In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
For fecks sake.
Not really. Madrid were in but they were never going to match our fee. That much was obvious during the tournaments. They were never going to break up the best midfield pair in the world and pay 100m in the process. It was an open goal for us to sign, only we were crazy enough to stump up such a fee.
You can't say Shaw was a good transfer and call the rest overrated. He's been an abysmal transfer and his attitude is clearly gone.
I would take Andre Silva over Morata. Strong Mourinho type #9, Portuguese, wants to take himself to the next level and prove himself as opposed to someone with a dodgy goal-scoring record who has very clearly said he doesn't want to leave. Shades of Di Maria/Keylor/James, I doubt Morata's motivation will be sky-high.
Koulibaly over Lindelof/Keane. 6"5 and a very good passer from the back. No compromise on height if Smalling is sold (which I'm against). Has worked with a very tactically-intelligent coach (Sarri). Only downside is that he's off to Africa every two Januaries.
Fabinho over everyone.

That would be both 1st choice cbs going though no way that's sustainable
You know what will happen Andre silva will go somewhere like Dortmund or athletico for 20 million then will be linked with him in a couple of years for 80 plus million. Don't get why the club can't see this.
Not worth anywhere near the amount we'll pay for him, I'm afraid.
I strongly disagree. I would like us to pay as little as possible but I think some people will be very surprised at his class.
Because top clubs can't take chances on players anymore. People lose their job when that happens. I don't see why that's hard to comprehend. He won't develop here the same way he'd develop on other teams
What ? Why ?
in no way shape or form did moyes get a trophy, it was never said that he did and it will never be said that he did. We never counted it as a trophy when saf won it. Not sure why people are saying we won 3 when its really just 2.. Jose Mourinho is the first manager to win a trophy in his first year as a manager at United because he won the League cup first not the COC
I dont see your point lad
Any preference between him and Lukaku?
Probably fed up of them selling all their players to Liverpool.
For our sake, I hope you're right, mate.
I don't know why but a few weeks ago one of Lequipe journalist said that Puel expected to be fired. He has been reportedly talking to the ASSE since.
Oh, Morata, definitely. He might be overpriced, but when it comes to inflated numbers, those of Lukaku have reached comical proportions.
To be fair Southampton have been dismal since the final, pretty sure they didn't score at home for over 5 games at the end of the season. I'm surprised they didn't seriously consider Marco Silva before he took over at Watford.
LvG to Southampton?
While I agree, Napoli just on a spate of contract renewals of all their big players and Koulibaly signed a 5 year deal earlier this year. So absolute zero chance.
Like this one you mean?

They had a pretty crap end to the season after the final. Here is Southampton fan forum thread. Quite a few wanted him out since December.
Are athletico and Dortmund not top clubs?? Seriously. By top clubs you think Madrid, Barca, Bayern, Juve. We're defiantly not in that category performance wise for at least the last 3 years. Athletico are better then us let's be honest. Also Juve always take a chance on young promising players. Hasn't done them any harm has it. There linked with schick at the moment which is another top prospect.
When we signed Rooney and ronaldo they were promising youngsters that turned out okay didn't it?
Don't know what your on mate but your lost. You need to take a good look at we're we are
Barely means anything these days.
There's a big difference between those two clubs and with Mertens and Insigne signing as well, they're keeping their best players - unlike Southampton
Well it does for the price we would have to pay to get him. It would be a price we wont pay.
I didnt, I listed him with all the others but said I still have hope for him
LvG to Southampton?
The Mirror (crap) mentioned this a few days ago!
I refuse to get erect if he's not even calling it a SUPERBOOM.
He's saying Inter is planning to keep Perisic despite United 40m offer, Inter asked for 55-60m.
Good signing he's a good keeper and did well for Roma.
That's their hard line stance I'm sure. They're dreaming if they think they're going to get more than 40m even at that price they should be happy.
Surely we can get Costa for cheaper? He seems a much better winger.
40 million was more than fair. 60 would make more sense for James in my opinion.
Perisic plays the piano? Cool.
Feck Perisic at this stage, other and better targets around and on plus, Inter are demanding insane money for a 29 year old.
United fans on twitter are making him lose his mind.
Inter can get fecked. We need to make moves for other wingers, Costa and Bernardeschi wont stay long in the market
