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.

Hope he's not having second thoughts, therefore players feeling the urge to speak out

I think Pogba has the look of a man whose future is decided and is enjoying his holiday.
Likewise Wayne
Why do people take that as a sign? Same things you read from fans every year 
Rooney will be talking about it as he will have been asked. Nothing to it. It's his opinion not anything that sheds light on the status of the transfer. Stop being so desperate and be patient.

Don't think that United players were doing it, Fergie wouldn't have approved. Barca and Real used it quite often though, the Fabregas saga was just the worst example of it, every week Xavi or Iniesta or someone else will speak up about Fabregas, his Barca's DNA and him being trapped in England, it was bloody annoying.
Interesting thing about that Rooney article. Written by same person who did 'Fergie gives green light to Pogba story in the Mail on Saturday', something which is also referenced in this piece.
He probably does. He's captain. See in the Mail article where there is a line about Mourinho telling him who he is going to be playing with.
Can''t believe a thread about Rooney has 34,000 posts!
Despite the fact I need to sleep. I was kinda hoping for a mad rush of tweets tonight. Oh well on Monday I guess.
Thanks lad.
No way would Rooney talk about it without been asked to prior to the interview, same imo with Zlatan last night, the question of course is why.
He was our primary striker last season and scored 8 EPL goals.
Answer this question: do you think that MUFC's No.1 striker scoring 8 league goals, is acceptable?
For me, an 8 goal per season striker shouldn't even make the bench for West Ham, let alone MUFC.
Even LVG stated that he was hoping for a 20 EPL goals per season striker, suggesting that Rooney could do this.
Unfortunately for LVG, Rooney failed and we could only get 5th place, which resulted in LVG's sacking.
Maybe your standards are very low and you think that MUFC deserve to have a striker who scores 8 EPL goals per season. I don't.
And Rooney shouldn't even be on our bench (for reasons explained above), let alone our first XI.
No updates so in the last 5 hours? This is getting a bit annoying, I really hope we finalise this shite this week.
That is not a bad point at all. And no, 8 goals is nowhere near good enough, even if you take some of those games playing in midfield into account.
However, Rooney is far from the only person accountable for three poor seasons.
If this thread had a theme tune it would be Don't Stop Believing by Journey.
With Rooney he has the hunger and desire to win, he's a good captain. He just doesn't look sharp or fit. He lacks acceleration or dribbling.
The best moment for me of Rooney in years has been his final against Crystal Palace (FA Cup) where he did the dribble past several players, it's the first time in years he's made me think "Why can't he do this more often".
But then again he didn't play the season as our main striker did he?
Hope he's not having second thoughts, therefore players feeling the urge to speak out
yeah, thats what I though too.
Very odd that 2 existing players would speak so publicly about a proposed transfer. I think thats unprecedented in recent Manchester United history?
There's been no update since Friday night.
HAPPY PO6BA DAY
Hope today is finally the day
Hope today is finally the day
It could be as early as today, Juventus don't announce transfer dealings on weekeneds. Players had a game on Saturday, the weekend seemed a no-go.
It could be today (Monday) due to Rooneys testimonial match against Everton on the 3rd. The latest it'll be is probably a week today.
There doesn't need to be an update. It's clearly done and dusted. They aren't going to make an announcement on a weekend.
It'll be a few days yet I imagine, Pogba still hasn't done a medical yet.
Which is what everyone expected. Nothing ever happens on the weekend for us. We should hopefully get more information tomorrow, but considering Pogba is still on holiday, this could well take close to another week.
So true2 key players openly talking about the transfer now, amazing some still deny it's even happening!
It's been nice being occupied by work, saves me from ruining my f5 button.
People just want the same shit to be repeated over and over, because they are scared that a little silence from journalists who have others matters to attend to surely means that Real Madrid must have swooped and taken him.
Silence is good. Nothing has changed from last week, where it was said it's all but done and he will sign this week.
Patience.

I'm hoping that after midday it'll be Pogbay Afternoon.
Can't see anything happening until he's back from holiday. We've got a busy week too with the testimonial and then charity shield. Think next Monday it'll be announced.
it's like the jose signing all over again. Everyone reliable says pogba is coming, I don't think there is one reliable journo adamant that he isn't coming. Yet now the hype has died down, esepcially from Di Marzio etc some fans think this is a bad sign.
Just like Jose, we all know this is happening, even Zlatan knows it's happening
Don't know why but I got an alert from this post.
I think it's best to look at all the big names that came here and failed individual circumstances. 2 of them came after having injury problems and Di Maria didn't suit Van Gaals football + was unsettled in Manchester
Pogba doesn't have those injuries, seems like the perfect Mourinho player and has lived in Manchester for 3 years before so must surely like the place if he's willing to come back.
Just grouping all the big names together like that is too black and white
Moved it to the right thread
I think we'll announce him moments after City announce Sane/ Jesus/ Stones and steal their thunder.
Cue pandemonium on BlueMoon and how the media are bent rags and biased against us...

Yeah because Utd fans in here never say the media is biased against usI think we'll announce him moments after City announce Sane/ Jesus/ Stones and steal their thunder.

To be honest I don't read man city's forum, or any other teams for that matter
But I very often see people on here think the media is constantly against Utd.
Looks like Pogba is the youngest world class player in the list too (1 year younger than Neymar), and I am sure if Neymar were to transfer at todays market, he would probably cost at least 120m or more. So I would even say its a fair deal for Pogba.
Rooney and Ibra have talked openly about Pogba joining. It's only a matter of time.
Hurry up and sign so that I can order the shirt
