Injuries did him in but his mentality didn’t seem to bode well for the club. It felt like he always had to be the undisputed main man and any threat to his comfy niche, his head would drop.
Plus as the injuries accumulated, it felt like he became more risk averse to playing which also doesn’t...
His vision is still good but his body is letting him down, and I’m not sure whether I’m being too harsh on someone who has been technically dead for a few minutes and plays with a pacemaker.
It’s a miracle he’s been playing at the highest level.
I’ve been at a company which has been taken over before and what we’re seeing here is fairly standard practice where the new owners want to trim the fat and ideally hire their own people in.

I’ve also thought that when he left, the likes of...
If the Red Bull teams of Leipzig and Salzburg can compete in consecutive Champions League seasons with no issue, then it’s going to be highly hypocritical to question the INEOS involvement in United and Nice when both are in the Europa League.

Luckily for us, he’s in a United shirt already.
He’s gonna Dwight Yorke it and be playing for someone further down the table before you know it, due to the partying lifestyle and possibly achieving so much in such a short space of time that it kills his motivation.
For every good game we’ve had this season, there’s been like half dozen bad games to counter it.
For the heroic performance in the FA Cup Final, we got all our embarrassing performances in the Champions League group stage
For our good home win against West Ham, we got bad home defeats to...
