🚨🚨🎙️| Patrice Evra on Sir Alex Ferguson's team talk before the Champions League final in 2008:
"Ferguson said: 'I've already won. We don't even need to play this game.' We were like: What is he talking about? The game hasn't even started.
Then Ferguson turned to me, 'Look at Patrice,' he said. 'He's got 24 brothers and sisters. Imagine what his mother had to do to put food on the table!'
Then he turned to Wayne Rooney: 'Look at Wayne. He grew up in one of the toughest part of Liverpool.' Then he turned to Park Ji-sung; 'Look at Ji, he's come all the way from South Korea.'
As the boss talks about our stories, we began to realise that he was referring to a fellowship. We were not just a football team - we were people from every corner of the world, from all kinds of cultures and races and religions. And now we were there, together in a dressing room in Moscow, fighting for a common cause. Through football, we had become brothers.
'THIS is my victory' Ferguson said. We all got goosebumps. Then we went out and won the Champions League. That's Manchester United. That's why I love this game."

The Beckham doc reminded me of why I fell in love with Utd because of him.
You realize why they defend each other ferociously as when Scholes, Neville & Keane stood by Solskjær, and you've to respect it. I loved that, personally.
My hate for the current state of the club grew.
Why can everyone else have an opinion on Twitter ( X ) on football / players but not weird for footballers to tweet anything other than ‘good to get the three points thanks for the support’ is that what you lot really wanna hear?
UK citizens are furious Sadiq Khan is installing ULEZ (Ultra low emission zones) recognition cameras throughout London. Those who can’t afford electric vehicles will be fined £12 pounds ($15) every time they drive past them.
Citizens are fighting back by taking them down as soon as they’re installed
