0:35.0

And just before kickoff yesterday, Paul, former host,

0:39.6

0:41.8

because United versus

0:42.5

Wolves is always crap and it always is except this one it always is oh wow yeah

0:49.3

what a game it was so mad and I think I think it's argued be united best performance of the seasons for an hour. Yeah, we were yeah for an hour. We were so good in an exact in its second sense. I think that's also because when you have really good

okay, no, because you think it does look like a top for sight

1:58.0

when everyone's there and playing well,
