The BBC ridiculously shoehorning a rag into a feature.......


The Wunderkids team, in conjunction with BBC Sport, have come up with 11 players and presenter Steve Crossman will be joined by experts to discuss the latest inclusion, with one new player revealed each week.

But we are not going for the obvious names - the likes of Kylian Mbappe, Erling Braut Haaland or Jadon Sancho - we are looking at the players who are still on the verge of making the breakthrough into the big time.

I thought Jadon Sancho was on the verge of making the breakthrough, he's done fuck all this season to indicate he's 'made it'

Today Ten Haag is imminently imminent, but apparently those at the club are no longer interested in being in transition - their very own TH (sorry Tolm!) is brought in to inaugurate a period of transformation!

Is Neville going live on sky to tell fans of all clubs that they should be supporting the protest.

Wouldn’t put it past the little rodent.

He's 'made it' financially.
Football wise it's another story...

$1,000 invested in Manchester United on 12 August 2012 when the club debuted on the NYSE would today be worth $992. The same invested in the overall Dow Jones would be worth $2,614, Apple $7,035, Amazon $12,201 Tesla $173,149 #Glazernomics

Ten bob being hailed as the man to bring back the glory years. Not in my lifetime.

Until they change their structure at the top then I think this tweet sums it up perfectly:



Paddy Power on the money again.

50p?

If LVG couldn't get anything out of a higher-quality side then I hate to say it but Ten Hag is in for a firm kick to the gonads at Yanited. With the resources they have they may well eventually get it right, but Ten Hag has made all of his success at one of the best run clubs in the world. It's going to be eye-opening for him to say the least.

It'll still improve his profile and net him a fat payday, so I'm not surprised he's going.

What they need over at the swamp is tried-and-true British talent, not one of those upjumped foreign mercenaries. Someone like that Moyes fellow...

Oh dear.

and a club with total financial dominance in its league and with the ability to hoover up all the youth players it wants.

Paul Pogba by any chance?

 

[Gray]

Is he "A RIGHT KEEN" one?

It also tells me that he knows there is no point waiting a year to be short-listed to replace Guardiola. Good news all round.

We joke but I wouldn't put it past them to test the water for their franchise model by touring the country.

And then if they got used to it ....no old trafford ...mmmm

 

[crazyg]

And then if they got used to it ....no old trafford ...mmmm

The Trafford Globetrotters, starring Paul "Meadowlark" Pogba, Harry "Slabhead" Maguire, St. Marcus of Fishfingers, and a cast of thousands dozens to keep you amused until the end of (Fergie) time.
Coming to a stadium near you soon. Be there or be sensible and leave the area.


This PR game is a piece of piss.

Love paddy power. Get it spot on every time. Wonder if the person who does these irreverent pieces is in fact a blue?
