    A moment I did not think I'd ever see. #nufc have ended 70 years of hurt with the most sensational victory in the Carabao Cup here at Wembley. Bruno Guimaraes is bent double in tears - and he won't be the only one. These magnificent players have created history. What a moment

    Christian Atsu set up a charity for abandoned, orphaned and trafficked children. He donated thousands of pounds to help destitute prisoners in Ghana, paid for their life-saving operations with little or no publicity. An excellent footballer but even better man. RIP.

    Pipe down pal. A month ago you were mocking #nufc fans for being upset at their ownership and telling them to band together to buy the club.

    Seen a few people say: '#nufc fans, don't expect Man City investment!' To be honest, they'd settle for the stadium not being a tatty advert for Sports Direct, an MD who doesn't think painting the training ground is enough, a manager who doesn't do 'ticking over'...

    Huddersfield's is truly a magical story. The 15,000 fans who've magically appeared for a start

    Really having to bite my tongue on this North East local lockdown. From Friday the situation is so severe we won't be able to see or visit our families but three weeks ago we were being encouraged to eat out multiple times, go to the pub and return to the office 🤷‍♂️

    Ciaran Clark was signed by Rafa Benitez in 2016 to get #nufc promoted from the Championship. That he's still playing five years later tells you why #nufc are in this position.* * Fernandez - who replaced him - justified the calls that he should have started, btw

    How much did Kieran Trippier cost #nufc again?! What a signing. Lifts everyone around him and delivery is fantastic.

    NUFC defensive unit last night: Martin Dubravka (£5.2m), Fabian Schar (£3m), Jamaal Lascelles (£3.5m), Florian Lejeune (£8.7m). Total cost: £20.4m 💷 Or roughly one Nathan Ake...
