Sir Bradley Wiggins on United’s “Mission Championship”…

In a delightful twist of events, cycling hero Sir Bradley Wiggins has turned his expert eye from pedals to pitches, offering a playful jab at Manchester United. The Liverpool enthusiast couldn’t resist a chuckle at the idea of United winning the league by 2028, suggesting they focus more on dodging relegation instead. Ouch.

But wait, the drama doesn’t stop there! Wiggins, known for his Olympic prowess, took a swing at INEOS’s big boss, Sir Dave Brailsford. The two have exchanged sharp words since the “jiffy bag” episode, and Wiggo held no punches in expressing his “meh” attitude towards Brailsford’s so-called achievements. “Mission 21? Try ‘Mission Championship’—sounds more like it,” chortled Sir Wiggo, unimpressed by the fancy talk of marginal gains at Old Trafford.

You’d think sticking to his cycling lane would suffice, but Sir Wiggo’s got a point: at the end of the day, it’s all about pedaling or playing hard, not chatting about pillows.
