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.
Oh it's 69 and 51. I read it as 61 and 59 for some reason. Well, the titles done then!
Fantastic achievement for when they officially confirm it.
Also goes to show the effect Zlatan had for PSG.

Well done Monaco! Happy for you.
Monaco so close to the title 
Haha "Unofficial champions"
Is Emery going to get the sack?
Not sure even Zlatan would have managed to do much to stop Monaco. Cavani has scored 48 goals this season apparently..
So PSG have replaced Zlatan's goals but not Cavani's?
Congrats to Monaco, a great achievement secured with one the most entertaining sides in Europe. Well deserved.
Congratulations to the current best portuguese coach at the moment, the Real Special One Leonardo Jardim.
Zlatan scored 38, Cavani has 33, but the big difference is that Zlatan also provided 13 assists compared to 3 for Cavani. The goals have been replaced, but not the creativity.
You can add his leadership skills
As a PSG fan and the creator of this thread, I have to say Monaco fully deserve to be champions.
PSG has made an odd season.
PSG has made an odd season.
Do you think Emery can stay?
I'd say it would depend on the coaches available on the market.
PSG has always tried to recuit Simeone.
I read today they want Jardim
Also the president of PSG sacked Blanc 2-3 weeks after he publicly said the coach would would stay
I read today they want Jardim
If they want it I don't know, but he probably wouldn't accept.

He seems to be a grateful and loyal guy, so yeah I don't think he would move this summer for PSG.
PSG can't ignore his CV
If he accepted it would be 2 in 1, the club I like more in France, and the real chance to fight for the Champions League, I only wanted Monaco to win this year because he never won an major title and because PSG won so many in a row and will keep winning in the future.
He should accept it, but the day he leaves Monaco he will go to another country, he probably doesn't want to have an bad relation with Monaco.
Excellent....
I'm so pleased that Al-Psg, like Abu Dhabi Athletic ( and, sadly, like ourselves, I suppose ) have shown that money isn't everything.
Most of all, I'm really, really pleased for Falcao....His time with us was a nightmare only because he wasn't fit, not because he didn't have the talent.

Domination of the awards by Monaco fully deserved.
John Bostock plays in France now?
He is doing well to even still be playing Football. It looked like he was going to wash out completely a few years ago.
1 point today and Monaco have officially won the league
Monaco XI: 1-Subasic 25-Glik 5-Jemerson 19-Sidibé 23-Mendy 2-Fabinho 8-Moutinho 27-Lemar 10-Silva 29-Mbappé 9-Falcao
Florentin with a classic Pogba haircut.
Yesss. Goal Monaco.
Mbappe! 1-0 Monaco! Another golazo!
who notched?
Good finish. Guy is quick1
OMG the guy is CLASS
Have to sign Mendy this summer. Guy is quality LB. Hell of a cross on him. Would be a massive upgrade on Shaw, Blind, Darmian
Monaco leading at HT.
Mbappe is incredible, oh my god, really we're being spoiled with Messi and Ronaldo, but Neymar and now this guy? Jesus christ.
It seems the most logical. Having one guy bag 35 league goals and another 18 is a big deal
The way I see it is the more of these French guys we sign the better. We can be the new Arsenal with our French contingent. It will make for fireworks
