Oh please can we sign Sokratis. Just for the fallout of people having to say Papastathopoulos.

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.
damn! Lindlelof and Sokratis with Baily/Rojo as back ups would be insane!
Sokratis is faster than most of our wingers and would bully the PL
Make it happen woody!
incoming:
Perisic
Sokratis
Morata
Fabinho
Mendy
Lindlelof
outgoing:
Rooney
Smalling
Most perfect window ever
Baily as a backup....you feeling ok?
"YOU DON'T GET OPINIONS BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT MANAGER OR PLAYER"
Worst possible argument. Every successful team around has some sort of flair
The bottom line is he and Mourinho obviously have different ideas on how the team should go forward. Get over it.
Too much football manager
Oh be quiet
Are people not allowed to have opinions on players whose transfer is only a speculation? Why are you acting like managers, even Mourinho have not made massive errors in the transfer windows in the past?
If a public forum is too much for you, you can just sit by the United website and wait for transfer confirmation.
You need to relax man.
We managed to spell and pronounce Mkhitaryan after having tried every single name in Game of Thrones so... but "Rastapopoulos" is another level indeed
.Just to let you know I did read your post but people replied to you with pretty much what I would have said.
You are aware managers make mistakes when it comes to transfers from time to time, ya?
Exactly.
I would. That's exactly what I did on my previous job. Walked away from much better contract to work where I want, and I'm much poorer than Rooney. Not every human being is a greedy feck. In fact, if rumour about Zlatan is true we indeed offered him a contract but he turned it down because he didn't feel it right to get one when he's not able to contribute.
There's also something called "dignity" which some people seem to not know exists.

It's not a rule, it's a spanish law. Buy-out clauses are the way the spanish FA came up with to comply with the law
I don't have a problem with people having their own opinion on what players we need. Posting a smiley because we might miss out on a player the manager clearly wants is just daft. Do people not think he will probably have a lesser player of the same type as a second choice?
I am relaxed. I don't understand this clamouring for us to fail in signing Perisic though. Why are we complaining about signing good players because they don't have 'flair'?
Who would you want us to sign?

Think we had enough of philosophy with LVG already.
I get you but there is nothing pointing to Real and Barcelona getting weaker next season. Real is going to be awash with cash after selling Morata, James and maybe even Bale. As usual, they will bring in some big name players. They are in a good run right now and when those Spanish teams get into a good run, they tend to dominate for a while. Real may not win in Europe next year but they will certainly be contesting for the La Liga again. Meanwhile, Barcelona will be like wounded lions next season. Messi is far from finished and his supporting cast are not getting poorer too.
I think Europe will be tougher next season. People are writing off the EPL teams but I suspect they will be strong in Europe next season because Chelsea, United and Liverpool are back. Pep is also looking like he doesn't plan to merely make up the numbers next season considering his buys so far.
I'm basicaly saying that even though Atletico has a strong team, the odds of them winning next season has not really changed for the better. Personally, I do hope Simeone wins something. He's been 'nearly there' for some time now.
They could get a better keeper for half that price.
£30m for a relegated GK who's only really had one proper season?
If he's worth £30m then DDG is worth £300m
30m
He will be excellent for us but that's mental. I was thinking it would be more around the £20 million mark. We don't have money issues anymore though so i doubt Koeman cares how much he spends as long as he gets his targets.
Didn't realise he was 23. I had it in my mind he was still a teenager. Bonkers price though.
Why is that mental ? He'll be their gk for ten years at least and in 3 years when a gk costs 70m they can quote lunatic numbers for him. It's not a bargain but a fine signing
Madrid are wretched cnuts, they gonna do their best to bleed us dry for Morata, because they know they don't need to sell but we must buy a striker.
No you get as much as you can possibly get and run - aim for the stars and all that. Just because I think it's crazy to value a keeper so high doesnt mean I dont think they will get signed for massive fees. I just dont agree with it.
You take money and you want to buy replacement who will cost as much but inferior quality, it's always risky to sell settled GK, especially the one like De Gea.
As opposed to them being more sympathetic to our need for a centre forward?
