In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!

This is the guy who gets calls LIVE on air on transfer deadline day.
This is the guy in which Sky Sports produces a massive promo about in preparation for deadline day.
Jim White is the shit.
Benatia is ours lads.
Jim White obviously doesn't have his own sources.
Get the BELIEVE banner out
Please be true 
Yeah he's also the guy who reads a fecking auto-cue all day.
IN JIM WHITE WE TRUST
Read his timeline. I think this is reliable
Can Jim White save our summer?
Well we all know he works for sky sports, so it's not like he's talking out of his arse.
You guys are all so quick to get your hopes up. I am just waiting for the inevitable: "NOT FOR SALE!" And then we'll talk about how it's just a tactic to get more money out of us and then the player will come out a few days before the deadline and say, "Manchester? No, is never an option."
He is exactly what we need. Smalling, Jones and Evans cannot be trusted.
I've seen a few people pretend SkySports are unreliable over the past few weeks.
What's that about? Is it just fashionable to pretend they're not reliable orr?

They're televised Twitter.
Sabatini was in London aswell yesterday/today & Woodward's down there in his office most of the time so it wouldn't be a surprise if it is genuine and it's picked up over the last few days.
Yeah but some people are understandably cynical because he's so annoying.
Is Benatia left-footed?
Woodward was at OT today. Just before people start to add 2+2....
Whilst SSN loves speculation from the bits I've seen of his Twitter he does seem to get signings pretty spot on most the time to be fair to him
The legend himself Tancredi was the first to mention this today anyway wasn't he? Said we'd bid €30m or something earlier on.

Would be a super signing. Get him + Rojo + Garay. There. I've gone full muppet.
Nope. Central or RCB I'd imagine. Maybe a Rojo signing is still on the cards?
I haven't had Sky Sports for a few years but when I did, I felt they were moving away from BBC levels of reliability, towards more bullshittery like the Tabloids. I'd still trust them above all tabloids though.
I wonder if (if true) this was supposed to be announced tomorrow?
I know but Sabatini's been in London since yesterday so if it is genuine then I can't imagine there'd have been no discussions between the two then.
Signed for Zenit
We'd still be short of a right back after singing this guy.
Jim White is the ultimate transfer muppet, but he doesn't tend to talk in absolutes unless it's pretty solid.
Garay's gone to Zenit.
Why tomorrow?
At the start of the window for feck all, €15 million.
Looking at his twitter, he certainly doesn't write up any nonsense stories. Pretty much everything recently is spot on.
I think a little while ago now. The fee wasn't massive either IIRC.
Yeah just saw he tweeted that before our game today. As much shit as he tweets, you can't say he makes stuff up completely. He's just an annoying twat which is why he's banned.
I've noticed it's something United have done in the past. Steal the thunder as it were. Or maybe that's just me...
Just took a look at his recent tweets. Shane Long and Fraser Forster to Southampton, Assombalonga to Nottingham Forest, Isla to QPR, Lovren to Liverpool...
This could be on.
not sure but i don't think so
Wages were pretty high though.
