In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.

Holy crap. 119 million euros
The clock at Sky broke? All this "breaking" seems to be way too late. Perhaps "official" is a better term to use this time?
Yup. They are awful these days.
Juan Mata will soon leave Manchester United and engage with Everton. Negotiating the transfer of around 25 million euros

Can't believe in a world where Troy Deeney could move for potentially 30m+ Mata could leave for 25m 
We should fleece them for atleast £35m. The feckers sold us Fellaini for more than we are demanding for Mata, that is just wrong in every sense.
Surely must be other teams interested for the quoted €25, otherwise it would be rather mental.Can't believe in a world where Troy Deeney could move for potentially 30m+ Mata could leave for 25m
fecks sake, I hope we don't sell him.
We are terrible at selling players for decent fees.
Tbf they're just quoting the Daily Mail article from yesterday and have just converted the £100m to the nearest million euro which 119m euros.
I mean 25m euros is around £21m. If Everton want £50m for Stones, surely we'd be getting a lot more for Mata.
Where are all these Chinese clubs when we need them?
Any sale to another English club should be atleast worth 35m pounds. I wont mind 25m pounds to a spanish or italian club. But 25m EUROS to Everton is insanely low
It's the United/Everton cycle it seems of us selling large and you giving us your unwanted players on the 'cheap'. Tbf though he's 28 and hasn't set the world alight while at United, £21 million is quite decent on reflection. The fees for English players always make this type of deal seem like it's wildly underpriced.
It would be nice for us fans to come away with a feeling that we've got a decent price for our player for once though.
Don't really know why, it's not our money..
Difference is Everton don't want to sell Stones and we probably want rid off Mata.
When you re-tweet something in another language, can you please add the translation below the tweet.
Kind of makes sense that Mata will go for less than Stones and Deeney. I mean we are obviously looking to offload Mata because he doesn't bring what we expect of him and he isn't a Mourinho type of player and we have already signed a replacement in Mkhitaryan. The price for Deeney and Stones is much higher because their clubs don't want to sell them, they are trying to hold on to them as much as they can and that obviously inflates the price.
If we'd be forced to sell a player we want to keep the price will also be steep but if you want to sell somebody you don't need anymore, the price is naturally lower. €25m is ok taking everything into consideration.

always wondered if posters understood supply and demand
Then we should make sure our surplus went abroad then. If PL teams really rave about our players, then they should pay a fairer price. You know, like when we signed Mata from Chelsea. Mata was already benched by Mourinho, and we had to pay the club record fee at the time.
Yes that's a valid point, but Stones has also been pushing for a move for a year so that has to be factored in aswell. Either way, we should sell to the highest bidder, or offer him to Juve for a deal with Pogba.
Not sure why people think we're going to get a better price than is being quoted. There's a reason he's been cast off from two big clubs, maybe Everton will be his level for now but he's not exactly what they're screaming for is he?
Mata is on very high wages as well. £150k per week iirc. That will factor into negotiations around the fee too. High wages,mocking off an average season and a manager that probably doesn't rate him too highly. 20-25m is probably t be expected.
Why are Man City so keen to get Arteta on their coaching staff? He's been linked for a while now and hasn't got any links with City
If its pounds then fine. Euros would be robbery
No, but he got links to Guardiola
She's a journalist for infosport and the rumour has come form a fake Twitter account.
Why are we dealing in euros currency with another English club? This doesn't make sense
Nonsense. When we sold Nani for peanuts to some Turkish club, some folks here claimed it's because he's on high wages and so on. Now that same Turkish club is about to sell Nani after at least a year for almost double the price we sold him to them. I bet they'll sell Van Persie for a decent price too while we sold him for peanuts. Go figure that out.
Chelsea or Madrid sells players who they do not need and who are on high wages for very good prices every time they need to. I don't see why it should be different for United. I'm not asking Woodward to demand ridiculous prices but it should be quite decent and not just the peanuts we are used to every single time a player leaves.
People would find excuses to justify anything bad we do even silly ones. The truth is that we're pretty bad at selling players. The most annoying thing is that we're pretty bad at buying players too compared to other clubs; we get fleeced more often than not. I don't even understand why anyone should debate this.
