It’s not YOU who decides what status a community shield is or not
It is officially not classified as a ‘preseason friendly’ that’s waffle you made up. Same with ‘major’ you can’t just decide what is major - it’s official or not.
So total trophies includes everything super cups, charity shields that are official
Any ‘major’ is subjective and, if you were honest, the most important ones are European cup, league title and FA cup = United have won more

Kylian Mbappé is 27 years old.
He's already won 21 major trophies for club & country.
He's already scored 100 goals for Real Madrid.
He's already won the World Cup.
He's already won the World Cup Golden Boot.
He's already scored in two World Cup finals.
He's already France's all-time leading goalscorer.

Kylian Mbappe is a better player than Harry Kane. End of discussion.
In the two tournaments they played both (WC and CL), Mbappe materially outscored Kane.
A scandal if Kane wins the ballon d’or on Monday. Nothing less

United were dominating domestically in the 50s and then terribly lost 23 squad members including 8 players in a plane crash. 3 months later they reached the FA Cup final. 7 years later won the league and 3 years later won the European Cup.
I would say greatness is ingrained 👍

OTD: Cristiano Ronaldo’s legs swept by Ashley Cole in the game that ended Arsenal’s 49-game unbeaten run - 2004
Not given as a pen, but apparently this game was a disgrace 🤷♂️

Jason Wilcox is a narcissist.
He changed the way United present new signings, removing the manager from the pictures and putting himself front and centre, as if he deserves all the credit for the signings.
After United won just THREE games in a row under Amorim, he went and did an interview talking about success, making himself look like some sort of genius.
He’s using this football club to feed his own ego and boost his image. He’s completely incompetent and out of his depth.
He should be sacked BEFORE Michael Carrick.

People ask why I don’t like the Arsenal fanbase. One title and they start lecturing how the game should be played. It was the same under Wenger. They would lecture the whole world about their style of football.
Have they forgotten the wage Gabriel Jesus got when Arteta signed him? Around 300k per week. Similar story for Havertz. Similar story for Declan Rice and many more.
Stop with the nonsense of pretending like it was a story of somehow winning without spending much. Arsenal wage bill had to become one of the highest in the league before they won anything.
Note — Arsenal fans who don’t lecture other clubs how to build their club, you don’t have to worry. This post isn’t for you. You don’t have reply with your hatred.
Arsenal’s chaos-to-champions journey under Mikel Arteta should serve as encouragement for Manchester United, but can they follow the blueprint?
❌ Be brutal with underperforming, overpaid stars
🔺 Trust the power of youth
⛔ Culture is king: players must know who’s the boss

City were still in debt when thaksin shinawatra took over from Malcolm Allison’s reckless spending in his spell as manager. You sold your soul to him & then current owners. Now you talk like you’ve always been debt free & well run.
I know more about your history than you do ffs

🚨Manchester City’s Abu Dhabi owners paid the council just £750k a year for the stadium naming rights — then sold them on in a deal worth an estimated £10m a year.
In a separate joint housing venture the same owners built nearly 1,800 homes on council land. The council has so far received only around £3m from that deal.
Why did the council lock in such limited returns while the commercial value was so much higher?
