For YOUR LIFE to really change, you gotta understand this: You cannot be afraid of being seen. Your ideas, your work, your personality, your voice they’re supposed to be out in the world. Stop worrying about how everyone will perceive you. The people who are meant to find you can’t find someone who refuses to show up. Create without apologizing. Share without overthinking. Let yourself be visible. Because you’re not showing up for everyone. You’re showing up for YOUR people.
£85m for Cody Gakpo would mean City's spending since January 2025 now totals £815.4m on 19 players. If Enzo Fernandez signs before the end of the transfer window, that takes it to £935.4m (€1.1 billion).
Two years since their hearing finished in December 2024. Three & a half years since they were charged in February 2023. Their cheating, corruption & financial doping, we are too numb to what a disgrace they are.
One summer each to address attack, midfield, defense respectively. If only football were this binary and static. By the time you fix the defence the attack will need another revamp. Our recruitment model sucks. Only thing that’s changed is the age/wage profiles being targeted.
There was never this narrative when Luis Suárez, Riyad Mahrez & N’Golo Kanté won PFA POTY without playing in Europe. None of them played for Manchester United.
Of course Bruno Fernandes deserved the award. His peers voted him to win it. How is that not deserving? Every single one up for grabs went to him, wonder why.
Why should the award go to the title winners? That's quite literally what the title is for. This is for the best, most outstanding player. Not just on the best team.
Is it outstanding if it's only Premier League games.. what kind of argument is that? His goals & assists won his club the 2nd most points any individual ever has.
One of the best aspects of his season was big game performances. He scored at OT vs Chelsea & an assist at OT vs City, assists in wins at Anfield & the Emirates.
People can keep trying to pick holes but he broke what was once thought an unbreakable record. You can't 'spam' that, he created 58 more chances than anyone.
The discourse is beyond disrespectful now, but at the end of the day history will remember Bruno fondly & there's not a single thing any of them can do about it.
just keep getting up man. there will be long, heavy seasons where it feels like the whole sky is falling straight onto your shoulders and every single move you make ends in a total wreck. it will drag you into the dirt until your mouth tastes like dust and defeat. stand back up anyway. brush the mud off your knees, stare right back into the teeth of the chaos, and trust that life eventually rewards the person who outlasts the dark.
During his time at Manchester United, Ruben Amorim had a STRICT policy of demanding players to show up the day after a fixture, whether a loss, win or draw. This remained his standard practice throughout his time at the club.
After most of the matches, the players who played the majority of the match did light, low-intensity recovery work to look after their bodies. WHILE Anyone who played fewer than 45 minutes was put through a full, intense training session to keep their fitness levels up.
Incase you’re wondering why Rashford and Co didn’t like like Amorim, this is a solid reason.
The Glazers became Manchester United owners in 2005.
Malcolm Glazer first bought a small 2.9% stake in March 2003 for about £9 million.
Over the next two years he kept buying more shares.
In 12 May 2005 he bought the big 28.7% stake from Irish investors JP McManus and John Magnier and became majority owner.
By June 2005 the family had 98% of the club, took it off the stock market, and completed a £790 million takeover.
[They used a leveraged buyout, which means they loaded the club itself with hundreds of millions in DEBT… to pay for the purchase.]😡😡😡
That debt has hung over United ever since.
Malcolm died in 2014.
His six children inherited the club.
Avram and Joel Glazer became the main faces.
They took dividends out of the club, did not invest enough in the stadium or training ground for years, and oversaw a long decline after Sir Alex Ferguson retired.
Fans have protested for two decades with “Love United Hate Glazer” banners and even formed a breakaway club, FC United of Manchester.
In late 2023 / early 2024 Sir Jim Ratcliffe (INEOS) bought a 25% stake for around £1.25 billion and was given control of football operations.
The Glazer family still own the majority and remain the main owners.
Good morning pals ✨
"Is it outstanding if you only played Premier League games?" 🤔
"How many big games did he play?" 😬
Bruno Fernandes has been voted the PFA Players’ Player of the Year... but does everyone agree? 👀 🏆
