Well done to #AVFC for qualifying for the UCL! Good luck next season, hope you don't get your own 'group of death' but TBH I wouldn't have swapped our group, you go to the UCL to play against the best Having Mbappe and Leao and the rest turn up to St James' was immense fun

I am a management consultant at one of the largest consultancy companies in the world The concept of "gardening leave" - when someone hands in their notice and you can't/don't release them early but don't want them working on your ongoing concerns - is a very common one 🧵 #NUFC

With Lewis Hall's goal, we've equalled the record for the number of different scorers in a premier league season (20) To beeak that record, we need one of these to score on Sunday: Dubs or Pope Krafth Anderson 🙏🙏🙏 😆

Can we agree now that our summer signings were good? Livramento = class Hall = class Tonali = class Barnes = class all add new quality to our squad its only been the bad luck of injuries (and a ban) that's made it look worse These players definitely improve our squad #NUFC

The #NUFC season so far is a kind of success* 🧵 We were 30mins/dodgy penalty away from qualifying from our first UCL group (of death) in 20 years. A group with 2 of this years quarter finalists and a UEL quarter finalist (who knows how far they'll actually get)

As a senior executive in multiple companies he 100% knows what it is, and this level of dishonesty should be deeply alarming to Man U fans This is an attempt to manipulate them and to avoid scrutiny or blame for their own bad planning

@GianfrancoShoIa Unlike Bruno, Isak does not have a release clause Also, Isaks price for NUFC relates to how much it would cost to replace him? 24yr old 2nd highest EPL goalscorer with highest goals per min this season? We'd have to buy Haaland, Neymar (young version), Mbappe to replace that..

If by some freak occurrence he has never had to poach or lose a senior figure in any of his other ventures this means either: a) he is vastly less experienced than he pretends or b) he is nothing but an empty figurehead and others do the real work
