They were putting his name on the end of all sorts of bollocks during the summer just so people thought it was a genuine quote. Turns out he hadn't said half the stuff they were tweeting. If he tweeded it then where is his tweet?

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.

€1M a month
That's nothing, Alderweireld would be more like £2.5m a month to get now rather than the summer. Yes a better player, but not 2.5x as good
They will buy players just to stop us getting them (see Mahrez) because why not.
Underwhelming compared to De Ligt.United will get Maguire
It seemed pretty likely until last night. Barca have obviously caved and agreed to pay an obscene amount which has swung it in their favour.
Obviously he got this one wrong but I don't think he is a poor source when it comes to Barca, he definitely get's insider knowledge from somewhere.
We'll beat em to the top on de escalator anyway
I don't remember us even being interested in Mahrez to be fair. Similar to how there's nothing on De Ligt linking him to us, now.
I am starting to feel a bit sorry for the lad. He might be paid well, but his actual footballing career if going south.
We wont be in for him, as usual. Then Ed will complain he only pays big bucks on CBs like Varane, when there is one right in front of him
I know. That was a sarcastic devil smiley.
My naivity trusting them when they named a source!
I don't know why anyone is surprised. We do not know who the manager is going to be, if we are getting a DOF. We takes ages renewing the contracts of our actual good players, not the ones who will snatch your hands off if you just let them brew the tea. We have loads of players that should be gone and should have been gone last summer, but haven't. The club is in a complete limbo at the moment. You then just hope by summer all the seriously good players haven't gone and we are not then left to sign future deadwood.
He is not playing though and is he now an Italian international? Coming to us has put paid to that. Also if clubs won't pay that now. They will just wait to pay less in the summer.
Not your fault, they're a bullshit twitter account trying to make themselves relevant.
Were we ever interested in Mahrez? We had many many opportunities to buy him and never showed any interest. He wasn't a Jose player.
I literally posted you the tweet that it is from
If Dortmund can get Zaha why aren't we competing? Would be a huge improvement for our right wing. If he's not still mad about his time at the club that is.
Except Utdxtra guys don't do that. They posts only when someone reports the news.
Anyways here it is
https://gianlucadimarzio.com/it/calciomercato-inter-adrian-silva-gagliardini-darmian-miranda
Not everything is tweeted, they read the report, filter it and post only Manutd relevant bits.
Zaha hasn't played regularly on the right in years. According to whoscored.com he hasn't even played a single game there this season.
Yes but they're an aggregator and they change the wording of what he says most of the time, which ends up in misleading tweets.
at least in this case they didn't, can we agree to that?
Absolutely, I'm just skeptical of these Twitter accounts.
Yeah, there are few accounts who do that.
We'd have to take De Stairs.
I know we want to get good value for our players, but Darmian's price is only going to depreciate as he gets nearer the end of his contract. He doesn't get any games so other clubs know we want to get rid of him and upgrade. A reduced transfer fee is better than none at all.
I feel really sorry for Darmian. He's essentially killed his career at United and gone from the first choice Italian right back to a forgotten man who only really seems to garner interest from Italy and they don't seem to be willing to pay his value. He's been the absolute epitome of a pro with us and not once moaned, even when he's wasting his peak years. It just shows how bloody tight Juve and Inter are and that they don't really want him all that badly, 12 million for him in two installments is absolutely nothing and I don't blame the club if we refuse to value him any lower, because if anything we're already being kind with that valuation.
They're both skint at the moment. Shopping in the bargain bins and not willing to pay the wages.
Yeah - not to us. We do not need anyone for the left side this Jan.
Right, a 30 years old, and on the left, and for probably a large sum .... that ship has sailed a couple of years ago.
I don't beeeelieve it.
Juve skint?
Inter had their chance to cash in.. too late now.. Both Inter and the player's agent missed out on a pretty big payday.. Poor them.
Perisic was a Jose choice and one we were reluctant to buy even when he was here. You can bet your ass he's been struck from the club's transfer targets now.
