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.
david amoyal knows feck all. I dont know why people ask him stuff. The response in that tweet is his generic answer. He just translates dimarzios stuff
From a registration point of view, there is no point in naming youngsters in the 25.
I read that a totally different way. Wasn't his previous contract through 2021 and the new 2022? That is 1 more year.
Nothing weird about criticizing a player or manager and still ending up working with him. It's normal in football. Who would have thought that Jose would ever work with Cesc Fabregas and Pedro? How about Mata? Etc.
I am a big fan of Nemanja Matic. If he picks up form at United, he will be a beast. I don't mind us checking to see if he can be available in the Summer if we eventually don't go for Fabinho.
His move back to France was entirely pointless.
Lost a lot of goodwill with the Marseille fans, played poorly for Lyon and now sold a few years later.
The Benzema debacle didnt help either.
Great signing imo. Guaranteed one of the bigger English clubs (probably us smh) will buy him later for double that fee at least.
Just a fecking tease, this statement is up there with the 6 out of 10 comment. #feckHim
'hugely keen and excited'
If that is true, then that's hunger and desire to wear our badge right there.
I'll take such a player over a so called more skillful one who may have his heart elsewhere.
Fabinho, or even Dier, would certainly be more preferable in my opinion - but Matic, at just 28, shouldn't be treated as finished or anything in a hurry.
Did he criticise any of them though?
Doesn't matter what he meant, point is, he needs to learn to think before he speaks so things can't be misconstrued.
They mean Belotti, of course.
Because we're getting Morata. We don't need both.
Veratti to arsenal. You heard it hear first.
Erm....ok
Exactly, I doubt we've even made even close to a formal bid until Morata is dead in the water.
We should be in here and especially at that price.
PSG want to be seen as one of the world's elite clubs. I don't think they'll sell their best players for any price.
Why the feck would we not be in for Fabinho, feck sake.
Especially when those best players stupidly keep signing new contracts every year!
Di Marzio, Pilib de Brun and Delaney all claim that we were, at one time. I would assume it's fallen through/we've decided to look elsewhere - perhaps Chelsea are close to Bakayoko and we've had some positive news re Matic...?
Does Verratti not have a buyout?
Fabinho is better.
Release clause remains at €100 million so absolutely nothing changes.
His contract adds an extra year but think his wages have been bumped for his remaining year, not a chance he isn't leaving next summer.
Agreed.
We'll let mourinho decide
Matic has had 1 good season in the last 3 years, 1 of them being embarrassingly bad under Mourinho himself. There's absolutely nothing in the Matic rumours.
José gave him a public dressing down at Chelsea too. For some reason I always got the impression he wasn't that keen on him.
Anyway, we have obviously ended interest in Fabinho because Verratti is coming.
last, too
I don't disagree. But, for whatever reason, it isn't happening.
I agree with that. But he didn't say "I'm leaving in a year".
José gave him a public dressing down at Chelsea too. For some reason I always got the impression he wasn't that keen on him.
Anyway, we have obviously ended interest in Fabinho because Verratti is coming.
Matic did well last season too. Jose gives everyone a public dressing down, it means nothing.
No he doesn't.
He was one of their weakest players last season, hence being the first player to be replaced. If Fellaini had positional discipline he would be an almost identical player. Do you really think Jose would sign someone who was one of the biggest let downs for him during his Chelsea meltdown? Not a cats chance in hell.
He had 35 league apps last year. He was not replaced. Infact he was preferred to Fabregas in Contes system to partner Kante.
