🚨 Marcus Rashford on why he chose the No. 14 shirt:
“When I came back, some assumed I’d be thinking about shirt numberz. Honestly… I wasn’t. I told the club, ‘Give me whatever number you want. I just want to play football again.’
Then Jesse called. He asked,,‘What number are you taking?’ I said, ‘I don’t know yet.’ He replied… ‘Bro… don’t tell me you’ve forgotten my shirt already.’ I asked, ‘Fourteen?’
He said, ‘Remember when we were kids? We always spoke about keeping United where it belongs. I couldn’t finish that story… maybe you still can.’ I just went quiet. Then he said one last thing.
‘If you boys win the league….. just turn around during the celebrations and let me see that No. 14 one more time.’ I smiled. From that moment, I didn’t need to think about another shirt number”
🚨Hey, Elliot Anderson, just a reminder that football didn’t start in 2011, mate.
When you’re done talking, have a look at the trophy cabinet.
P.S. See you at Old Trafford on 13 September.

🚨🚨This Manchester derby was an occultic show; when City started challenging United. See intensity! Look at Rio Ferdinand, Wayne Rooney and van Persie 😭
🚨🎙️Defoe on Bruno Fernandes getting talked about more than Arsenal:
“Bruno Fernandes getting talked about more than Arsenal winning the premier league after 22 years is very funny… Arsenal waited for this after many years just for one individual to overshadow them.
Just imagine winning the league in 22 years, and one individual out of no where breaks an all time record and all of a sudden, he is the one getting talked about more… that’s how big Manchester United is.
I’m not saying Arsenal is a small club…” (Laughs)
🚨🎙️ Paul Scholes on Jack Grealish being spotted passed out at a bar:
🗣️ “People are quick to laugh at things like this, but they don’t know what’s going on behind closed doors. Jack moved to Manchester City for a huge fee, massive expectations, and things didn’t really go the way many thought they would.
Then you’re sold to Everton, and suddenly the narrative around your career changes. That’s not easy for any player to deal with, especially when you’ve been under the spotlight for years.
We all see the football side, but players have personal battles too. It might not even be football-related — pressure, criticism, expectations, life changes… it all adds up.
Instead of mocking him, maybe people should understand that sometimes players are human first. Not everything you see like this is just about attitude — sometimes it’s someone going through a difficult period.”
🚨Danny Welbeck on why he did the “Siuuu” celebration:
🗣️ Welbeck: “I’ve scored against Liverpool… now Chelsea. Maybe I don’t score for Manchester United anymore, but I still bleed for the club. If what I do helps them reach the Champions League, I’m happy with that. Not every legend has to still be inside the building.”
“And yeah, the celebration… that’s Cristiano Ronaldo’s. I did it with meaning. I figured the United fans deserved to see a proper academy lad hit the Siuuu, instead of someone who forgot what a privilege it is to wear that shirt.”
“If Alejandro Garnacho wants to take it how he wants, that’s up to him… but some of us never forget where we come from or what that badge really means.” #mufc
