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.

Well, it's not just shielding, it's being able to hold your own under pressure and retain the ball. More agile players manage it by being quick and wriggling free, where as Barry holds it due to his strength. Ball retention is a very good reason to sign a midfielder, but as I say, he's alot more sluggish than he used to be, which lets him down.
City fans rate him highly still though. For a team studded with stars and with a bank balance allowing them to buy anyone in the world, that's not a bad accolade.
If Cesc Fabregas signs for Manchester United this summer I'll eat my own shit. And you can quote me on that.
Photographic evidence will be required and we won't care who once owned the shit.
I swear the BBC are being dicks to us. Here are two images of Fabregas they have chosen during this saga:
They're calling us Losers.

Done
OH BOY! OH BOY! OH BOY!, as Donald Duck would say.
Recent developments seem to be that Fabregas is reconsidering his future at Barca.

spoiler that shit
feck off posting that in here, especially without a spoiler, some of us are at work for feck sake.
Literally Richard.
You might be advised to stop swearing then.
How can regular visitors to this thread complain about seeing a little more shit?
My boss doesn't have good enough eyesight to read this text, but a massive picture of a turd is perfectly visible from distance.
What the feck?!Get back to work you scrounger.
Well you're hardly in a position to moralise... people are paying you good money to do an honest days work, and all you can do is post on Redcafe? Scandalous.
Gosh how totally......expected.
What, lunchtime? No problem then, I'll put the turd back!
Kaveh has spoken.
This isn't 1983. You don't need to leave your place of work to go to a giant computer housing warehouse to use a PC
I'm erect. Tell me more.
Sky sources believe Fabregas is now considering his future as he hasn't been given any assurances from Barcelona on playing time.
And they report Barcelona will consider £35m but leave the decision ultimately up to the player.
So they're basically saying - 'They made us an offer and we'll accept it, if You want to go.'
I'm becoming more confident as time passes. Thought we had no hope to start with but just starting to believe that it MIGHT happen. It's got a bit of an RVP feel to it, for me.
Looks like it's a bit of a battle between who gets to be the 'baddie'.
The player likely wants the club to first accept the offer, the club likely first want him to ask to leave.
I think we're in Fergie time on this now.
Me too.
This is a bad sign... I thought Thiago and Sneijder were in the bag, and never thought we had a chance with RVP.
We'll prefer a pic and video thanks.
Our next bid should be €40,780,000 I think.
I presume failure to go through with this would mean an automatic ban?
I'm just so confused by all of this. It's a really weird saga and unlike any I can remember. I still get the feeling we're going to get this done because nothing else makes any sense. Whatever happens I'll maintain that Barca have been cnuts.
How I feel too, the RVP feel is spot on imo.
