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.
I don't think Real would want to sell him to us.
I agree
Mourinho says that a loan to a PL club will be good for Sahin as he'll get experience in the areas that are lacking in his current play, but that he doesn't mind which club Sahin goes to, "Arsenal, Spurs, or Liverpool," he just hopes that Sahin will be playing soon.
It all depends on Sahin. If he is injured or doesn't perform up to the mark, then Arsenal have a chance. But he performs well and plays a lot of games, then they will be priced out of a move or will have to break their transfer record to sign him.
That sounds very reasonable for someone so highly rated. Why would Real agree to that? He's barely had an opportunity with them.
Look up the case of Sergio Canales.
That's why, and they only paid £8m for him. I don't think mourinho rates him that highly, but he wants to edge his bets. If he is outstanding at his loan club, chances are Madrid will then offer him something and he will probably choose to go back there.
If they are not that impressed with him, or decide they don't want him back for whatever reason, they will still be able to sell him for a decent profit. Not bad for a player they have hardly used, so cannot really be seen to have missed.
Canales hadnt proven anything yet and his clause was expensive considering he's had multiple injuries. Valencia had to talk them down before they finally bought him.
that won't matter if a buy clause is added.
I just feel that if Wilshere & Frimpong come back strong and Diaby remains not-injured; then Wenger will feel the investment is not necessary & rightly so.
Ramsey might want to start performing though.
Out of interest how much did Madrid pay Santander for him in the first place?
If they paid a pretty penny, and he was extremely highly regarded, they would always demand a large sum for him.
Was signed by Madrid for €10 million from Borussia Dortmund 12 months ...We should hijack him from Arse
Canales was €5 million if I remember right
Canales was €5 million if I remember right
Answered wrong first time now got three replies lol .The joys of working nights
Maybe not as good a player as they thought? If so it represents a good profit.
Again going to Liverpool on loan according to Marca today.
Yesterday to us, today to Liverpool, tomorrow to Spurs, on Saturday to Man utd.........
Whether we get him or not one thing I do feel is R.Madrid or Mourinho don't really want him at Arsenal so it wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't come

Why? we aren't any threat to them.
Champions League?
I guess that's exactly what he meant.
It's pretty clear Sahin does not want to go to Liverpool!
If he goes it will be because Madrid won't let him go to a decent team..
That press conference will be funny.
"Oh look, Sahins crying, he must be really emotional about coming to Liverpool."
You see things like this and it does make you wonder why a player would want to go to the capital club in the first place. It happens quite often.
If he's going to mope around for a season because he didn't want to be here I'd rather not have him. We already had Aquilani. But if he plays to regain his place in Real's midfield then we could certainly do with his quality.
I guess its one of those messed up situations.
If you're a young rising star then your ego will always be telling you that of course you will be starting every match when you to Real Madrid.
Well I meant in general but yes at this moment in time I don't believe we are good enough to beat them in the CL unfortunately.
Twitter seems quite certain that he will have his medical for us tomorrow.
Wait.. He is going to Liverpool now? What happened?
Wenger's obviously decided he doesn't want him.
He just didn't want to have to play against Stoke.
Rodgers:
"Hopefully in the next 24 hours we'll get some confirmation on that."
"It's quite far [along the line]. He's a very good footballer."

Madrid probably won't allow an option to make the deal permanent.
He'll improve them in the short term though and that's always a bad thing. The longer they stay out of the top four the better really.
Liverpool look set to beat Arsenal to the loan signing of Nuri Sahin after offering Real Madrid a superior financial package to secure the midfielder’s signature. Sahin had been expected to join Arsenal but Liverpool’s willingness to pay a greater proportion of his £120,000-per-week salary has turned the situation in their favour.
Real have accepted Liverpool’s offer to pay 70 per cent of Sahin’s wages to take him on loan for the rest of the season. Arsenal had been prepared to pay only 60 per cent, but were unwilling to accept an option price of £14 million at the end of the season, and despite the added lure of Champions League football now look likely to miss out on one of Arsène Wenger’s summer transfer targets. The Frenchman is considering his options.

Suggests 14m clause could be on the table. Hope so, sounds good to me. Sounds weird though that Wenger would take issue with that. Then again, he is notorious for his miserliness in transfer dealings.
If we have genuinely turned down signing Sahin because we don't want to pay £14m, that won't help the board's case.
