Big if?

Might be completely wrong of course but there doesn't seem to be that strong an indication that we are actually attempting to/signing a striker this summer in this piece tbh

In a move that could easily have backfired on accounts of how I'm nearly 40 and quite boring now, I booked an impulsive trip to Budapest for a concert of all things! Rolling back the years! I needn't have worried, thank you Magdalena Bay for making me feel young, uncynical and capable of fun again

I'm just an old man yearning for the days when the club didn't have any social media presence tbh!

What are you talking about!? Thank you for what!? Misjudging the flight of every single aerial ball you attempted to defend? Being outmuscled by every single opponent? Pointing quite a lot tbf?

What an excellent test match. Nothing quite like test cricket on the final day when any result is possible

Something like this I reckon...

Great piece! I love the 1996-1998 mini film movement of "adults making really bad decisions and/or being really sad in the snow" with this, Fargo, The Ice Storm, The Sweet Hereafter and Affliction. We should bring it back

All with something to prove as well so their attitudes and application will be at an elite level

Arsenal, City and Chelsea in the opening 5 fixtures... Not been particularly kind for Amorim's fresh start there

Little reminder of what happened the last time we sold our best player for £80m with a little bit of "Wow, massive opportunity to reinvest the money smartly!" discourse...

100% this

The idea that we'll spend the money wisely, that we can replace his goals and assists and that losing the only player in the dressing room with any standards is something that can be coped with is really, really naive IMO.

Absolutely zero evidence that the club can be trusted with this

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to pick my mood up off the floor after investing an absurd amount of time, money and emotional energy in the dumbest habit in the world for the worst United season in my lifetime...

Back so soon?

A gorgeous day outside, perfect for spending roughly six hours sitting in a dark room watching a genuine lunatic jump off and dangle from all sorts of different vehicles, buildings and places.

Thank you to BFI IMAX for your superb programming decisions

Popemobile replaced by his buddy’s 87 Buick

Eyyy, I'm Popin' ere!

Yeah, there's been a really good atmosphere all day. Haven't seen a single bit of trouble and lots of mixing between reds and locals

Also very nice was no fucking mandatory shuttle buses to the ground, no being kept in behind at full-time and, wouldn't you know it? There was no aggro or bother whatsoever! Almost as if it is completely unnecessary eh!

That was good

May have accidentally ignored the club’s guidance on the best route to get to the ground…

The locals of Bilbao absolutely bloody love a replica Athletic Club shirt. Red and white stripes every way you turn in the city

Just got round to the first episode of The Studio - Fucking amazing stuff. "Extremely my shit" as the kids say

I quite liked Sinners but I absolutely LOVE this 😍

Hey, remember that bit where Manchester United scored three goals in the last 7 minutes of extra-time to win a European knockout tie 5-4?

That was really good wasn't it!

NEVER G NNA STOP!

What a night

That's beautiful, man

I wonder if my heart will ever recover from the damage United just put me through... never mind eh!

Tell you who is absolutely robbing a living - the person or people who's job it is to make the clothes look realistically dirty for laundry detergent adverts...

Absolutely no regard for verisimilitude whatsoever
