Was that an off-the-cuff remark?

Yes. Spontaneity has always been my strong suit

I think he's been collared, mate!

No need to get shirty :)

659m pogba shirts sold at £75 each, minus 100m transfer fee =£49,325,000,000
Possibly the shrewdest bit of business ever in world football?
(This is a pisstake before you lurking thick cunts get giddy!)

Button it up

Let's hope you're helplessly crying at the end of the Derby, mate.

Take a draw mate, still think we're work in progress.

Take a draw mate, still think we're work in progress.

I'll echo that.

Those rags aren't good with the sarcasm are they? Must be the language barrier.

(Also a piss take you thick cunts)

No double standards from the Sun:

Do the Press build them up to knock them down? The Sun writes about Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford who “proves he’s a top guy after buying his mum £800,000 home”.

The story continues:

“Manchester United’s latest hero Marcus Rashford has moved his mum and two brothers to a luxury £800,000 house in the leafy Wythenshawe suburb of the city. The English striker, 18, grew up in that area of Manchester and was quick to give his mum a more comfortable pad after bursting onto the scene last year and earning himself a bumper pay day of £25,000-a-week.”







Buying your mum a big house is lovely. But he’d better not get too rich or fail to score for England.

When Raheem Sterling showed everyone the house he’d bought for his mother, the Manchester City player was castigated by the Sun. The front-page headline screamed “Obscene Raheem”, noting “England failure steps off plane and insults fans by showing off blinging house”. A source opined: “Any normal person would hang their heads in shame after how they performed in France but these guys come home and show off about how rich they are.”

A “friend of Sterling” told MEN:

“Raheem and his family are really upset that the fact he’s bought a nice house for his mum is being used to hammer him by the media and make him the scapegoat for England’s failure… He bought her the house as a thank you for all her support and help. Now to have his mum’s private life and house being mocked and thrown into the public spotlight has left him furious and frustrated.”

Enjoy it while it lasts, Marcus, you hero.

What really riles me about the Raheem Story, is the only one showing of his mum's house, is the fucking Sun not the son.
