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.
Couldn’t agree more. Shame about injuries otherwise he’s a fantastic player offensively and defensively. He doesn’t score loads but man, as a traditional winger he’s electric and as you said creates havoc. Always rated him highly.
You're not wrong about his playing minutes.
I'm right. The most minutes that he has played with the stats you shared is the equivalent of 20 games, it's the season with 8 goals and 12 assists in the league. The other seasons it's less than 17 games.
In fact I generally underestimate his stats, they are actually excellent for someone that doesn't rely on that at all and for which lack of end product is a fair criticism when you see the amount of chances he creates with ease. I get that people like to hate on players but Coman is someone that doesn't deserve it, he plays Football the right way and has a great attitude on the pitch.
That's a fair point. My assessment was perhaps hasty.
I would be sad to see him go, but mainly because he has been here for so long and was important in some CL games like the final against PSG.
He was always great in 1 vs. 1 situations but also frustrating because his decision making and precision at passes and crosses never got better.
His age and many injuries also made him worse at dribblings.
So all in all its probably best to get some money for him while we can.

Bang average player. Still more useful than Rashford though.
My thoughts too. Rashford looks like he wants to be anywhere else other than a professional football match this past year.
He’s not average at all, just often injured b
Tell me you haven't watched the player without telling me you haven't watched the player.
He’s good but it’s the wrong time to sign him. Plus we’ve got enough attackers who struggle with decision making as it is.
We've been "linked" to Sterling... I know which I'd prefer. Hint: It isn't Sterling
Coman is way too good to play in Saudi Arabia at this point. Very injury prone, but over the last 5 years he was Bayern's best winger, absolute world class at times.
So I really wonder what happened, was the last injury one too many? Has his acceleration taken a hit?

Probably one of the worst takes I have read on here, and I have read plenty of bad takes.
I would take him in a heart beat if we manage to sell Sancho.
He almost retired after his ankle injury two years ago. It seemed his body had given up and so had he.
He is such a devastating 1 vs. 1 winger. It is a joy to watch. Unfortunately injuries have taken its toll and with someone so reliant on brutal acceleration he will have to change his game.
In Saudi he can get by with playing at 90% and he would still embarrass every FB. It’s easy money and less stress on his body. It is disappointing though.
For Bayern it makes sense to sell. He is way too injury prone for his astronomically wages and they are covered at the winger positions.
It’ll be sad to see him go though. Never lived up to his potential but he was an important part of the team and in integrating the young players and the French speaking ones.
We're only linked to Sterling as a means to get rid of Sancho and that's only if it makes sense financially. We aren't actively searching for wingers.
I will never understand why people would want injury prone washed up shite from other clubs.
it doesn't make sense on any level to me. Who swaps one under-performing player for another? Surely Chiesa is also a better bet. but yes, we don't need wingers, we need a no.9
We had a reported interest in Olise earlier in the window to be fair
Judging this lad purely off nerdy little graphs sums up the state of modern football fans actually.
I'd stay clear due to his broken down body, but as a footballer he's exactly the type I'd love to have here.

Yes he is injury-prone but when he was fit to play, i didn't see any decline in his acceleration.
Not yet, but he's a player whose style of play won't age well.
looks like he might be off to Saudi Arabia
Not even rumors about the fee but Bayern seems to be running a tighter ship recently.
I think it has already happened to a degree. He's still fast. But in my view, he accelerates a little slower than he used to. Remembering him a few years ago, he could accelerate in ways almost no other footballer was able to. He could be standing and two seconds later, he was almost at full speed. Those days are already gone. Which is no wonder, considering his injuries.
Allegedly the offer for Coman from Saudi ist is €40m. Bayern would accept. It is down to Coman.
Is he a possibility on loan if Sancho leaves?
He basically earns the same wages (€17m), so it is up for you to decide.
Jeez man your previous C suite people handing out contracts like handing candy to a kid on Halloween!
There is a reason that Kahn and Brazzo are no longer at the club and about 17m reasons each for Coman, Gnabry and Goretzka still being there.Jeez man your previous C suite people handing out contracts like handing candy to a kid on Halloween!
Should we get him on loan if Sancho leaves today?
