David Attenborough is perhaps best-known for his narration of the television series "Planet Earth" and for his nature show on the BBC.
What he is not known for is soccer commentary, but that's just what happened when someone (who we must say is a proper genius) put audio of David Attenborough's narration over a clip of Manchester United practicing.
The bit about Wayne Rooney in particular made our day better.
The Champions League group stages are a joy for any football, futbol, and soccer fan alike because it means double the games during the week to watch your favorite club compete in Europe. Plus, it’s not everyday that Juventus, Manchester United, or Paris St. Germain come through town for a match.
Yet, the sky blue in the north of England must have missed the memo about City’s match against Juventus in the first group stage match of the year. The expanding Etihad Stadium that is soon to house over 60,000 spectators was having trouble selling out the stadium.
Manchester United's Luke Shaw has suffered a horrific leg break during Tuesday's Champions League match between Manchester United and PSV Eindhoven. PSV's Hector Moreno made the tackle.
The injury comes after a bright start to the season from Shaw, who impressed in a full-back role for the Red Devils.
Now in his second season at Manchester United Louis Van Gaal has wasted no time in doing what he has become legendary for: pissing everybody off.
Ex and current players alike are coming out of the woodwork. Even players who have never had Van Gaal as a manager hate Louis Van Gaal.
Zlatan doesn’t see eye to eye with Van Gaal, but then again the only person Zlatan really sees eye to eye with is Zlatan.
In England, it doesn’t get any bigger than Manchester United and Liverpool. Just ask Pele, who compared the Northwest England derby to El Clasico last spring. Thirty-four miles and two major trophies separate the two most successful sides In England history.
The world found out who Anthony Martial was the way you or I found out about a movie like Sharknado.
He was going through yet more hardship at Manchester United after struggling last season at Real Madrid. It seemed like de ja vu, only worse, because of the simple fact that he was back to square one, regressing. At Real Madrid he at least took one step forward by virtue of leaving Manchester United for a bigger club, which made his struggles understandable and eventual success more respectable. Struggling back at United made it seem like he had lost everything he had gained at the end of his stint at Madrid.
Being a NYSE-listed company, Manchester United have to make statements to the market whenever there is significant turnover in senior personnel. When Sir Alex Ferguson announced his retirement, for example, it was first communicated in a formal statement to shareholders, and Manchester United PLC’s stock plummeted 4.5%.
A report on Twitter has David de Gea’s transfer from Manchester United to Real Madrid collapsing.
The documents did not arrive on time!!!!!! Presentation was ready. All agreed. But as it stands de Gea stays at MUFC!!

These days, one needn’t rely upon calendars, atomic clocks or tidal flows to gauge the dwindling of summer; the stench of panic emanating from Ed Woodward’s corner office is guidance enough.
