

But that's got nothing to do with the vice-president of one of the biggest clubs in the world saying one of their star midfielders is "not transferable".
ITs Osman
...“Oh, oh, oh, it’s Osman, you know, it’s hard to believe it’s not Fabregas...”
How the fudge would one post a tweet?
Yeah he was...
Howard Nurse still thinks its on
