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.

Yep. Equally good with both. I can't even make out if he is a righty or lefty most of the time.
His movement would be a huge boost to us alone. He plays with a terrible LB in Nagatomo, so he'd be used to our LB issues also.
Yeah, always good to have attacker who can use both feet.
Maybe now people have seen a glimpse of him they will stop calling him a turd. I honestly think he will shock people here. very solid player.And Lukaku will thrive with him around.
People that were calling him a turd had never seen him play.
I think we've walked away from the deal. Inter are asking for too much.

If he's playing today would it be right to think the deal isn't anywhere near completion? I doubt it he'll be a United player at the end of the transfer window.
It's more that he has been a good professional, another thing in his favour, unlike some who have pulled the old sickie trick. Deals can be done in days if we still want him.
Yeah that's true, it's better that he doesn't refuse to play or have training ground bust ups.
I've not really been keeping up with the Perisic transfer, is it still even on?
Their manager does not want to sell him. If we want him we will have to dig deep in our pockets. From his comments I can now understand why he wants Martial on loan for a season, he said it is too late for them to find a replacement for Perisic.
This doesn't make much sense.
Under Moyes and LVG, United had to recreate the core and backbone of SAFs teams all while trying to compete for the league and play at certain levels. The quickest and most logical way to build a winning side is to buy players.
There were more misses than hits, obviously. But hindsight is 20/20. Jose is one or two players short from his core group of players. Some currently are in the United squad, but their performance levels haven't reached that core player status such as Pogba, Herrera, DDG, Bailly, Lukaku, Rashford, Valencia
Crazy.... He has always been good but because it was Chelsea now he's the bomb..
I feel for the lad, he will have some much pressure on his shoulders IF he finally arrives, i feel Woody should have coughed up the money pre-Lakaku! to bring him in under the radar as such.
I hope Perisic turns out as good as Tony V in the sense that he wasn't the most exciting transfer but on the pitch he delivered exactly what was asked of him.

We appear to be waiting either for Inter to drop their price, or (as this scenario is looking increasingly similar to our pursuit of Morata) we are now looking at other targets. That seems to be looking more and more likely to me.
Some have suggested RM may still go for Mbappe, and that would probably act as a catalyst for other possible targets to become available. I think there could be some merit to that scenario. Why not simply bide our time and see if other events develop, or not? But, if there are no new developments, we still have the security of knowing we can always go back and stump up the 50m for Perisic.
Yup, one of his biggest strength is he is very two footed, I remember he scored some great goals with his left foot with Croatia
Rumour was we tried by lowballing Inter in the hopes that they would need to cash in to avoid FFP sanctions. Didn't quite work out as hoped.
He was fantastic against Chelsea. Couldn't handle him. Absolutely ran the show.
Watched his good showing against Chelsea earlier. Not surprised at all he had a good game. If Ousmane Dembele isn't gettable then we need to bring Perisic in, he will frighten opposition fullbacks.
Always was a fan, sign him up
Perisic is there for the taking.
Who's Mario?
you mean Joao Mario?I still find that 'defensive winger' label hilarious 
. What a load of shite .
. What a load of shite .Anyone can look good in a pre-season friendly. Plenty of our shite has done so in the past. Let's not go overboard.
He's also looked good in a world cup for his country.
Hes a decent player
He is does not mean he would improve us though.
Also doesn't mean he is worth a hundred billion billion dollars and Martial which is what has been quoted.
Would improve the squad for sure, just don't like the fee. The only player in our squad potentially better on the wing is Martial IMO
And Mkhi and Mata.
Mata isn't a winger.
He without a doubt would improve us. His pace and ability to go on the outside would give us an extra string to our bow. With his ability to stretch opposing defences would make us tactically much more flexible.
Mata definitely not, and Mhiki seems better playing a free role or through the middle
He has played more on the wing than he has as a #10 in his career.
In his career with us, maybe. He isn't a winger. So it's unfair to compare him to an out and out winger like Perisic.
Yes.Who's Mario?
You mean he has played wide but not as a winger? He spends more time cutting in than providing any width.

We did, weeks ago - by Inter's own admission.
