Who wanted Daley Blind other than us? Herrera too.

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.

You need a new sarcasm detector.
Don't remember ever being more confident that if we want a player, we'll get him. We're a financial match for anyone these days, and we have one of his key mentors, Van Gaal, and a respected national teammate in Van Persie.
Of course it helps that I'm relaxed about the whole thing because I wouldn't be that distraught if we didn't get him.

De Boer talks up Memphis as a young Cristiano Ronaldo.

Haha, I wasn't quite sure but by the time I clicked post reply, the damage had already been done.
I remember rumours about Barca being interested, but their interest never got serious.
25M Euros is cheap by today's standard.
Come to us Depay, we'll make a darling out of you! (in a non gay way)

Will we see a Sanchez-style "Memphister Depayted" headline during the summer or will we bag him before the geniuses over at The Sun think of that one?
Memphister United.
Fingers crossed, we've got a whole summer of shocking Sun headlines to look forward to. If we get Hummels, I'll be surprised if one of the rags doesn't go with 'Deutsche-landed'.Memphister United.
Still sounds closer to the correct pronunciation than LvG's attempts.
"Money doesn't 'Mats'er - United in swoop for German star"
Memphis DePAID! - The Sun
People were making comments like that last summer or maybe the year before about one of our targets, can't remember who.
All of them probably. Definitely Blind, Herrera and Shaw(even after reports that Chelsea and Liverpool tried to hijack the deal).
I even heard people say, online and in real life that Di Maria must be shit if no one else was in for him, and that Real wanted rid.
Sounds about right!
Good player, where would we play him in our current system?
Left wing forward.
Memphister United.
Mumfister United.
I actually thought you were being serious too. Comparisons to the likes of Blind and Herrera aren't fair comparisons when it comes to what I said. Depay is an incredibly promising young forward with bags of potential and a relatively cheap price. As I said, it would be odd if no one else was competing for his signature other than us.
All that is missing now is a link to A-ha's "Move to Memphis" which must be his song if he moves to OT...
Is this depay to man united,
and sweet rooney who waits for me?

Have a feeling he'll go to Bayern.
to hell with your feelings
It is best for everyone else in the league that Memphis signs for us, otherwise Woody will go full retard on Bale.
According to Ladyman, Depay is choosing between clubs.
Do you reckon we will find out before the end of the season?

Maybe he is waiting to see if we get Champions League football.
I think cant get over how perfectly he scored this freekick:
It's all gone a bit Eden Hazard!
That's what worries me, though I do feel we'll get it.
Hazard chose London as well as the money, nothing else. We were PL champions
I thought his name was pronounced De-Pay but van Gaal clearly pronounces it De-Pie.
It is De Pie. A Dutch correspondent confirmed it.
The sooner we'll start using the name Memphis the better. He absolutely despise 'The Pie' for some private reason...
Cheers.
He just prefers Memphis. I think we'll be calling him Memphis rather than De Pie
Yeah definitely.
Isn't because he has a poor relationship with his father?
His father came back home early one day and caught him in the kitchen with an apple pie.
Yup, a bit similar to Giggsy's situation.
