Chapter 132: Internet Crashes IV
David de Gea. Luke Shaw. Aaron Wan-Bissaka. Paul Pogba. Bruno Fernandes. Marcus Rashford. Anthony Martial. And now—Cristiano Ronaldo. Soon, possibly—Jadon Sancho.
The voice of popular TikToker AA9skillz rang out, his familiar, soothing cadence carrying the weight of a man about to drop some serious football wisdom. Seated in his usual setup—face filling the screen, microphone perfectly positioned, room dimly lit just right—he leaned slightly forward, his expression serious.
"Manchester United are gearing up to take over the world next season," he declared, his voice laced with excitement. "We always talk about Real Madrid, Man City, Liverpool, Bayern... but from next season, we have to put Manchester United back in that conversation. And I don’t think people are fully understanding how serious this is. This squad, all under Erik ten Hag? Nah, it’s scary, people."
He shook his head slowly, the weight of what he was saying sinking in. "No. Man United genuinely scare me right now. The way they are moving in the transfer market, the way they’ve been getting these players, they are coming for everything. Not just the Premier League—the whole of Europe better be ready. The Red Devils are coming back."
He paused for dramatic effect, his eyes scanning the screen as if making sure everyone was paying attention. Then, with renewed intensity, he continued, his words hitting like punches in a boxing match.
"Let’s break this down properly. We already know about Bruno Fernandes—this guy stepped into United and changed everything overnight. He’s been running the midfield, controlling games, making the difference. Paul Pogba? When he’s on it, he’s unplayable. He’s a World Cup winner, a midfield maestro. And then—if they actually get Cristiano Ronaldo? Are you crazy? This is a man with the experience, the leadership, the winning mentality—the GOAT, arguably. You put that in a dressing room with Bruno, Pogba, Rashford, Martial, and now Sancho? It’s over. It’s actually over."
AA9skillz leaned back slightly, letting it sink in before going again, his passion only intensifying. "And let’s not forget—Jadon Sancho. This isn’t just some overhyped player. Right now, in 2020, Sancho is one of the best young talents in world football. He’s an assist machine, he’s got goals in him, he’s got flair, creativity, pace—he’s the total package. If Man United actually manage to bring him in alongside Ronaldo? Bro, the rest of the league is finished."
He let out a small chuckle, but his face quickly turned serious again. "And let me just remind you—it’s Erik ten Hag who’s taking charge. Some of you might look at him and say, ’Oh, but he’s only managed in the Dutch league. Can he really do it in the Prem?’ Listen, let me tell you something—this man is a winner. Everywhere he’s been, he’s won. He’s tactically sharp, he gets the best out of his players, and he knows how to dominate games. If you’re sleeping on him, you’re making a huge mistake."
He sat up straight, delivering the final blow. "This isn’t just hype. This is real. The signs are there. The moves are happening. And just look at what Fabrizio Romano tweeted not too long ago—Manchester United’s latest chase? Borussia Dortmund’s own Jadon Sancho. ’Here we go’ might be incoming soon."
He exhaled deeply, letting the moment settle before offering one last thought. "I’m telling you—this isn’t just another ’United are back’ moment that ends in disappointment. This feels different. The players, the manager, the ambition—it’s all aligning. And if this actually happens, if they pull off Ronaldo and Sancho in the same window? You might as well start engraving the trophies now."
With that, he leaned back, smirking at the camera, as if daring anyone to disagree.
