The Michael Fish reference from Shearer!
Feels unfair that Barcelona have got a player like Yamal so soon after losing Messi. He’s going to be the best player in the world for years.

PSG v Barcelona would be a final for the ages. So much young attacking talent in those teams.

Would have taken 1-1 before the game but slight sense of disappointment we couldn’t win it - started the second half really well and that was such a nothing penalty. Momentum shifted late on and Real Sociedad unlucky not to score again. All to play for!

The cup gets plenty of stick, but surely one of the best fourth rounds for a number of years. Leyton Orient and Birmingham pushed Man City and Newcastle all the way, and now Plymouth have knocked Liverpool out!

Think you can probably be against VAR as it currently is and also think that this is one the linesman should probably just spot anyway?

Most complete performance under Amorim so far, for my money. Fernandes, Mainoo and Martinez excellent, Garnacho too when he came on. Good to see players show their versatility. Never looked in too much trouble and winning margin should have been greater.

Almost as bad as fans of big clubs not wanting to qualify for Europe so they can have fewer games and ‘more time on the training pitch’…

Fellaini, Young, Evra, Pickford, Januzaj, Oviedo, Lescott, Gibson, Anichebe, Hernandez, Rodwell, Pienaar.
Stumped for the last one!

Might as well just scrap the competition the way things are going.
What’s the justification for this?

It’s 25 years ago this week since #MUFC took part in the first Club World Cup.
Really enjoyed writing this, and trawling through some superb archive images, on a controversial time in the club’s history:
