Truth hurts as even United show us how

UNITED fans of a higher mental calibre (the ones who don’t look at light bulbs in awe) weren’t excited about their team’s start because they hadn’t beaten a team in the top 10.

Guess what, they still haven’t! It’s called gallows humour because of the gigantic pain in the neck that inevitably follows. I’d spent most of the Bordeaux game wincing. Maybe there were impurities in the alcohol, but there was also something fundamental missing from the performance.

Passing. Where did it go? Was it outlawed overnight?
