Premiere League live table from BBC showing Manchester United at 3rd spot with 55 points and a game in hand.

With Chelsea imploding today, Manchester United at this moment is 7 points ahead for the CL spot. What an incredible opportunity tomorrow to go 10 points ahead for that CL spot, 3 points ahead of Villa and 6 ahead of scousers. It’s not gonna be easy. 😳

But, here we go. Comeon United. 🙏🏻 #MUFC

It is pretty devastating to have a soccer-obsessed 8-year-old and the World Cup in my country, and to be both priced and ethic’d out of attending.

I think at least part of it is that ugarte is put on when Amorim wants to protect a lead. So we often remove a 9 and the intensity drops. The fact that they concede so often in that position shows ugarte is not helping but he’s not solely at fault either.

I thought the same.

Yoshida is the first Red Sox pinch-hitter *ever* to have a swing that turned a deficit into a lead in the postseason.

After all that ▶️ One of the worst Manchester United team starts - 3 points behind Arsenal (CL spot), 1 behind Chelsea, and tied with City - after playing Arsenal, City, and Chelsea. 🤷🏻‍♂️ #mufc

I'm just here to help the ball club, take things one game at a time, and win for these fans...Kid is going to make a wonderful Senator one day.

Josh Allen has mastered the art of giving an interview and saying absolutely nothing. Wonderful use of sports cliches. Crash Davis would be proud.

Talking of "falling behind", have noticed how mainstream-to-right/w politicians are "intensely relaxed" about within-country inequality but think disaster if their country's GDP grows slower than others. Relativities morally unimportant (or just "envy") in one context but not the other, apparently.

I can now. SMH

This might be a peek at the 2 10s with no 9 that you were suggesting a few weeks back, no? Obviously mbuemo just getting his first minutes, but it looks ok so far.

I will second “hopeful.” I am CAUTIOUSLY optimistic.

I swore after the Frenkie De Jong debacle that I would never pay attention to transfer rumors again. I hate being that fan, but I need this game against Leeds so I can think about our actual players and stop searching for Mbuemo updates. #mufc #manchesterunited

CLARIFICATION :

The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline.

They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY

So spread this around

They can be texted. They can be called.

In light of the Trump administration restricting access to trans-specific support on the national 988 suicide prevention hotline, I’m asking everyone to share this alternative loud and wide:

The Rainbow Youth Project is here.
There is always help.

Rafael Devers traded to the Giants

holy shit

If you are a veteran in crisis, or know someone who is, the Veterans Crisis Line is available--just dial 988, then press 1.

To me, Maguire seems less exposed with 3 in the back than he did in ETH’s system. But you are right that we need improvement everywhere.

I think the question is: could ugarte and mainoo survive as a midfield duo in Amorim’s system? I would like to see if it works.

And this is in no way a dig at Amad who has been great. I am just confused as to what we are looking for. Looking at just the 10s Mount, Amad, Garnacho, Bruno, they all seem so different.

I meant yoro, obviously

Between maguire, Martinez, York, heaven, I feel the 3 in the back are sorted. Beyond that I am not sure. There are good players but do they fit what Amorim wants. When they talk about keeping Amad and dropping garnacho and mainoo, I want to know what skill set they are talking about.

To my fellow united fans: what current players fit Amorim’s system? Still a bit down about the Europa League final. Looking for some bright spots, but I am honestly confused about who will be playing in 6 months. Is there a consensus of who fits? #GGMU #MUFC

He just testified all morning about the reasons why the tariff policy was going to make America great. Then he checked his phone and realized everything he just said was canceled on Truth Social.

Prediction: when shits starts to break, and they can't blame DEI any longer, they will say it is bureaucratic sabotage to embarrass Trump, rather than the consequences of the cutbacks they are making now.

As Vance 'lectures' Europe on free speech, it is good to be reminded that the United States ranks 55 (!) on the World Press Freedom Index.

The top 10 countries are ALL in Europe.
