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.
So Sky are saying United and Chelsea were chasing Aurier, but he's chosen to move to Spurs because of Levy and Pochettino
They'd say anything to sound interesting, tbf.
But is it really laughable that a player would like to be a part of Pochettinos project at Tottenham? I actually like the thought, that the bigger club isn't neccesarily more attractive.
Really? Bigger more successful organisation would like to employ you and pay you double of what the smaller, unsuccessful company has offered and you'd choose the latter? That makes no sense to me.
City actually needs another forward, strange as it may sound. Today's elite sides use about six out and out forwards for quality in the first eleven and depth on the bench to be able to handle multiple competitions.
Right now City has Aguero, Jesus, Sterling, Mane, with one of Bernado, De Bryune and silva pushing forward enough. Alexis will be a very good addition to them in that regard. Nevertheless, there is this saying in football transfer circles, ' A super star player is never a luxury buy'. Alexis will always be much more than 'kicking a rival team in the balls'. We know he will add goals, assists and star power to the City squad.
Draxler's destined to regress into his Wolfsburg form at Arsenal, any attacking player should be wary of stagnating. Well apart from Ozil who's in his element with the lack of pressure.
Chelsea have already been beaten to a lot of their targets. Would be a disaster for them if they miss out on Llorente as well who they've been chasing all summer.
Sky Sports reporter - "I think it's time to speak to our sources at City to try and get some clarification about Alexis Sanchez"
As if they wouldn't have already done that at 11 am on transfer deadline day.
In other words, they haven't got a fecking clue what is going on and are just chatting bullshit as per.

Not sure it's a disaster for anybody to miss out on LLorente.
Nooooooooooo!! This will be a player we're looking at in a few months and wishing we could prize away from a rival....
It's a player Conte has wanted for ages.
He'd be a back up and he scored 15 goals last season, not exactly the worst option.
Can't see it happening. I think our window is done and dusted. Jose would be in his couch drinking and enjoying seeing such chaotic approach of other clubs.
Llorente, Drinkwater, Mahrez, Barkley and 'the Ox'.
Jesus, hardly inspiring is it.
Glad we got it done early.

Lads, I know we're all slightly disappointed we won't get some mental deadline day signing, but when we get Griezmann in January, it'll all be worth it.
Jose is in London, IT'S ONNNNNNNN!
Probably going to be disappointed when he turns up at Barca
Its MahrONNNNNN
Why would Barca go for Griezmann? Besides, he's bezzies with Pogbae, his brother is a Utd fan and he idolised Beckham. You know he's getting that number 7.
Looks like this will be the busiest deadline day in years! So many of the 'top teams' involved with many players. Wish we could add another player too, but I'm not going to complain if we don't.
You know Griezmann would be cup tied for the Champions League if he comes in January.
Not going to happen mate, most likely next summer.
If mahrez is going to Chelsea I hope we can get Wilian
He would either be here now, or we would have signed a pre deal to buy him, no way we take the risk of waiting for other clubs to come in January.
Barca will still want a "prestige" signing, I don't think he is that bothered, and wouldn't most players prefer to play in sunny spain with Messi and Suarez?

Out of interest, how do you know this?
feck him. Let him go there and win the losers cup every season.
In fact I still expect Griezmann to extend his deal, improving his wages and increasing the sell on clause as a favour to Atleti
He literally just signed a new deal increasing his wages though.
He was there yesterday, not sure if he still is today tbh.
Good! Hope he stays there for the rest of his career.
@Redcy
Maybe he wants to play with Rojo and Lingard?
See how easy it is to make stuff up? I can do it too.
Maybe we should wait and see if Barca wants to spend 120m euros they don't have after a summer of spending 250m on Coutinho and Dembele.
Where would he play? Bench Messi?

He was pictured there yesterday but he tends to go to London to spend time with his family.
this already happened.
