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.

Good or bad the fans are going to love this nutter. Bit of a firecracker in his personality and game and heart on his sleeves kind of player, in a way similar to Tevez.
Awesome, done deal.
Now onto Blind.
Then, Di Maria or Vidal
Why are we going for Blind first instead of Vidal? We got Reece James and Shaw.
Happy with this, think he has potential to become a fan favourite if he takes to the league well.
Because Blind can also play as a DM (arguably his best posiion) if teh Vidal transfer does not work.
Sweet, he sounds very eager to play for us. Aggressive and quick; think he'll do well in the Prem.
Do you really think sign Blind and play him as a DM was the right choice? I prefer a centre midfield who can at least not scare to play ball forward and not being lazy to close down players as well.
If WC anything to go by, he's a really good signing. He'd add much needed toughness to our defense.
Good to see this basically resolved now. Now lets see it on the official website alredy
Point given, but we will need more energy in midfield to complement Herrera even if we land Blind as DM anyway.
Signing a defender AND getting rid of Nani?
Excellent news.
Next.

Welcome to him, we need players with big big cojones.
Agreed! Robben was much better!
well played, that should be quality, not quantity.
His dream move? That's great to hear.
This Rojo lad started off this whole 'saga' by liking our twitter and a few of our players on insta. If this is anything to by, Di Maria will be our player soon enough

I'm sure talks have begun, he's just so excited he started to throw hints to us.
That @Sly post being put on caf twitter account is really nice summary on Rojo. LvG can be a man who corrects Rojo's weaknesses and makes him into a better player, a player we can rely on in defense. As Vidic showed us, provided used properly, a strong character goes a long way in helping a team's defense.
It's win / win.
It also expresses to me that LvG is confident of bringing in another wide player to replace Nani
You know that is going to be his nickname. Red Rojo. Match made in heaven.Red.
If you are playing a 3-5-2 is another winger necessary?
Hardly getting rid of Nani though. Won't you be covering nearly all of his wages?
We wanted to replace Vidic, well we are replacing his red cards.
So is this gonna be real?
El Rojo
Yes, we're playing 3-5-2 because we don't have quality wingers.
I suppose so but we'd still be paying while he's on the bench. At least this puts him in the shop window. I still like the guy but he's not been the same since that Carragher challenge.
Is Nani really going the other way? Sporting are like €350m in debt, I guarantee we will be paying at least half of Nani's wages.
Even his name means red
Sky Sports also join the party of Rojo. I'm guessing we will hear the official announcement soon.
The sight of him makes me irritated, even that is a bonus.
Even his name means red
in Spanish?
Not seen any confirmation outside of here?
Hope this is true and he's going to be here soon, though guess he's not likely to be playing on sunday, or could it be that quick? Guess there's a few days left yet.

Duncan Castles is saying there is some type of delay.
We still don't know about the formation yet. LVG switched the formation into 4 in the back at 2nd half. It might be 433 or 4411.
Even with 433 with no quality wingers, we can still use Rooney as a winger. Not a good idea. But still better than our current wingers anyway except Januzaj.
It's just so awefull to see Januzaj as a wing back.

Yep
Castles is one of the worst sport's journalists around.
