Been looking up the stand 100 (where the plane landed at Manchester airport) and it seems it is a drive-thru stand. I'm guessing this is a short stay stand mainly used for fuel turn arounds as someone else has already said it could have been. Although it could be used as a quick drop off for a world class striker to enter the country unnoticed by the press and sign for the world's richest football club. Why would he need to go back? He may have brought all the things he needs with him. Just a thought...
