Right, apologies for those who have no interest, but after a year's enforced hiatus, it's time for the return of my annual #NUFC #FM26 🧵

It starts (as always) with an awful shot of my new avatar. My buzzcut and seethrough specs don't really lend themselves to the character creation options.

He won’t be for sale. But if someone at spurs is silly enough to let him go we should try. #nufc

Just a joke about surname.

it’s a joke based on the surname.

His injury record might deter it. City wouldn’t pay the asking for Bruno when it looked certain they would.

Ps. This post isn’t an endorsement of the player/move. Just a joke about the surname.

Maybe. But it’s not always that simple.

They can. They did it in the cup last season, just a quirk that he rarely misses a bundle of games.

Esssh. Grim update. Miley hopefully not too far away. #nufc
