🚨🚨🎙️| Sir Alex Ferguson’s text message to PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi after PSG beat Arsenal in the Champions League final:
“Well done, it was a tough night for you, but you played against a boring team that did nothing but defend.”

I didn’t want to see Henry’s assist record go and it still might not but seeing someone I rate and a friend do it would be good! Since he left Sporting and come Prem his consistency is something else….many one season wonders who get great numbers but this guy is special to be able to keep doing it at a club with big pressure, Let me see Bruno do his thing today 👀
Protects the ball with his arms and body, rides contact with great balance, and still finds the control to sell that subtle feint before shifting inside.
That last chop… I have no words for that.
Maguire's organisation and Mainoo's ability in tight spaces being missed but Leeds have had a lot of play down the right in Dalot's absence too. Three of the best performers under Carrick not starting and you can tell.
@Ankaman616 @ojdmxnn As a fan with my ancestral heritage. It’s so disappointing. You become accustom to assuming the worst. But I was enjoying the blissful ignorance ⚽️ & UTD gave me from reality. Sadly that thin veil is removed 🙄
Playing against a team content to defend deep was always going to be a test for #MUFC under Carrick.
United too slow, allowing West Ham to get into shape. Needs more speed at turnovers, runs in behind, men in the box to cause some chaos.
Dear Michael Carrick, I am writing to inform you of what to expect on Sunday evening.
This is not the same Arteta you defeated 3-2 in 2021 as a caretaker manager of ManchesterUnited.
I wish to remind you that this is an evolved version of Arteta, who has gained experience and insight.
What you will witness on Sunday is a display of intensity, pressure, and determination that may unsettle your team.
Mikel Arteta is an individual who takes losses seriously, and given his past encounter with you, he is likely to be highly motivated.
The Emirates Stadium will be electric, and our team will apply significant pressure on your squad.
Finally, I suggest that playing a low block may not be effective, as we are likely to capitalize on set pieces, and attempting to attack us could result in conceding goals.
So,you choose wisely.
Arsene Wenger on Man United: “Where Arsenal lacked was patience & technical cohesion which #mufc had. The way they play is convincing. Usually it’s the home team who win at 2-2. I must congratulate Carrick- he has created something.”
