Not a fu*king chance :-)

I think many of us have probably joined a utd fans forum and engaged in a bit of trolling like this at some point. Well played Omar.

Smart move from Berrada.

Show off ambition but temper expectation by giving a date in the future.

Can't see it even then!

Sigh.

Appointing Berrada is the equivalent of the governors of a shit, underperforming High School with shit teachers delivering shit exam results year on year appointing the Head of PE or Drama from a successful, well performing High School who has next to no experience in a real leadership role as it's Headteacher and thinking you're going to get top results only to be told by your new Head that it's not going to happen after all once he's signed his big fat contract and got his feet under the table.
The "what the fuck have I done" look on his face during their recent home drubbing at the hands of their other arse cheek said it all.
Well done Omar!

These sort of grandiose announcements seem to be a thing now scruffy Jim is in charge. Yet on the pitch nothing changes.

Man Utd reveal first pics of new Old Trafford in 'biggest regeneration ever'

MANCHESTER UNITED fans have been given their first glimpse of what the club’s revamped Old Trafford site could look like. And that could feature a brand-spanking new 100,000-seater stadium. S…

I love this! so we are expected to believe that one of the most successful British businessman ever is going to spend £2bn (of his own money, after wanting the government to pay) for a stadium of which he will only own 25%!

He paid £2bn to the Glazers for 25%! The glazers paid £715m for 100% without spending a penny.

So according to the Stretford massive, Sir Jim is going to spend £2bn to increase the value of the company he couldn't afford to buy outright in the first place

It's the equivalent of someone putting a deposit down on a house, then paying for a loft conversion (that Gary Neville announces at the Labour party conference, in Liverpool) to make the original owners even richer!

They honestly don't realise that this new stadium (that the glazers will no spend a penny on) will be their biggest cash cow, and give them more reasons not to sell up!

You thought they would have learnt from Michael Knighton!

From the BBC football page Gossip column for tomorrow - I guess thats a "them" problem

Manager Erik ten Hag is on borrowed time at Manchester United, who are actively looking at candidates to replace him. (Teamtalk), external

Former Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer would "say yes every day of the week" if asked to return to Old Trafford as manager. (ESPN)

This reminds of the time when I was 27 and said in 3 and half years i'd be married to Scarlett Johannson.

Till her head fell off.

Last night the commentators were amazed that Mainoo became the first ever England player to play in a final for his country before he played in a European completion (Europa league) for his club!

They didn't mention that Rico Lewis won the Treble before he was capped!

Rico is 6 months older than Mainoo!
Rico has won 7 trophies in 2 and half years, (that's more than united have since Bacon Face left)!
