🚨 Paul Pogba on Cristiano Ronaldo during his darkest period :
“When the suspension news came out, my phone was full for two days… then suddenly, silence. People I thought were brothers disappeared. Agents stopped calling. Friends became busy. Football can make you feel loved… but it can also show you who’s real.”
“But one name I didn’t expect to hear from was Cristiano.”
“He didn’t call me to talk about football, training, or headlines. He asked me one thing… ‘How is your family? Are you okay mentally?’ That hit me differently.”
“A few days later he told me, ‘If you need anything anything for your family, your recovery, your life call me. Pride should never stop you from accepting help.’”
“At that moment, I wasn’t talking to Cristiano Ronaldo the superstar… I was talking to a man who understood pain, pressure, and loneliness.”
“I’ve played with champions before… but in hard times, you discover who the real ones are.”
STRONG MESSAGING about the seriousness of the cold and wind on Saturday from the National Weather Service. Power outages possible. Longest period with subzero wind chills in 30+ years.
A good day to stay inside, or bundle up big time if you have to be outside.

You wanted Amorim gone. You got it. Don’t cry when nothing changes. This club won’t heal until the fanbase stops eating its own.
Another manager sacrificed. Well done INEOS 👏
INEOS kept on a manager they had no faith in, openly canvassing Europe for his successor but then armed him with £200m to spend on players he wanted, and changed the backroom staff before sacking him anyway. They axed a sporting director, whose way of working was well established, because he did not fit in with how they wanted him to work. He warned them about selecting a head coach attached to a fixed style of play, which didn’t suit the squad and how expensive it would be to build a quality 3-4-3. They didn’t listen, insisted they believed wholeheartedly in Ruben Amorim’s approach, but then wouldn’t fully back it in the transfer market and asked him to change the tactical principles that attracted them to him. Some “best in class” decision-making…
Fuck off Gary - you havn't helped one bit and quite frankly Manchester United supporters are sick to death of hearing your opinions.
18 months ago it was "Manchester United need a manager with a system"
Now its "Manchester United need a manager that fits the DNA of the club"
How's about Manchester United need the Glazers to fully fuck off?
How about stop telling Manchester United what they need when you can't even sort out Salford?
How's about Manchester United need you and your shitty employers to stop obsessing and over analysing everything the Utd manager does?
How about being fair in your punditry and treating managers of United how you treat managers of Spurs, Liverpool and just about every other club?
Just a thought?
Troy Deeney on Amorim's sacking.
"One of shock. I'm a big Amorim fan. He's done things wrong but he's tried to create a foundation for Man Utd to be long-term successful. Getting rid of Rashford, Garnacho. Player power overrule it."
Dropping facts!
