Manchester United''s Hannah Blundell has reacted to iShowSpeed after he opened the footballer in an Ultimate Team pack on the new EA Sports FC 24 game. The revamped football game, formerly known as Fifa launched its early access on September 19th and iShowSpeed was one of the first people in the world to get his hands on it. The early access version also includes the popular Ultimate Team game, which now includes female players from the English, Spanish, German, French and American women's leagues which means the likes of Sam Kerr, Mary Earps, Alexia Putellas and Alex Morgan can be unlocked by players for the first time. However, Speed clearly didn't get the memo on this and was stunned when he opened several packs on his stream on Tuesday to learn that women were on the game. Opening one pack Speed saw that he had a Manchester United player who played at left back. The 18-year-old streaming sensation immediately got excited, presumably thinking that he was getting England international Luke Shaw. However, he was dumbfounded when he saw that it was actually Blundell. "What the f**k?!" he said before adding "Is that girl?" This could have backfired for Speed but Blundell took it in her stride. The 29-year-old reshared the footage from the official EAFC 24 account adding: "Hahahaha made it." Dexerto report that Blundell is a keen gamer herself with her own Twitch channel where she regularly plays Call of Duty. Blundell signed for United in 2021 having previously played for Chelsea since 2013 where she won the Women's Super League four times.

Former Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has conceded the club’s re-signing of Cristiano Ronaldo “turned out wrong”. Solskjaer was in charge when United brought the five-time Ballon d’Or winner back to Old Trafford amid much optimism and fanfare in August 2021. At the time the transfer was viewed as a coup that could potentially fuel a Premier League title challenge. Yet things soon unravelled as the team struggled and Solskjaer was sacked in November that year. Ronaldo left the club in acrimonious fashion 12 months later. Solskjaer told The Athletic: “It was about taking the next step to challenge for the title. And, unfortunately, it just didn’t work out. “It was a decision that was very difficult to turn down and I felt we had to take it, but it turned out wrong. “It felt so right when he signed and the fans felt that at that Newcastle game (when he scored twice), when Old Trafford was rocking. He was still one of the best goalscorers in the world, he was looking strong.” But he added: “When you have a group you need everyone to pull in the same direction. When things didn’t go right, you could see certain players and egos came out.” Solskjaer was also the manager when the club signed England defender Harry Maguire in the summer of 2019. The Norwegian feels the recent criticism, and even ridiculing of Maguire, has been very unfair. He said: “Harry Maguire – it’s a disgrace that he’s getting so much abuse. I feel sorry for him, but he’s a strong lad and I hope it turns for him. “He raised our defence big time when he arrived and lifted the mood around the place.”
