67 years ago today the Busby Babes played their last game on British soil. It was a famous 5-4 victory over Arsenal at Highbury. My dad was there and the wonderful Patrick Barclay interviewed him about that game a few years ago. Here it is:

Rashford: sad it ended badly. Local lad who made it. Scored/made goals, won trophies. Should be a terrace hero but recency bias strong. Sauntered around the pitch when team needed leaders. Outside noise / pressure not helped but much was self inflicted. Thanks for memories #mufc

Amad will rightly get the plaudits, but Zirkzee changed the game. Playing with his back to goal he held the ball up, brought others into play and allowed United to retain possession in the attacking third. Stark contrast to Hojlund who now needs to sit on the bench. #mufc

13 years ago we lost my cousin John 'Kilburn' Mettis. Kilburn was a very well known Cockney Red and a major reason why I'm a red. Sadly missed. Much loved. Always remembered. RIP John. 🔴⚪️⚫️

Braverman tells us she has SEEN the wall Italy has built on their "land border" with Turkey. Thick, incompetent or both? Will surely be picked up by @quietriotpod.bsky.social @therestpolitics.bsky.social @thenewsagents.com @thetrawl.bsky.social

It's a Christmas tradition so I was at the game yesterday. A horrible watch and for long periods in the first half it was very negative in the stands.
Newcastle were excellent. Their midfield bullied and outclassed Casemiro and Eriksen. Where do #mufc go from here? 🧵

I'm not sure Højlund is going to make it at United. Hold up play is hit and miss. Perpetually runs straight looking for a straight pass. Him and Zirkzee cost £100m+. Anthony fee (rightly) held up as poor judgement, but these two deals may not be far behind. #mufc

Given Amorim's reaction to being questioned about Garnacho and Rashford it is now up to both players. If the decision leads to a positive reaction then it's good for the team. If their reaction is negative, then they will be sold. Amorim and the team win in both scenarios.

Wow. Had to enact the 'block' for the first time on here because someone who doesn't like 'lefties' had a go and included my son in his pointless reply.

On this day in 1994 Man United beat Galatasaray 4-0 in the Champions League Group Stage.
I was there. Now 30 years later one of the those players' sons' is my son's flatmate! #mufc

Both United's and Arsenal's left side not ideal. United missing Martinez with Maguire and Malacia in to contend with Saka 😫😫
Arsenal also look weaker with Kiwior and Zinchenko but they only have the high-five merchant to deal with. Advantage Arsenal 🥲

I'm assuming there will be an version 2.0? Where's Robson? Zanetti? Gento? Baresi? Del Piero? Zlatan?
