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.

Southampton had interest in Rojo right? The last left sided 'defender' we beat Southampton to was Buttner.
Now you see why I put defender in quote marks.

To the Blanco thread!
He was in Castrol Index team of the tournament and was the 9th best ranked player on their Index.

People are doubting him. But he played for Argentina. In a World Cup Final. Regardless of anything else, and purely on that basis, he's more than alright.
Kleberson played in a World Cup final.
He might be a good player, but that means feck all.
It doesn't though does it? And Kleberson was a good player, at that time.
Stephane Guivarch may have a place in this discussion.
He was a 2 in 3 striker in the French league before Newcastle ruined him.
I'm just waiting for the we aren't interested speech.
What's his injury record like?
Roque Junior too.
Rojo maybe a good player. But saying he's great because he played in a World Cup final is silly.
Blind played in different positions during world cup. Left Centre Back, Left wing back and defensive midfield.
This means nothing. Rodriguez spent his games during world cup as a number 10 role.
I think someone pointed out he missed like 17 games from injury. It was something low like that.
He'll get injured as soon as he steps into the training complex though.
Did Blind play left centre back? Really? I thought it was Indi, Vlaar and De Vrij the whole way?
Hopefully he brings his mate with him..
I think it was @Sly who mentioned that he has very rarely been injured in his time at SCP.
Done Dealio bro...
Rojo has confirmed the deal.
Spoke to Argentinian radio station apparently and confirmed he is joining us.
Is it possible that he will get away with more in the premier league? I rarely watch the Portuguese league to know if the refs there are stricter or not. Would people who have seen him say he is a bit like Rafael in the way he is a tad rash with his tackling?
A paper report? His own Twitter account? Or you heard it yourself?

"It feels like a dream, to be a Manchester United player," the defender told ARG Radio Continental. "Leaving Sporting wasn't easy."

No websites or papers have it yet? I won't hold my breath.
Not with Woodward handling things.
Websites usually have it faster than papers.
So did Stoner_shotts. Are we signing him as well?
Hopefully he sends a few txts to Di Maria.
I was listening to Sirius radio and one guy was saying Jackson is really not liked around OT. Don't know what it stems from but it seemed real.
That's how you know it's happening.
Journalist who works for Radio Continental in Argentina is the source of the quotes..
Thanks to all the world's media and football fans who are citing twiteros note that we did to Marcos Rojo exclusively.

I only saw bits of him in the world cup. He wasn't rash in the tackle but he certainly used his strength well.
I think he did. Indi sat on the bench in a few of game.
Yeah in these games.

Against Chile and Mexico.
Had been following Netherlands during the world cup due of LVG.
Seems like this one is basically done then? I'm pleased. Doesn't seem like he was our first option but he's still a decent CB and that is what we need.
Awesome, done deal.
Now onto Blind.
Then, Di Maria or Vidal
