I mean possibly. You never know with them lot. Ain't Goldbridge who's got the biggest United channel by far on YouTube a brummie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Has been revealed that Mourinho who United have brainwashed the media and the fanbase into saying was finished. Apparently he had Perisic signed and everything agreed but the moneymen at United cancelled the deal as the recruitment team didnt think he was worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone knows that Perisic is the one player in world football that can transform a team into a free-flowing modern one plus stop managers from falling out with everyone and throwing them under the bus.

Or, United just didn’t think Perisic was that good, or that they didn’t think he was the right cultural fit, or they didn’t feel that he represented any resale value, or he failed a medical, or………… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He plays for a Conte team so his physical fitness is very good. Poor club management Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More often now young people support the club of a specific player. I know some Polish lads who now support Barcelona, was Bayern Munich because of Lewandowski. Same for Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar, Haaland etc. They’ll follow the club their favourite player plays for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was part of the speech the juve director gave on the state of modern football following the collapse of the ESL And he's 100% correct... Where he was wrong was the demand that only certain clubs of their choosing deserve the finances to sign these players 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really care, but it is funny listening to the clowns at work/football arguing about who's best, Liverpool or Manure, in their Brummie accents. Safe to say I'm always reminding them they've never been to their respective shit-holes apart from a stadium tour, and that they're plastics But I'm sad like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewiek2 Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 I used to work with a lad in Bournemouth who was full on Manure obsessed. Would wear the full kit for 5-a-sides, gave it the family link etc. Asked him when he last went to OT, had never been in his life to a game, home or away.

I'm convinced they weirdly go above and beyond to to try and prove they're proper fans and not the glory hunting words removed we all know they are, they can't just fit in to normal fan behaviour because they're not normal fans I once played 5 aside with a kid in full Liverpool kit, including training jacket, who sang the mo salah chant when he scored He was a proper soemthing alright. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
