Casemiro after Christmas.

Never listen to these fuckwits if they ever try talk down United or Carrick.

United spending £70m on a full back is the worse lie I've ever seen.

@indykaila @ManUtd Nonce

Exclusive 💣 Manchester United have submitted a bid for Maxi Araujo. We understand a bid of around £69m has been submitted. Mateus Fernandes’s agent is to meet #mufc officials this week, according to club sources. Mateus Fernandes wants @ManUtd move.

@antpaulbloom Excellent player. Could be a nice addition.

Alex Scott.

£8 Camden Pale ales getting chucked about now.

@BackIndeed Scott and Kroupi are class.

@_Compo Scott, Kroupi, Rayan, Truffert, Senesi

3/4 Bournemouth players you wouldn't say no to for your squad.

City would have won the title if it wasn't for this man. Doomed when he came out to play.

@cantseyy Bald caps on. Texting Bonehead pictures of themselves saying how much they look like him. Jonny Marr playing guitar for no reason at HT.

I wonder what weird shit the Gallagher brothers have lined up for Sunday

@The_Tman10 Hibs and Aberdeen don't have access to probably the most successful and sophisticated database in terms of securing hidden talent the sport has ever seen. Bit of a difference.

Hearts have shown with around a 300k net spend that they can challenge for a league title. Must give hope to others like Hibs & Aberdeen and show that it’s not impossible.

Best gig in the world being part of City's legal team. Overtime galore.

@henrywinter The FA Cup was certainly entertaining boss 👍

Pep Guardiola’s legacy? Look all around from park pitches to Wembley. So many teams and coaches have been influenced by Guardiola. More teams playing out from the back, full-backs inverting into midfield, inviting the press, passing through it, attacking the space. Teams evolving. City won the league in 2021 with false 9s. Then a real 9 arrived, Erling Haaland, as Guardiola tweaked and twisted again. Mixing it up, possession, possession, then going long to Haaland if needed. Mixing it up, possession in the centre, then releasing flying wingers Jeremy Doku and Antoine Semenyo. Guardiola’s legacy? Look at the coaches who learned from him. Enzo Maresca, his likely successor. And Mikel Arteta, Xabi Alonso, Vincent Kompany, Xavi and Luis Enrique. Look at his impact on England. Nico O’Reilly starts at left-back. Phil Foden developed early by Guardiola, not sent out on loan, embedded in the first team early. He improved John Stones, Rico Lewis and Kyle Walker (who is now retired from England). Guardiola gave James Trafford a run in the cups. He gave Cole Palmer a chance before he craved more starts and went to Chelsea. Others have also moved on after a spell under Guardiola’s enlightened tutelage: Morgan Rogers, Liam Delap, James McAtee, Taylor Harwood-Bellis. Guardiola has undeniably enjoyed huge resources to call upon during his decade at City. He was able to draft in Marc Guehi and Semenyo in January. The sport still awaits the verdict of the 115 charges of rule breaches, charges which City deny vigorously. But Guardiola's achievements deserve celebrating: 591 games, 416 wins, 20 trophies. And so to the future. If it is confirmed that Guardiola is leaving after Sunday’s final game of the season, at home to Aston Villa, he will be greatly missed. Maresca is his mooted successor. He knows the club, knows the way Guardiola worked, and can seek to continue that work. It’s a relatively young squad that Guardiola has built. It’s a continuity job. Surely, though, Kompany would have been the man they really wanted. Club legend. But currently embedded at Bayern Munich. Guardiola's legacy is encouraging innovation, total commitment, near obsession with his work and playing attacking football. This City side are entertainers, playing 4-2-4 at times in the FA Cup final on Saturday. Even if the league is beyond him, the title seized by a coach he helped develop, Guardiola leaves as a winner, with two more trophies this season - and countless memories. Good luck to Guardiola in whatever he does next. #MCFC

@joe5talin There's no issues players celebrating a goal and having a laugh in what was essentially a game that didn't matter. He was being a prick.

@_Compo So? You essentially won every premier league title in the 90s except for a couple of years when Arsenal and Blackburn got involved. United now are a cup team. He'd probably still sneer even if you were top and doing it but he'd have less of a point

A truly insufferable prick. Can't believe any United have time for him.

@joe5talin He was in the same team as Sharpe, Giggs and Ince who did dance routines when they scored.

@_Compo I understand what you mean, but it's part of his wider segment talking about standards at United in general. Like everyone essentially playing just for Fernandes to beat the assist record. It's very much the kind of thing Crystal Palace would do

@joe5talin It's not that deep is it. It's just players celebrating a goal.

@_Compo He's not angry, I think he's just disappointed in the modern standards at United. You've become Liverpool of the 2010s. "Next year is our year!" Always have decent players, but not much of a serious attitude towards winning the biggest trophies

@joe5talin Yes playing celebrating goals and having fun is truly something to get angry about.

@_Compo He's spot on tbh

@sarm0161 Imagine Robson or Bruce acting like this.

@_Compo Hear hear.
