I wrote books about Manchester United in the 70s, 80s & 90s. Thought it was about time I got stuck into the noughties one. I've been meeting the players and speaking to them about a remarkable time at MUFC.

0-0 at HT at Stamford Bridge. Good game so far. Lots of chances.
The bar was low, but much better from MUFC. Amad getting space, Fernandes on it, Santos tidy.

Kai Rooney, 16, scored four yesterday.
I asked people who’ve worked/work with him what type of player he is and where his development is at.

Respect the work the @MU_Foundation do.
Players met fans with life-limiting illnesses today at Carrington.
doing sky sports now. think they'll ask me about football. but prepared to answer any geography, music, travel or stadium questions if needed.
The only change at MUFC is that Michael Carrick will play centre mid at Chelsea. Plus Jonny Evans will return as a central defender.
Any delay was because Evans wanted confirmation that he wouldn't win the Ballon d'Or last night.
He has a point to prove.
They all do.
Big time

Much made of the top managers from a tiny bit of the Basque Country, but what of the players (three on the Ballon d'Or list tonight) plus managers like Cesc Fabregas from the towns and villages north of Barcelona. thenationalnews.com/sport/20…

@AndyMitten was at Camp Nou to watch Kylian Mbappe score twice as Real Madrid beat Barcelona 2-1 in El Clasico. He asked fans who they think will win the Ballon d’Or
I'll do the usual MUFC Q&A on @TheAthleticFC today from 1pm onwards UK time. Put any questions on there and I'll do my best to answer as many as I can.
