United against Burnley in a draw
Recently, the beleaguered, former championship
winning Manchester United football club in England, signed star Real
Madrid footballer, Angel Di Maria, for $100,000,000. Manchester
United fans got excited, believing it would return the team to
football glory. This past Saturday, Di Maria got suited and booted,
made his way unto the pitch…and ended up injured during his first
match.

According to the Telegraph, someone kicked Di Maria
in the calf creating the problem and the new manager, Louis Van Gaal,
took him off the pitch as a precaution. If I pay you $100,000,000,
you could get kicked in the no-no’s (crown jewels) and I’m still
playing you (LOL). Your spleen could fall out and I would look at
the medic and say, "Can't we just slap a bandage on him and get him
back in the match."
Alex Ferguson
Football trolls on social networking *cough* such as
myself, have had a field day at poor Manchester United’s expense, as
they dominated football for years (yea, we were hating). So, their
losing streak is stunning to watch. I joked on Twitter that maybe Di
Maria got confused and thought he was signing with reigning champs,
Manchester City, not Manchester United. Safe to say he knows now
(just teasing).
David Moyes
Manchester United went from years of success and
confidence under former manager, Sir Alex Ferguson, who retired with
the team as number one in the Premier League, to his pessimistic,
doubtful successor, David Moyes, telling the squad for nearly a year
they will not win (and they played that way and lost).
An example of the football troll jokes about Manchester United
on social networking. It's all in good fun and people don't mean it
in a bad way.
Though he did not mean to do so, Moyes destroyed
their confidence. Social media making Moyes and by default the squad
the butt of many jokes didn't help Manchester United's confidence
either. Spending all the money in the world on footballers without
correcting the confidence issue is not going to work.
