Entertaining football: It’s the only way we know

Now in his 10th season with the Reds, the Spaniard knows better than most the mentality needed to play for United. Since signing for the club in 2011, David has immersed himself in our unique culture, at the heart of which has always been a need for attacking and entertaining football.

Sir Matt Busby once reportedly told a young Bobby Charlton:

“All those lads you see going to the factory in Trafford Park, they come to watch you on Saturday. They have boring jobs, so you have to give them something they will enjoy.”

Times may have changed but that culture is still very much a core philosophy of United today, as our results over the past week clearly indicate.
