Liverpool Vs Man Utd just kicked off and live on bbc3 if you're UK based.

Old Trafford (the stadium) always struggled to build more because the trains ran alongside the place. And then the other side of the train track, none of the residents would sell their place.
I guess Manchester United has finally bought all the houses around the stadium and convinced the local government to shut off the train line to Liverpool whilst they redevelop the entire area.
Some big big money being thrown around here.
I grew up around Old Trafford and I'm not really sure what I feel about Manchester United's new stadium.
I mean, on one hand, most of Old Trafford is a shit hole and needs a refresh - this will certainly do that. But it doesn't really feel like the new development "fits" into the surrounding area.
Also, the club are a few spots off relegation this season and have had a shockingly bad few years. What a time to announce the new build.
After winning today, Liverpool now holds the record for most league wins in English football history with 2321 victories, surpassing Manchester United, who had held the record since 2007.

It's interesting to compare how Grealish gets treated by the media in comparison to Rashford.
This article is largely positive towards Grealish but I do wonder if Rashford had been drink driving after a party during a COVID lockdown if he would still have a career ?
