In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) get the depressing job of reviewing United's 3-0 loss at Old Trafford to Liverpool. They discuss what went wrong, Casemiro's day to forget, and the pressure now on Erik Ten Hag. They also take some time to give McTominay a proper farewell, and give their overall thoughts on the Summer Transfer Window.
Tot ziens Donny.
Hopefully, for his as well as for our sake, it's also goodbye for good.

Jobs finden indeed.
Cool. See you back here in June Donny
Best of luck to him, I think that knee injury against Bournemouth put a bullet in his career here. Hope he has a good career.
I completely forgot he went on loan to Everton. I don't think he even clocked more than 2,000 minutes of football for us in the 3 years he's been here.
I really hope he does well
respect for still trying to be a footballer.
At least we get a loan fee. Hope he does well for them.
What a waste of time and money he became.
Hopefully he can resurrect something from his career.

Good luck to him, short careers and he’s wasted a couple of years.
Price is low (especially if add ons are €5m of that) but that’s what happens when we buy the wrong players and over pay… other clubs know our desperation. Probably smell it on us to be honest.
£15m-£20m for Martial next please, £20m+ for McTominay. Throw it all at Toney

I remember he was pretty decent in that match as well. Good luck Donny.
Good luck Donny. Shame it didn't work out here.
Unrealistic expectations.
No one's paying money for Martial. Not when he's gonna be free in 6 months and they won't have to deal with the issue of Martial requesting to be compensated the difference between his current contract and the new one.
Also doubtful that Scott will go from permanent fixture in the starting XI to being sold in less than a month. Not while ETH is still here. And in any case FFP might still prevent us from signing new players in January. If you're talking about January.
I was thinking, why is this happening now then realised were weeks from January. Time really does fly when your team is shit.
Good luck Donny, we should never have bought you.
Good luck Donny, we should never have bought you.
I can't be the only one who forgot he was still on the team. Best of luck to him.
You know the season we‘re having yeah… and you couldn’t let me dream for just five minutes?
agree
Now that is depressing.we will still get more money back on Donny than we did on two Pogba transfers
he was, I thought he might have turned a corner, alas.
If he bosses German football, does that mean it's turd?
End of an era
Unreal he's gone from the player he was at Ajax to a forgotten reservist who cant play over Scott McTominay
Got to be one of the worst PL transfers of all time?
Didn't he cost £40m? I'm not sure how many times he played but he never stood out once.

We aren’t getting any money for martial. He’s free in the summer.
we should get 30m plus for McTominay, a goal scoring midfielder
Good advertisement for their sponsor. We have a few more that they can find jobs for
so glad we kept wasting some bench spots on him and not try and get anybody with an actual future some game time.
Oh feck. I want him to do well there but I could live without that particular forum war going into overdrive.Nothing from his time spent at United suggests he'll do anything that'll get them excited enough to fork out the option. More chance of them asking for their loan fee back.
Hopefully he can resurrect his career. Donny was out of his element here.
Best of luck to him. Hope he gets back to his best and proves people wrong.
From successful Ajax to Manchester United obscurity. As the Mandalorian would say...."This is the way"
No mandatory buy option? Stop being poor Frankfurt!
The sympathy he gets always struck me as odd, given the disdain towards the likes of Fred and McT. He only had to prove to be a better option that those 2 to get a chance and even his old manager didn't think he was.
1 half against Watford in the game that got Ole the sack was the only match he looked like a Utd player, the only match he played with some fire, for almost the entirety of the rest of his mins it was tidy ineffectual nothingness.

He'll be back

He did, just about. 2176 minutes.

A better way to look at it is a return on investment. Donny cost a third of what Pogba cost. Did we get a return on investment of a third of what we got with Pogba?we will still get more money back on Donny than we did on two Pogba transfers
DVB 62 appearances. Mins played 1076 goals 2 assists 2. £27881 per minute played. £7.5 mill per goal/assist.
Pogba 233 appearances. Mins played 17,718. Goals 39. Assists 51. £5023 per minute played. £1 mill per goal/assist.
Embarrassing when you look at it in a way that actually matters.state of your post.
They should pay us in Frankfurters!
