Long read. Pep Guardiola needed around £450M in his first two seasons at Manchester City (including a £57M signing in his second January window) just to get players capable of playing his style of football. Mikel Arteta spent close to three seasons at Arsenal before his team began to consistently dominate games. Todd Boehly invested over £1B at Chelsea before they managed to win two cup titles. Meanwhile, Manchester United fans and the media expect a new manager to walk in and perform instant miracles. What’s the point of a rebuild if we don’t have the patience to see it through? Why heap pressure on ourselves when the last 10 years haven’t exactly been better? Some fans argue Ole was better, some say Jose Mourinho, others Erik ten Hag. But let’s be honest, we complained bitterly under each of them. With Ole, we only came alive in second halves, living off constant comebacks. Jose sacrificed attractive football just to grind out points, and people still wanted him out. Erik tried his way, and the same happened. Now Ruben Amorim is sticking to his philosophy, and rightly so. What’s the point of changing it if professional footballers at Manchester United can’t adapt? These same players go away on international duty, play in completely different systems, and give everything for their national teams. Yet they won’t do the same for the club that gives them a platform to be seen by billions. You don’t need tactical genius to understand that United should never go to Grimsby and look like Grimsby, while Grimsby look like Manchester United. These players couldn’t adapt to Erik ten Hag’s system, couldn’t adapt to Ole’s, couldn’t adapt to Jose’s. Even Louis van Gaal gave up early on. The truth is, we need a cultural reset at this club. Constantly swapping managers every two seasons will never fix the deeper problems. Of course, I’ll still complain, rant, and feel disappointed, that’s only natural. But for me, it’s Ruben Amorim till the end. We started the season with two of the worst goal keeping duo in the league, we went the entire pre season with a striker we were going to sell. It was constantly reported that Ruben Amorim wanted an athletic midfielder which he never got. And we are here wanting an instant change with just 250M euro spent. Lol

For every dark night, there's a brighter day

@WrestlingHumble Bronson Reed? Y'all keep forgetting about that dude

Feel bad for Dawkins because Logan getting injured means he has to be taken out so that the feud with the Vision remains 2 on 2 for Seth & Montez.

Those close to Enzo Amore say some promoters are being told that he will not be taking bookings in the future that he regularly would. - Those promoters are operating on the assumption that Enzo is headed to WWE and will be signing there. (via @FightfulSelect)

Mister @cesc4official 👏👏👏

@WrestlingHumble Who is Liv Morgan?

Did you guys know Liv Morgan is a wrestler who’s a world champion?

I think with Logan Paul out, it is absolutely the best time to get Bronson Reed back to action. #wweraw

So much for an alliance between these two 😐 @WWERollins | @MontezFordWWE

Ask this girl why she single she been typing for 9 mins im good love

@reigns_era Does Triple H know about this?

LA Knight says he's coming for Roman and his World Title #WWERaw

I don't understand why Jacob wouldn't know what a tribal combat is

@WrestleOps Disband the vision

WWE has officially announced that Logan Paul has suffered a torn tricep and as such will be out for months.

Ede Oloko scored his 15th goal in the Latvian Virsliga as his club, Tukum 2000 defeated FC RFS by 3-1. Ede Oloko is a key target of clubs in Russia already.

EUROPA LEAGUE was never the dream. Not because I didn’t want it. Because if I’m being honest, I never thought it was possible. What kid would? Especially when 12 years ago I was playing non league football in the Ryman Premier and Conference South, just trying to stay alive in the game. What kid dreams about Europe when, two weeks into the off season, his dad has to tell him he’s been released by Watford F.C. over the phone? I was heartbroken. My dad looked at me and said: “What are we doing tomorrow?” To which I replied with the words he’d drilled into me my whole life: “We’re training, Dad.” So we trained. Every single day. My dad emailed every EFL club asking for an opportunity. One club replied. One. That was all I needed. An opportunity. @WealdstoneFC and @wwfcofficial , I’ll always be indebted to you. Then came the move to @SunderlandAFC . A massive club. A massive opportunity. And I couldn’t wait to prove myself. But 45 minutes into my debut… hooked. “Rabbit caught in headlights. Waste of money. Get rid.” Then came the Championship. “He’s not good enough for this level.” Then the Premier League. “Let’s give him a debut and then get rid of him.” I understood the doubt. I’ve faced it my whole career. And truthfully, you doubt yourself too at times. But I’ve always tried to live by one mindset: Outwork your doubt. You don’t always need to see the full journey. You just need to take the next step. Then the next one. And then another. Even when social media tells you you’re not good enough. Even when the voice inside your own head whispers the same thing. Keep working. Keep learning. Keep showing up. Because sometimes the places you end up are bigger than anything your younger self could’ve ever imagined. To any young player reading this, don’t put a ceiling on yourself too early. You genuinely have no idea where this game and life can take you. And to the boys… thank you. You removed the glass ceiling I’d placed on myself. What a team. What a club. What a fanbase. Sunderland… rocking all over Europe ❤️🤍 And in the words of Granit Xhaka: “This is just the beginning.”

My baby

@MartienBall Y'all pay much attention to them so they think they relevant. Stop quoting their podcast and let them speak to empty audience

I refused to believe it at first but I’m convinced now most United legends don’t actually want the club to succeed… just sad to see.

@FrankEra_ Baleba belongs to the Tchouameni/Anderson category

I assume it’s going to be Ederson, Fernandes and then one of Anderson/Tchouameni. We won’t sign Baleba if we get Ederson.

@SullyTalkz The last two serie a players who wanted us badly turned out to be shit

Understand #MUFC have had a delegation in Italy with talks being held with Atalanta for Éderson with United now closing in on a deal. Expectation from all parties that an agreement will be reached soon. 26 yo rejected every other offer and told his agent he only wants United 🇧🇷🔜
