The Wobbly Red Carpet to Bilbao…
Hold onto your hats, folks, because this news will knock your football socks off! It’s a bird, it’s a plane… no, it’s Victor Lindelof preparing for a grand send-off party — disguised as the Europa League final! Yes, that’s right! United’s unlikely hero, set to exit stage left with a Man Utd kiss on the cheek, is gearing up to tango with Tottenham in Bilbao with the poise of someone about to take a final bow.
Why this comedy crew is assembling, nobody knows! Injuries have turned United’s defense into a game of musical chairs, where Lindelof is the last one standing when the music stops—at least until De Ligt or Yoro hop off the stunts and into the spotlight, which might just happen in the nick of time. ‘Fitness roulette,’ they call it, spinning the wheel on the pain scale and hoping for miracles. Surely, Yoro can squeeze in some gym squats and ace that last-minute fitness quiz!
This could very well be Lindelof’s swansong, hair flowing majestically in the Bilbaosian wind, as he partners with Luke Shaw and the ever-magnetized Harry Maguire in a back-three that’s as iconic as fish and chips. Yes, dear reader, this match reads like a soap opera with more turns than the River Thames, starring a Man Utd defense blundering its way to glory, or at least a comedy of footballing errors!
