TRUST Erling Haaland's head in the half-hearted Manchester Derby today at Wembley.
United and City meet (3pm ITV) in a pre-season rehash of the FA Cup Final, but instead of being knackered after a long campaign, this time they'll be knackered after a long summer, or something.
The flimsy nature of professional athletes aside, much of the interest for armchair punters will be in seeing how some of Erik ten Hag's youngsters and purchases perform in this final warm-up friendly.
The Old Trafford boss could do with lucking into another Kobbie Mainoo. Another two would be better.
How Manchester United have managed to bungle recruitment and development over recent years is a source of wonder - and they might well be at it again.
We now won't see £52million superteen centre-back Leny Yoro for months. That could be unlucky.
