[olaftab]

News item on main BBC national news….well well well.

[Legion]

I'm open-minded on this one.

Probably one of the most bizarre Sundays for donkeys years watching this developing, roll on tomorrow. Who is the other team who wanted him but wouldn't pay the wages..??

[Tuscans]

Aye I had that one lined up also.

So by unbelievable he must mean unbelievably bad. Unless he’s gone full 180 in the space of a day.

Genuinely pissing myself at the flip flopping in the space of 24hrs.

Is it just the photo but he looks a stone over weight. Hopefully our fitness team can get him ready.

The media circus will be all over him

[pauliewalnuts]

He's looking, err, "healthy".

[Tuscans]

He's looking, err, "healthy".

I thought homeless.

It’s probably you - you do have a bit of a thing about Man Utd.

[AV84]

Man U fans are commenting on his appearance too. Even the ones wishing him well are saying he looks wrong. Hopefully he just needs a haircut and a shave.

Hahahaha
He does look a little disheveled.
Needs a hair cut and to stop eating all those school dinners.

[Legion]

He'll be fine when he sobers up.

[Goldenballs]

I didn't want you here, but your here now, so.. you know, well done... Welcome!

But seriously, have a proper good go and become a hero, bet you'll love it here.

[AV84]

It's that long commute he's just done to sign the contract. He really should stay in a hotel or something.

He looks like he stopped for a steak bake at every Greggs on the way down.

I hope we know what we're doing here.

🚨 Marcus Rashford statement: “I would like to thank Manchester United and Aston Villa for making this loan deal happen”.

"I was lucky to have a few clubs approach me but Aston Villa was an easy decision - I really admire the way that Aston Villa have been playing this season, and the managers' ambitions”.

“I just want to play football and am excited to get started. I wish everyone at Manchester United all the best for the rest of the season”.

I mean, I've read more enthusiastic hostage statements! But who cares if he scores goals, I suppose.

Buh. A very strange deal, let's hope it works.
