He’s not even a boyhood Utd fan, the way Gary Neville and Paul Scholes are yet, the difference between Rio and the class of 92 members bar Becks is night and day
🚨 WATCH: Nigel Farage is repeatedly heckled by MPs as he calls on Keir Starmer to end "two-tier policing"
Starmer: "His response has been to appeal for rage. That’s his response to a father who lost his son & asked for this not to happen... it shows exactly who he is"

This footage is from The Overlap's Stick to Football Christmas Special. It's bait - & that's the point here - they will happily do bait us. Everything & everyone is content to them. That's the aim of the game.
Neville spread a lie about Bruno Fernandes years ago & never apologised for it, Keane misquoted Fernandes on the assist record yesterday & won't apologise for that either. They don't care about the players or the club.
That's fine if they don't, their choice - but let's not pretend they see this as anything other than business. Their producers get them to do this & they play along.
This is getting pathetic now. When Guardiola took over Rijkaard at Barcelona did Enrique and Figo spout from their Ivory Towers or let time tell if it would work out?
Every day it's hot air for clicks.
Nicky Butt wanted to run United. When that job wasn’t offered to him, he left.
This take on Licha vs Haaland is embarrassing to say the least. Sure, Haaland could dominate next weekend as he dominates over so many other defenders. But, Licha has a good record against Haaland, both at United and Ajax. If Nicky Butt doesn’t do any research and then proceeds to shame a player in public, it says more about his character.
I wonder if executives at big clubs are this ill informed about football matter. If Butt wants a top job he needs to learn more and be humble.
The mf should hold that. What annoys me most is the patience shown to Wirtz and the complete lack of it for Sesko. They come from the same league and are roughly the same age. Wirtz cost a lot more than Sesko, and both joined two of the biggest clubs in England. So why is one written off while the other is given time?
Why isn’t that same energy directed at Isak and Gyokeres ? Isak arrived for a British-record fee at Liverpool, is Premier League-proven, and has only one or two goals. They’ll blame injuries, but Sesko has also been injured. Gyökeres is older than Sesko and has the same number of non-penalty goals, with less involvement in build-up play, yet he doesn’t receive the same level of criticism or hostility.
Paul Scholes do a disservice to fans as a pundit. For all of his talents as a player, he is truly clueless as in the media. Your job is to educate, not to misinform. The primary role of the media is to teach their audience.
Gianluigi Donnarumma was on £375k per week at PSG & he wanted £475k to move to England. Meanwhile, writing off Senne Lammens at Manchester United because of his fee? Madness & utter lunacy.
Instead of being helpful, these opinions are genuinely harmful - there are idiots who take this stuff as gospel.
