He just gets it, doesn’t he? ♥️ #MUFC [@SkySportsPL]

Football is about attacking intent and players giving their all until the final whistle, regardless of circumstances. It would have been easy for heads to drop after that rugby-like routine. Instead, we saw a group of men perform like Manchester United players today. #MUFC

Maybe, instead of focusing on how this team would fare against the all-conquering Manchester United of 2008, Theo Walcott and Co should concentrate on the here and now. @shaunconnolly85.bsky.social ✍🏻 #MUFC #Premierleague

UTFR! 🇾🇪 #MUFC #Premierleague

Say what you will about the ongoing turmoil at M16, but Arteta will know he was fortunate to escape Old Trafford with anything in August. #MUFC #PremierLeague

An air of uncertainty exists regarding Manchester United’s sporting department, and rightfully so. A decision to retain and support Erik ten Hag before sacking him set the foundations for the calamity during Ruben Amorim’s tenure. #MUFC 1/3

In all honesty, what sort of an answer was he expecting!? 😂 #MUFC

Always great to spend some time with my good mate, Sam. A nice listen, Reds. 👇🏻 #MUFC

We want YOUR great MUFC related tales, stories and incidents. Got a funny moment over the years. A piece that is passionate, raw and honest. The fanzine is YOU and we want you to sit down and make us laugh or make us care. DM. email. Your words. ✏️ Cheers Reds.

We often hear about the requirements for a ‘best-in-class’ setup from top to bottom. Well, now is the time to put your money where your mouth is. If you read one article today - @shaunconnolly85.bsky.social ✍🏻 about everything you need to know in midfield. #MUFC

Whether dissecting the defensive intellect of Lisandro Martinez and Harry Maguire or the transitional bravado of a team that looked truly inspired, Carrick’s fingerprints after just three days have left an indelible mark. ☕️ #MUFC

Lisandro Martinez again highlighted his importance for Manchester United today. Some may choose to ridicule him for reasons unknown to me, but, whether for Amorim or Carrick, his qualities are so obvious. #MUFC

I see plenty have taken to acknowledging that Manchester United were good, but were helped by City not turning up. In reality, City were outplayed by the superior side on the day. It’s that simple, and it’s ok to acknowledge that. #MUFC

Bryan Mbeumo and Patrick Dorgu sealed a deserved win with second-half strikes, in a game that saw the Reds hit the woodwork twice while having three goals disallowed. Make no mistake, Manchester is red. Read in full 👇🏻 #MUFC

An aerial view of Manchester this afternoon.

A strong start from United inside a deafening Old Trafford. City appear to be nervous and are there for taking early on. Carrick will know his side needs to capitalise on this period. #MUFC

Michael Carrick has selected his first starting XI for the Manchester derby. How are we feeling, Reds? #MUFC

I’ve read several posts today stating that Barcelona are interested in purchasing Rashford at a lower price than previously agreed. Smaller outlets are routinely bypassed, but we broke this on December 13 with @theatre-of-red.bsky.social and Albert Fernández #MUFC

Given his willingness to comply with the club’s desires during a difficult season, Berrada and Wilcox feel he is the correct choice at this stage of the campaign. @shaunconnolly85.bsky.social ✍🏻 #MUFC

The outcome of one game of football will never define a club - Macclesfield’s win against Crystal Palace is the definition of this. Still, if a football club is to enjoy regular success, the sporting hierarchy and manager/head coach must be singing off the same hymn sheet.

A challenging campaign continues to present issues for the Manchester United board after a 2-1 defeat against Brighton in the third round of the FA Cup. #MUFC

The team has arrived! UTFR 🇾🇪 #MUFC #FACup

Although many have already dismissed Manchester United during a season of further change and uncertainty, the FA Cup presents a credible opportunity for domestic silverware. @shaunconnolly85.bsky.social ✍🏻 #MUFC #FACup

Vision, creativity, and an innate ability to read the game were just some of the attributes that made Michael Carrick comparable to his peers across Europe. Jerry Kelleher ✍🏻 #MUFC #Carrick

As the Manchester United backroom team takes stock of another evening of missed opportunities at Turf Moor, a decision about the latest interim appointment is fast approaching. @shaunconnolly85.bsky.social ✍🏻 #MUFC

I find it bizarre that grown men and women can’t acknowledge the attacking intent from Fletcher without downing Amorim, praise Sesko without ridiculing Hojlund, or acknowledge Heaven’s growth without laying in Yoro’s ‘decline’.

Don’t be so surprised about folk going out of their way to pile onto Benjamin Sesko after a promising display. That’s how Manchester United agendas work, and now that Amorim is gone, they must continue to keep the negativity flowing until his permanent replacement arrives.

Darren Fletcher names his starting XI. How do you feel about this evening? #MUFC #Premierleague

Manchester United aim to bring in a caretaker who can provide a lift to the dressing room and fanbase. Long term, officials are keen to stamp the club’s worldwide status with an elite head coach in the summer - one who can spearhead a unified vision towards Project 150. #MUFC

🎙️We are back for the first episode of 2026! @shaunconnolly85.bsky.social chats with Reza from @utdarts1.bsky.social about Ruben Amorim’s departure, a critical decision for Ineos, and much more. Listen to the whole show from the link 👇🏻 theatre-of-red.com/theatre-of-r... #MUFC #Podcast

Manchester United begin life without Ruben Amorim against Burnley, with a midweek trip to Turf Moor representing an opportunity to lay the foundations for new beginnings. @shaunconnolly85.bsky.social ✍🏻 #MUFC

Progress is never linear, and unless this football club is capable of sticking to a decision, I fear we will find ourselves revisiting the same conversation in another 16 months. #MUFC

Manchester United Football Club. The enigma that requires a complete overhaul and success at the same time. Onto the next victim.

🚨 Per David Ornstein, Ruben Amorim has been sacked by Manchester United. “40yo Portuguese informed of decision & goes with immediate effect after 14 months following breakdown in relations. Darren Fletcher expected to take over #MUFC on interim basis”

Manchester United is a way of life for many, and as tedious as it is for genuine supporters, the people who thrive do so when negativity blossoms. You can replace Ruben Amorim with Luis Enrique tomorrow, and the usual suspects will have cultivated an agenda in six weeks.

A thoroughly depleted Manchester United came from behind to earn a point at Elland Road, drawing 1-1 with Leeds on Sunday afternoon. @shaunconnolly85.bsky.social ✍🏻 #MUFC
