🚨 Official: new leading agency into football world has born — Gersh. Leading agencies in Mainland Europe, You First, and the UK-based PLG, will now operate under the Gersh brand, creating a global football powerhouse. Tyler Alexander-Arnold will become Head of the UK division. Top players such as Trent Alexander-Arnold, Fabián Ruiz, Alexia Putellas, Andrew Robertson, Jarrod Bowen and Christoph Baumgartner are now part of Gersh. Here we go ⚽

Would entirely depend on Rashford though and how he left things behind the scenes, but can imagine Carrick would be keen on at least discussing it with him.

I personally would welcome Rashford back at United, but on the basis he maintains the OOP work rate he’s demonstrated at Barca and potentially signs a new deal with reduced wages. He could be an excellent experienced ST and LW option and offers something different to Cunha.

@utdHarryy By the looks of it, he can cover large spaces, track runners, he's a decent passer and adds some height which we lack with Case now leaving. Just looks solid and not as flashy as some of the Prem targets.

Our recruitment/data team must see something we don’t. Hopefully it pays off

@Vararse_ @paritosh_bhide We have a smallish Pro Breeze portable AC unit for our flat. Absolutely worth every penny. Gets our bedroom down to 17 degrees pretty quickly.

@paritosh_bhide Nope. UK houses are built to keep heat in asw so it’s way worse

Don't you guys have ACs in your house?

@RyanEva49212846 @UnfilteredSoccr Came here to say this 👆

@UnfilteredSoccr Literally should have ended the video after Joe Cole

Don't speak until you hear a player better than... Clint Dempsey.

Joselu and Dani Carvajal are brothers-in-law, they are both married to twin sisters 😆

@FabrizioRomano They just can't resist buying shit players from France.

🚨🔵 Chelsea agree deal to sign Valentín Barco, here we go! 🇦🇷 Agreement in place with the player as RC Strasbourg will let Barco go after impressive improvement this year. #CFC ready to proceed for the Argentinian midfielder from June.

@underscore__ken @__scottsaunders Allison, Salah, Kulusevski, Romero, Califiori, Tonali, Thiaw…

@__scottsaunders Nothing blossoms from that league....tell me one player from serie A who does well in the prem let alone Atalanta..amad, Joshua, rasmus? That league is not competitive at all

Almost like people jumped to conclusions on Ederson a little bit too fast

@AliceTalksFooty I’m suprised at how naive ppl are re Ederson. He’s got 1 year left on his deal and is clearly available for much cheaper than the 40m being mentioned, probably closer to £20m. He’ll be a cracking 3rd mid signing, yet ppl are acting like he’s our main target.

This is the Delap of midfielders this summer. Wilcox wants him because he's the cheapest. Mateus, Baleba, J. Gomes, Anderson, Scott, Tonali, Tchouameni all far better players.

@BBCSport @NizaarKinsella We all panned Southgate for not picking in-form players and this guy is picking Spence, Burn, Henderson and Ivan Toney in 2026. Does he think he’s going into a relegation battle or a World Cup?

It's official 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Thomas Tuchel's 26-man England squad for this summer's World Cup is locked in 🔒

@Czooba Big fan of Alvarez but I don’t see him coming to United, and would rather upgrade Maguire + get a few more CMs in.

If we’re serious about winning the PL and UCL, this should be Man United XI next campaign

@jonnyhill321 @DevildetailsMU Vivek reports to Wilcox, Wilcox is the overall Director of Football, he either approves and we buy them or doesn’t and we don’t, you can’t just cherry pick transfers.

@mrmattjamess @DevildetailsMU Wilcox didn't want sesko or lammens ,vivell pushed them deals

If Manchester United land Tchouameni and Fernandes we’ll have the best midfield in the league, haven’t said that since in a long long time!

Mateus Fernandes, Carlos Baleba and Sandro Tonali all not at the World Cup and will presumably looking to get the future sorted ready for preseason #MUFC

@jonnyhill321 @DevildetailsMU Neither were Dorgu, Sesko or Lammens and we still got them

@DevildetailsMU He's not prem proven so that fucktard Wilcox won't want him

On behalf of their client, Zara Sultana, Bindmans Media and Information Law Practise Group requires that I publish the following statement on X, and that such statement must be clearly visible and pinned to my profile for a continuous period of no less than 24 hours: “On 30 March 2026, I published a post on my X account addressed to Zarah Sultana in which I stated that she encourages and incites violence and is friends with terrorists. Those statements are false. I was wrong and offer my sincere apologies to Ms Sultana for the harm and distress caused to her.” It is my very great pleasure to do this, and I reiterate my sincere and repeated offer to meet with Miss Zara Sultana in person to resolve our differences.

@LegacySiu For everyone saying Varane, it’s not - as the post suggests the player has played with Rashford at Villa not United. And the answer is Asensio.

Guess the player Very Hard

@TheAthleticFC Who, this guy? He seems so nice?…. x.com/profootball_st…

Tensions have been rising behind the scenes at Real Madrid since their Champions League elimination by Bayern Munich. With Barcelona to come in El Clasico on Sunday, there is a downbeat mood at the Bernabeu — not helped by two dramatic flashpoints, including a training-ground row between Kylian Mbappe and a coach. @GuillermoRai_ and @MarioCortegana explain. 🔗 nytimes.com/athletic/72524…

@fc_mossman Tbf to Carrick, he was brought in to win games and get CL. He wasn't brought in to implement a style of play or specific tactic - the objective was to get us higher in the table and under no circumstance drift into mid-table, which was where we were headed under Amorim...

Some observations about Manchester United's underlying data this season under Ruben Amorim and under Michael Carrick: - Amorim's United were better by almost every measure except results - its known Amorim had a better xG differential, but there's a response I'm seeing that his xG is inflated by trailing game states, which is incorrect; in neutral scorelines (the match is tied), Amorim and Carrick have nearly the same xG differential per match... Carrick's Utd are producing more xG, while Amorim's were conceding less - even non-xG or xT events like high turnovers forced/conceded and deep entries forced/conceded all favor Amorim's Utd If through the traditional data analysis lens Amorim's Utd looks better, the question flow becomes: Do I care about the underlying data? - If no, thanks for reading this far, my account and this post probably aren't for you, feel free to quote this calling me a nerd or leave a reply like "I ain't reading all that"... it helps with the algorithm :) Are there other data angles where Carrick's United does look better than Amorim's, and if so, are they also reasons why other successful teams are successful? - Still here? Awesome. If there are alternative angles I'm not considering, I'd love to think through them. That said, if they need to be scalable to other situations, otherwise it doesn't really matter if they're driving United's current results, because like the goals to xG differential, its not sustainable. Are there non-data reasons for the results disparity? - Absolutely, and it would be stupid to not consider these. Carrick clearly has a management style that better suits the club and the squad mentality, among other things. The confidence of the players/general vibe of the club could very well be the difference between the quality of result. I don't believe this to be true, but I would not rule it out, or at least it being one of several contributing factors. But if you believe this to be the case, you need to then think through: Will the good vibes last forever? - Eventually something has to give - either the underlying data catches up to the on-pitch results, or the on-pitch results drop to meet the data. Feel free to think through which is more likely, and how that will impact the vibes. Perhaps this is as simple as Amorim was the manager United needed to right the ship, and now Carrick is the manager United needs to maximize results. There are arguments for and against United sacking Amorim, as well as making Carrick's appointment permanent - I'm not here to persuade you one way or the other, what you choose to do with the facts I've presented and the other facts you've digested + your relationship with your emotions is your business. Thanks for reading!
