Manchester United star Brandon Williams takes hilarious dig at Manchester City’s treble
Manchester United full-back Brandon Williams has taken a dig at Manchester City after their treble was completed on June 10.
The Cityzens won the Premier League at the expense of title challengers Arsenal while they beat the Red Devils in the FA Cup final earlier this month. The UEFA Champions League was the last hurdle.
Manchester United fans would have unquestionably been Inter Milan fans on the night as they hoped Man City would be unable to win the treble. But that’s not how things panned out.
Rodri’s goal in the 68th minute was enough to hand Manchester City their first Champions League trophy. Pep Guardiola became the only manager to win the treble (league, main domestic cup competition, main European competition).
Williams take a dig at Man City
He did it first with Barcelona in the 2008-09 season. But before all this, Manchester United became the first team to achieve the feat, doing so in the 1998-99 season under Sir Alex Ferguson – without 115 alleged FFP breaches.
Williams, who was born in Crumpsall and has been on our books since 2008, reminded Manchester City fans that they weren’t the first English team to achieve the treble. He wrote on his Instagram story, via the Mirror:
“Nobody wants a sloppy seconds.”
Manchester United fans would love it from Williams. But the fact is that our standards have dropped and our noisy neighbours are levels above us. That has to change, and Erik ten Hag has shown that he can be the man to do that.
Williams, in particular, looks like one of the players that won’t be in his plans. It is important we cut off mediocre players and are ruthless in our recruitment.

A 22-year-old with five minutes of senior football this season isn’t a good look. Maybe its time Williams considers other options to rekindle his career after the initial promise he showed under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
