£11.4m (€13m) would be decent business for Darmian given that we only bought him for £12.7m (€18m at the time) 3 years ago and he only has 1 year left on his contract.

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.

Yeah we pretty much got all our money back, can't complain really.
Yeah that's probably it. He's adored there.
I was thinking the exact same. Such nonsense.
€60m for Martial has to be a joke surely? That'd be making a loss on him.
So much Italian crap this morning
How many of his clauses do you think have been activated?
Only one clause out of 3 has been activated. He hasn't played enough games for France for the 2nd one (and won't do so because he's not going to the world cup) and he hasn't won the Balondor for the 3rd one.
As it stands We'd have paid £36m + £7m for one clause. So Martial has cost us roughly 50m euros.
Aye that’s what I thought. So we will be making a slight profit on him. Disappointing nonetheless if we don’t get above €80m for him.
Wouldn't mind mandukic to be honest.
He's cost us €60M as the contract was in euros. Paid €50M for transfer alone, then €10M for scoring 25 goals.
Im a bit mixed on it. We overpaid for him in the first place, The two add-ons were 25 goals for United in 4 seasons and 25 caps for France in 4 seasons which are both quite straight forward to achieve without being a good player. The 3rd one obviously pays for itself since its the Balondor.
Forgot about the exchange rate being better when we bought him (bloody Brexit). So thanks for that!
Ah sorry thought we'd paid more. Fwiw, we wouldn't have got €80m for him. Monaco inserted a 50% sell on clause for any fee between €60-100m.
Edit: @Damien was right, the exchange rate did me.
Mandzukic and Sandro in for Martial and Darmian would be fine by me. If we could get Dybala or Pjanic thrown into the mix too that would be perfect.
They did?
Anyone else find it surprising that Darmian is older than Sandro??
Yeah it was in the leaked contract that did the rounds, all the newspapers and Sky Sports reported the clause also.
My thoughts exactlyMaybe people really are overrating Meunier here...
Id love Mandzukic at United, a brilliant backup striker who can also run the channels.
Can see why Jose would want him, Dzeko would be a good alternative.
Can see why Jose would want him, Dzeko would be a good alternative.
We would be lucky to get Mandzukic and Sandro.
Asking for Pjanic and Dybala would be stretching it, they won't sell us almost half their squad especially with them about to loose Buffon and Chiellini.
Think Dzeko is better than Mandzukic but if Mourinho is looking for a hard working CF, Mandzukic is the man as he is way more mobile than Dzeko, but Dzeko is so much more physical.
If we can't get Sandro I think Teirney would be a good option.
I would be pretty happy with this transfer. The guy doesn’t get the credit because he’s not a glamorous name. We do need someone to come on for Lukaku.
That was only if no clauses had been activated.
We're currently on 2.5.3 so if we get between €70-90m (not happening unless we sell within the league) then 50% of the difference is split.
My point precisely...Chel seem to get exorbitant transfer fees for utterly useless players...we just make our money back!
Must be some better choices to go for than Mandzukic.
So if not Sandro, who is worth getting at left back? Doesn't seem to have much quality out there at the min.
Džeko is a more profilic striker but Mandžo's all round game is a bit better, not to mention he's very good with his head. I think he'd be a good backup striker and would work well in our gameplay. Also he gives his all on the pitch every game.
Like the sound of that
Lots of clickbaity Italian nonsense this morning. The fact that the likes of Di Marzio, Romano et al are silent on much of this is telling.
No Italian transfer happens without those guys talking about it.
Won't see much transfer news today, it seems media are all focussed on UCL.
True, although you can bet they would be tweeting about stories that they had credible news on.
Seems some of our recent tweets are descending back into clickbait sources from tabloid and/or aggregator sites who know feck all.
As a backup striker to Lukaku? I'd be surprised if Manzukic wanted to come!
Inter have an option to buy on the loan set at €38m. The player's buyout clause with Valencia is higher than that, so unless inter use their option, he goes back to valencia and then they make the price they want(up to his buyout clause, of which i don't the price)
Please nooooo
