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.

And if that fails maybe dig up Henry again.
RVP says he'd like Cesc to come but denies speaking to him.
Well feckin get on with it Robin!
Well feckin get on with it Robin!
Didn't they release the entire u18 squad last season as the two age groups below are so talented?
Hehe us not getting Fabregas is like getting 4th place...which is as good as a trophy
De Gea needs to teach Robin how tapping up is done.
Robin wanted to come to a team that might win something storey. It's that easy. You lot were shite.
Fixed for you.
Jaysus, Robin, we're paying you a million pounds a week and you can't even make a phone call.
We really aren'tJaysus, Robin, we're paying you a million pounds a week and you can't even make a phone call.
Pedant.
Please don't let that stop you from talking shit.
Wow i've never seen a joke taken so seriously.
You know during a game, when the boys stand up and say 'you're shit, and you know you are!' at someone like Chelsea, do you stop everyone and have a go at them because actually Chelsea are not shit?
Did Moyes reveal anything post-match?
He said
"I don't talk about players under contracts to other clubs. But seeing as you ask, we hope to sign him tomorrow"
...or not
For the record -
I know Robin Van Persie doesn't earn £1m per week. That would mean we were paying him £52m per year, almost half our total wage bill.
My posts were meant to be read in a jocular spirit.
He starts his own chant.
"You are incorrect, in fact Chelsea are a quality side comprised of many talented players and Fernando Torres."
Catchy.
Don't worry mate I'm still alive and kicking :-)
I still have high hopes we fix this deal, born optimist as I'm am.
He wants to play for Wenger so much that he left just 2 years ago.
And he's such a loyal chap that he walked out on local heroes as a teenager to play for you lot, and then was so loyal to you he walked out again when he remembered they were his local heroes.
He probably has 8years left to enjoy at his top level. Why on earth would be waste them at Arsenal?
Our bids seem a bit optimistic this summer, but yours are woefully embarrassing. Rooney, Suarez and Higuain? Less than no chance on all.
Per wearing No.2 in Japan, clearly freeing up Cesc's old No.4 shirt.
Fair enough. My bad.For the record -

Apologies
No you wouldn't. And he hardly got torn apart stop spewing exaggerated bullocks. Unfortunately there are a tribe of people on here who spend their considerable time rifling through posts in some sweaty little quest to discredit posters. I'm sure if anyone could actually be arsed there is plenty of contradictory shite that could be pulled from the vaults that incriminate these saaaaad little internet badgers.
Or they're going to utilise his explosive pace by starting him as RB.
Let's talk about Cesc, Storey.
Let's talk about RVP,
Let's talk about gooner legends, now Red Devils,
Oh yes please.
Let's talk about Cesc.
Really? I'd say Rooney is a silly one, never going to happen. But Suarez would have bitten Arsenal's hand off to go there and play CL football, and only Liverpool's refusal to let him go stopped that one happening. And Higuain isn't an unrealistic target either. It might not happen since there are some big names starting to come in for him, but I think it would be an appropriate move for both player and club.
United trying for Fabregas is comfortably more ridiculous than either of the latter two, given that both he and the club have emphatically stated that he's going nowhere.
It's only ridiculous if player isn't interested in the move though. I doubt Fabregas would come out and say even if he was interested. If we sign him, that's when it'll come out. Rooneys was extremely silly - almost insulting.
That he probably would've done, in fairness.
Don't get me wrong, I don't think Rooney's going anywhere. But if trying to sign Rooney, who still hasn't made any public statement saying he's staying, is silly, then trying to sign Fabregas, who only a month or so ago said this -
"I've always said that I'm happy at Barca. Whoever says that I'm leaving doesn't know me and has never spoken with me, said the 26-year-old. Nor with my agent, because he knows that I don't want him to talk with other people about me. I'm very private and I don't even talk about these things with my family. If someone says anything that isn't that I want to play at Barca, it's completely absurd"
- is doubly so.
They have a chance at Higuain but Suarez is well out of their price limit, no chance Arsenal are going to pay £35m-£40m on a player let alone one who's banned for the opening 6 games of the season.
That's fair, but he's not out of their price limit in terms of his actual value, just because Liverpool clearly aren't going to let him go except for a silly fee. It's fair enough to have a bid just to test that. The player himself would kill for a move like that.
Well I only think Chelseas offers silly because 20million is a joke. However I remember Ronaldo saying he was staying and then fecking off so who knows? Sometimes it's best to ignore what they say as they'd never admit to it before it happens anyway. It shouldn't shock anyone if Fabregas ends up at United. Remember Alan 'I'd never sign for United' Smith?
United would never persue a player if the player didn't encourage it. I don't believe they would anyway. When you're trying to negotiate large offer - you have to know if it's possible. I think we probably have had encouragement and if Barcelona do accept, he'll come out and say it was their decision and he just wants to play
It's certainly an unpredictable summer
Yes, it would seem so. Which is why I - perhaps foolishly - believe we know something here the media don't.
Fabregas is never going to speak out in public about leaving till he actually pens a deal elsewhere. He's a local lad who's never going to burn bridges till he has a new contract in hand. That doesnt mean he hasnt indicated to our team that he's willing to leave. I dont see any other reason why we'd have made a bid.
I'm no detective, but that quote looks rather fabricated.
Spot on, there's really no pleasing some people
