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.

I'd be very happy if its true.
Great. A over-inflated transfer for an English player if true.
No doubt a stupid price tag
I have heard that too today in the pub (I´m from Birmingham).
Milner was at Old Trafford on Monday, that´s a fact according to some Villa fans.

Any sources for this?!
Be very happy if its true. Great player, I think SAF could make him even better!

Milner?
Why?
Why?
This was the talk of why O'Neill was walking, as Lernar had done a deal for Milner with United.
Doubt it.
Personally I think he's a good, but not great, player who we don't really need. The only reason I could to sign him over other central midfielders out there would be his nationality...
He'd be a fantastic addition to the SQUAD but not the incremental improvement we need as a team.

Would be great to see this line-up next season IMO. The foundation of the team british as well.
What?
You don't think that team looks good? What would be great with having Milner is that I think he'd help Rooney not get too isolated when playing as a lone striker which happens too often when we play 4-5-1/4-3-3.
I don't buy it. He'd cost an arm and a leg and he's too similar to Cleverley, who I think is part of Sir's plans for the future.
That's true, I forgot about Cleverley. Very exciting young player, would be great if he could break through in our first team in the future.
I'd feel very indifferent if we signed him. Is he better than Carrick? No. Fletcher? No. Nani? Valencia? Park? I dont think so.
He's a good player, but if we're going to spend big in midfield, surely we'd be looking for someone a bit more creative?
I heard from a guy who's son plays for Birmingham.
Could mean something we're not expecting. Like if Park is moving on and Milner was his replacement.
He'd be a great buy. He's probably a better winger than the ones we already have, and a better attacking midfielder than... well, exactly, we don't really have any attacking midfielders.
Why didn't he play today?
How is he a better winger?
He's got more goals in him than any of our other central options though.

would be a good signing if it was true, an expensive one but I wouldn't complain if we did
Massive bust-up between MON and Milner during the week.
Birmingham? If it was Villa and not there most hated rival then it might of been half believable.
He's better than Park, a better attacking midfielder than Carrick and Fletcher, as good as in-form Nani (and is much more often in-form) and probably slightly better than Valencia.
And I thought this day couldn't get any worse...
A simple 'lol' would've been enough.
I do... bring J.Cole on a free as well and we'd be sorted with the options we already have.
Left footed winger would also be nice too.
£24,000,000 apparently.
That would be nice to see.. Rodwell has it in him to be a superior version of Carrick and Milner would complement those that pairing in midfield.
The three up front is fine, but a left footer and Nani/Valencia rotating on the right flank would be ideal.
I hope you're kidding.
He s one of the most under-rated players in the PL imo. At Villa usually Ashley Young catches the eye but it's Milner the real thing..
If i m not wrong we were linked to him when he was a kid at Leeds - I remember reading somewhere that Fergie rated him very highly at the time.

So basically, sign everyone. Then you'd be happy.
