It’s always the ones you most expect. I guess we actually should have really called him “Britain Trump” after all.

Stay focused everyone. Distraction techniques in operation by our unpatriotic media. We want to know where Laure Ferrari’s cash came from to buy her Frinton house. Don’t rest until we are reassured nothing dodgy took place.

Farage won’t be happy with this will he? He is SO passionate lately about protecting women and girls in the UK.
benjits.bsky.social (@benjits.bsky.social) reply parent
He’s 100% being Trump 2.0. He’s had 3 “hard” questions since joining reform and this is how he reacts. The man can not take any heat. Remember how angry and snappy Trump got when he used to let actual journalists into the Whitehouse?

And we can all blame the people who voted for Brexit, and then (ridiculously) also voted Reform UK. I have no patience or sympathy for them anymore. Farage & Co lied to them over and over again and they still fall for it, vote for him and are determined to make my life and country a shitter place

Astonished (not really anymore) at LBC and Shelagh Fogarty’s show this afternoon. 10 minutes in and we had “Angela Raynor has resigned so let’s go straight to Nigel Farage to see what he thinks about it Nigel Nigel Nigel Nigel Nigel Nigel Nigel Nigel Nigel Nigel…”

Ah I see, spending £400m+ in one transfer window is only okay if your shirt has a liverbird on it. Any one else and it’s “grotesque”, football would have “gone” and other teams would be “buying the league”

I’m hoping yesterday was a culmination of Bruno/Casemiro/Dalot having a very poor game. This team/formation can play really well they are just, so off and on. New GK/CM and we won’t be far off consistency 🤞🏻 We’ve already seen positives and this is still a massive work in progress GGMU #mufc

I really want him to get it right and hope he gets time with HIS players, but the massive question is who is available/good enough to come and replace him? It feels really ominous that we are heading for the 1 yr/18 month mark and here we are again, new manager, 5 new players, sack, rinse & repeat

I’ve got patience and always have backed our managers (especially over the group of players from the last few years) but today was horribly familiar to last season. I still think Amorim is the man for it but I’m a bit more worried than I was…
benjits.bsky.social (@benjits.bsky.social) reply parent
Said all week the Arsenal game could only be seen as a positive if we won today and looked kinda dangerous…oh well. RWB, CM AND GK need recruitment. Can’t expect anything big with our midfield like this.

This will happen with Brighton too. As good a club as they are, one of their strengths is as a springboard club for very good players. Keep pricing players at £100m+ and complicating transfers and this players just won’t go there in the beginning anymore.

We lost 3 points today but showed 1 (proper) transfer window and 1 pre season with Amorim has made us a hugely improved more dangerous team, even against 2nd of last season. A new GK and 37 more games to that standard and we will be well on our way. 🔴⚪️⚫️ #GGMU. #MUFC

If u understand 1% about football, u can see massive improvement in that Utd side. Salty Arsenal fans here laughing about what Amorim said; one of the sides today are talked about as title contenders and the other as a top half team…if they both play like that each week it’s hard to tell who’s who
