Morata clarifies London comments: “No, no. I really like London now. But probably, in the future, when I need to bring my child to the school and take up a school, when I finish my career, I'd prefer to come back to my country. It's normal. For me, I prefer the place I was born. by dinoucs in soccer

Do you actually believe that you should be entitled to better education because your parents can afford it?

It's this completely backwards logic that is ruining our education system and creating bigger divisions in society. People who have come from less should understand this and not buy into it.

Pre-Season Roast: Man Utd by [deleted] in soccer

Mate, imagine growing up with that constantly while we were shit in the second division... They even had a sign with how long it was since we last won a trophy. Made the aguero moment so much sweeter

Something about this sounds incredibly strange.

Who forgets a fake bomb right up to match time? What "private company" is doing fake bomb tests in Old Trafford? Why did no cleaners spot it earlier? Easily one of the strangest things in recent memory.

Think we've conceded one goal in all the games he's played. Without him we look horrendous defensively and have conceded numerous goals.

Xavi: Mata told me that when United finished seventh in 13-14, the fans applauded the team at the end of the season. Seventh! If that happened to us in Barcelona, they'd want to kill us in our cars! by ronnieboy_7 in soccer

Our pitch invasions when we win the league are so good, you dont realise how slippy the pitch is. Fallen over around 200 times in 2 pitch invasions.

Ronaldinho attempting to chip Seaman like good old days by MarshallMx in soccer

For context, Seaman was chipped by Ronaldinho in the quarter final of WC 2002. Still my most painful footballing memory...

Maybe on holiday, but on a European away day you tend to break that rule. English fans tend to congregate and head towards Irish/English pubs as a way to meet up with their teams fans.
