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.

Ok so all these years of football was just a practice for the last couple of weeks of football.
Fair enough. Arsenal are surely better than us and more successful.
Congrats, Arsenal wins "The better than Manchester United recently award". Your first trophy in what 7 years?
How does it rank vs a 4-0 loss in the CL and a 2-0 at Stadium of Light?
Yes but he is inconsistant and showboats too much. Valencia is more effective.
Arsenal fan talking about trophies.Munian, Herrera and Martinez. Three quality players, anyone think that we will even try to sign any of them? SAF does look more favourably on players that take the piss when playing against us. Dwight Yorke and Louis Saha spring to mind.
Christ, Gillespie is such a fecking moron.
This Bart Simpson fella is very good though. Terrific wee player.

Gillespie must live a sad and horrible life. Coming only on the Caf after defeats, what a spineless cnut.

Know about Munian for ages. He will be a fantastic player. About him starting for the team when younger and comparing him to United - surely that's not fair to say? Bilbao choose to play Basque/youth team players - if a good young player is coming up, he's going to get a look in sooner than at any other club.
I didn't see the match, what were the opinions of Ander Herrera and Susaeta? I assume Martinez and Llorente had a good game, going on the reviews on here. I don't even rate Llorente that much, he's just a Spanish version of Grant Holt/Andy Carrol.

Herrera was the MoTM for me, what a great little player. Susaeta was very good although didn't notice him much in the second half. Llorente is actually a very good footballer mate, you're doing a disservice calling him Carrol.
So is Fergie going to come out tomorrow and admit our interest in Munain, Herrera and Martinez?
If by the Spanish version you mean has plenty of intelligence and a very nice touch then yes, yes he is. That makes quite a decent forward.
Munain has impressed me for a long time, but the performance he put in today was as good as any you'll see from a young player. Class act, Bilbao are reaping the benefits of having a youth system which they have put their trust and faith in. It's paying dividends..massively. Can't see him for the next few seasons, I see Madrid are keeping tabs on him. He doesn't need that move now, he needs to be playing regularly.
Always liked this kid, wouldn't mind him here at all.
Cheers. I'd been hearing decent things about Herrera and Susaeta, alongside brilliant things about Munian, Martinez etc. Just wanted some feedback!
No need to get a bit narky. Llorente is a powerful player, like Carrol and Holt. Just because he can control a ball doesn't take much away from the fact that the main component of his game is his physicality. I just personally think that he's a bit one dimensional, but just good at what he does. Nothing worse than that.
Also the fact that Bilbao can't really afford not to play talented kids plays a part. IF anything they have more of a danger of over exposing the talent the have due to the nature of the basque only policy.
Scholes wasn't in his teens when he broke through and became a regular in the squad.
United have had a younger team on the pitch than Arsenal this season and most of our lot are British
Well, it's a pretty dumb comparison, Llorente is far from being just a lump who plays up front like the other two.
So his main weapon isn't his size and strength? Don't be so moronic.
It might well be, but you're pigeon holing his abilities, as the others have said he is more than just a big lump up top - he can play football too making him a very decent forward.
What. A. Player.
That is all.
That is all.
Phil Jones has just come into the side this season, is predominantly a CB, and has been getting lots of midfield time for United. Don't really know where you're coming from there.
Ferguson knows when a youngster is ready more than anyone else.
He's better than I first realised. Played a big part in dominating us out there and he didn't look fazed at all.
My Muniain thread was ignored. 
He was impressive in the Euro U21's last summer and looks even more rounded now, certainly one to watch.
Herrera, Munain, and Javi Martinez were all in the Spanish U21 team. They are all quality players.
Munain is the new Wellbeck.
Use de Gea to persuade him to sign for us
Fantastic player and still only 19. He has the potential to be another Silva type, possibly even better.
He was brilliant. Quick, technically superb, great shot on him and has the allround game. And I'm getting that from one game.
Potentially he is even better than Silva. All the big clubs will be after him, so United unfortunately have no chance.
What a fantastic little player he is. Chances are very slim that we'll be able to get him to OT though.
We have no chance on this one.
Looked a class act

He'll be wanted by a number of top European sides, Real Madrid included, so I am not holding my breath. We won't get any of the Bilbao players that beat us yesterday - I imagine Muniain will end up at Real as predicted, Martinez will go to City or Barcelona, Herrera will go to Chelsea or City, Llorente could go anywhere for all I care as we don't need him at all even though he's top class.
