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.

Haha that would be the funniest outcome of them all. Dortmund have been after Varane and Isco in the past.
Today? Are we not playing on Sunday? What is wrong with me? Oh, well, back to RAWK meltdown thread
I'd love to see what other clubs actually value our players at in this market compared to all the crazy prices going round.
Just wait till Barca come calling!!
The press-conference is held two days before the game I think. Koeman's was yesterday as Everton play tomorrow.
Okay, I will.
It is Delaney.
Maybe the people running the club didn't expect anyone to pay that much for him and had to sell him when Real Madrid met that price just like how Barcelona didn't expect anyone to meet Neymar's release clause, but no one is saying Barcelona are responsible for inflating the market, people are blaming only PSG for inflating the market.
Let's see if we have anyone they actually want first. Pogba has to improve a lot for them to want him. He hasn't got back to the Juve form yet.
Sigurdsson might be available for 100m should Liverpool be audacious enough to go toe to toe with Everton in finding a suitable replacement for Coutinho.
They wouldn't be able to afford Pogba. They're only offering ridiculous amounts of money because they have the Neymar money and are desperate to sign a replacement before the start of the season.
It's common knowledge that their financial situation is far from ideal.
For who?
That's true. Unlike Real I am not sure who they could sell in the future to generate money. Real have a number of players who could be sold if they fancied a new toy. Barca don't have another Neymar to flog, Real could make good money out of a Bale.
Good question because I can't think of anyone.
On the basis of?
Pogba turned down Real to move back to United. He wants PL and Manchester. He won't go anywhere just yet.
Yeah, Real Madrid are in a much better long-term position all things considered. Even in terms of talent in their squad.
Probably just going to sign Perisic and move on with what we've got. Title challenge will have to wait until 2018/19....
Playing from the sides means either a full back or winger eh? This guy's obviously more intelligent than he looks.
They have some really good young talent. Barca have let that side slip badly.
They wont have another 200mil to spend unless they sell Messi.
I wouldn't want to be risking that sale. Yes you might get a ton of money, but my god what he brings is almost impossible to replace. Not sure they would want to become just another club.
Cried with happiness. He had uncle Pat on Skype

Think its obvious now pool are just playing the game and are trying to fork out less money in loyalty bonuses while getting a fee from Barca. Even they are not that stupid to think they can keep a player who is unhappy without a negative effect.

Yeah I think FSG needed him to put the request in so they can sell him and save face given they have had a weak window so far.
I'm very curious to see how this effects Klopp though..
Madrid driving up the price for Dembele or BVB using Madrid's name to drive up the price. Either way, they want them to pay up.
I very much doubt Madrid would use the Catalan media to make Barca overpay.
Wasn't that ballbag? Marca was quite dismissive of both the money involved and the player himself
he wants width. if we can't get the winger we want, he'll sign an attacking FB. Makes sense to me.
it is obvious the club knew he was going to submit a transfer request just to tell the fans that we are not selling, he is the one to blame.
Just sign Jose his left winger or left back.
I want United to show its financial strength here. If not now then when?

Sigh! I don't know how else to explain it to you. It does not take a lot of intelligence to understand it if you read my previous post. I will try another way, how much did we pay for Pogba again!
75 million on Lukaku, 40 million on Matic, 30 million on Lindelof, thats not bad 145 million on three players...one was from under the nose of the current champions (billionaire backed) and another was right from their first team, Conte didnt want him to leave...I cant remember us being more financially strong lately.
Playing hard ball to ramp up the fee.
You forgot the third possibility, the Barcelona board trying to justify the high fee for Dembouz by implying RM drove the price up
