A Comedy of Errors at Old Trafford…
Picture this: the mighty Paul Scholes, with the wisdom of a zillion-year-old turtle sage, urged Manchester United to get a rock-solid centre-back in 2020. Did they listen? Nope. It’s as if Old Trafford was covered with a Harry Potter invisibility cloak whenever Scholesy spoke! Now, fast forward to the time when dinosaurs have learned TikTok dances, and it seems United is about to make the same blunder — SIDENOTE: History books, beware.
In the world of transfer tomfoolery, Scholes had pinpointed a few secret weapons. He recommended a centre-forward with the goal-scoring skills of a caffeinated kangaroo and a central defender who could scare lions back into their dens. Yet, what did United’s warlords do? They went on a shopping spree for stars with the subtlety of a cow in a china shop, only to end up trophy-less. Imagine legendary knights bravely trotting into battle… on donkeys.
Now the summer sun shines upon 2025, and guess what? United’s out to chase another unicorn! Eze, the majestic playmaker from Crystal Palace, is on Scholes’s wishlist. But watch out! Tottenham’s running to snatch him up faster than a squirrel at a nut sale. Perhaps Scholes should start sending his advice via sky-writing — might be more noticeable than the Old Trafford fog! As for United, here’s hoping they find the end of that ever-elusive rainbow, before it’s snapped up by someone else!
