    Interesting that the club seem to practice “new joiner buddies” kinda like how big corporates have. Havertz has Jorginho, Declan has Rambo and Timber I think has Leo.

    After all the shit PR United have been getting about the state of Carrington, they did a little collab video with Unicef to show what the inside really looks like.

    Inside Manchester United Training Facility at Carrington

    It’s unsurprisingly not as shit as Ronaldo made it out to be. But it still isn’t great for a club as rich as they are. I can understand why some people say its like a facility stuck in time a little.

    Soooo I just found out

    The stadium for today’s match has a capacity of 82k

    And it’s been sold out

    Here’s hoping it’s a louder library

      There was like 2 mil watching on NBC/Peacock last time we played them, so it’s probably gonna be a big enough match that people who actually care show up.

    This is a good chance for the lads to spend some time together, do some training, and play some games. Arteta will not release the line ups until an hour before, because he takes everything seriously.

    I don’t really care about the outcome of this game, no one hurt, a few goals for some people. Man U fans crying, I guess. But not really because it is preseason.
