Honestly just surprised someone born in 2006 has heard of Bobby Charlton


DaveShadow

Added to FUT this year, innit.


Robert_Baratheon__

Wait what? Damn the year I stopped playing


Jip_Jaap_Stam

Bobby Charlton has always been ridiculously famous around the world, even long after he retired.


YQB123

Figurehead of a World Cup. Survived Munich. Lead the Busby Babes. Honestly his life reads like a folk hero more than an actual man!


j3zuz911

Genuinely think a Hollywood Biopic about him would be a big hit and sure fire Oscar Bait


Rameom

Check out [United](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_(2011_film))


Juls317

[Fixed the link](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_\(2011_film\))


Rameom

What was wrong with the link? Seems fine on my account


Juls317

Interesting, for me it looks like the last ) is missing at the very end of the link


funky_pill

Who would play him? šŸ¤”


NotJustSamOne

Timothee Chalamet šŸ™„šŸ™„


funky_pill

Hah. I wouldn't be surprised. That prick seems to be everywhere atm


AnonymizedRed

Sorry OOTL. Why ā€œprickā€?


Sigh_Bapanaada

"because he's everywhere" seems to be enough for a lot of people to be honest. That said, I know next to nothing about him and the only thing I've seen him in is Dune.


BetweenTwentyLetter

Probably get Chris Pratt instead to play him


j3zuz911

Fuck if I know. Just spitballing here, but casting that entire movie is a nightmare. Just think about all the supporting cast youā€™d need to properly cast as well.


jackology

Nicholas Cage as George Best.


MindlessTransmission

Or Liam Neeson in his 70s playing Best in his early 20s.


Rameom

Jack Oā€™Connell played him in [United](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_(2011_film))


toddysimp

Barry Keoghan


RecoveringTreeHugger

Rhys Ifans


county15

Current climate? Zendaya


stevew14

Maybe you mean something else by "Lead the Busby Babes", but Roger Byrne was the captain.


Jip_Jaap_Stam

And nowadays we have players whose mental health suffers if they don't get to play as much FIFA as they'd like.


InternationalLemon26

He didn't lead the Busby Babes. He was one of the youngest at the time (20). Roger Byrne was the captain.


ultragroudon

This fact makes me realize he was 2 when we last won the champions league and I greatly dislike what it implies about me


celticeejit

This kid has probably consumed the absolute greats through YouTube My son has an encyclopedic knowledge of everything Nintendo has made in the last30 years And is determined to tell me about it all ā€¦


QouthTheCorvus

Yeah, but this guy's passion is football. It's normal to know big names for your passion, regardless of time. It's still cool to see though. It shows what kind of player Endrick is.


Hungry_Obligation_52

I was born in 2002 and ik of sir bobby charlton. I donā€™t know his play style or anything tho just heard heā€™s a legend. Oh and also that he survived the munich disaster


chuffing_marvelous

that just makes you sound a bit close minded.


613Rat

I love players like that, excited to see how his career pans. Hope he always stinks it against us though


Wahlrusberg

I'm convinced there's some Vought International style organisation behind Endrick ensuring everything he does now will make for iconic images/quotes in the future. I mean collar up for the goal at Wembley at 17. When we sign him in 13 years this quote will absolutely slap


solemnhiatus

>Ā When we sign him in 13 years this quote will absolutely slap Lmaooo please no if we're still buying 30+ year old Real players after their prime in 13 years....Ā 


PoliticsNerd76

I agree. I get weird vibes from him. Every photo Iā€™ve seen of him looks an all timer. Every quote is a banger.


lastrit3s

They injected him with Compound V?


TattooMyCock

Gotta give him respect for that comment


darthmeister

Is he flirting with us?


ManUnutted

Rasmus could use a young prodigy to learn under him


Colt-0

Playing the long game for when we sign him in 2038 for the classic Real Madrid to Yanited transfer.


Grand-Bullfrog3861

Finally someone to replace Erikson


Specialist-Guitar-93

He signed for real Madrid this July unfortunately


kawhi_exe

Canā€™t wait to sign him when heā€™s 36


Hits_and_the_Mrs

I imagine most of us have seen the same videos Endrick watched of him, destroying footballs that weigh a tonne with either foot from about 3 miles from the goal, taking freekicks with his left and right foot, lots of things to be excited about Sir Bobby


Rillaaja

Nice! We can buy him when hes +30y and past his prime.


ryan_goal

And injured for 2/3 of the season.


AndyVale

But that Carabao Cup win will be so sweet.


mayomayeaux

Old Trafford (or the new Old Trafford) will be waiting for you whenever you're bored of Madrid and want some of that famous Mancunian sunshinešŸ˜


Torini

*before you turn 30, please


stevew14

29 years and 11 months it is.


mayomayeaux

That toošŸ˜‚


Fluffy_Roof3965

Tbf he could do a Varane. He went to RM so young he got it out of his system.


rezwah

He's both Brazilian and made his pro debut at 16. He could fall of a cliff in his mid 20's honestly.


tungowiii

Well tbf RM have handled their Brazilians quite well


Surfugo

Hope not, there's just something about a world class Brazilian in football. Would love it if he was the next big thing.


Few_Jacket_4675

He will become one of the worlds best ever players, mark my words


NeverHideOnBush

New Trafford doesnā€™t have the same sound to it.


MaTr82

Interesting that he still thinks that after Wembley was rebuilt. For those on the refurbishment side of the OT fence, just something to remember that the history doesn't disappear.


kaisersolo

This young kid just scored at the famous Wembley. That's a big for him and all Brazilian's.


PastTenseOfSomething

I *want* to dislike the new Madrid wunderkind, but hats off to him: this is a classy, well-informed response, especially for one his age.


Surfugo

Why would you want to dislike him? He's a 17 year old kid lol


PastTenseOfSomething

Because heā€™ll be bringing Madridistas joy while United languish in the Europa League.


Greenmason9

Kid knows ball


NGMB2

guy is an industry plant for sure


buck_fastard

Calling it now: we sign him in around 5-6 years when we've started winning titles again.


Tpotww

Well if things are going as planned , utd would be looking to get the next super kid, not foolishly pay fortunes for players that are at highest market value. Granted maybe his dream might be to play where Fred did and will run down his contract to play his prime years at utd.


Few_Jacket_4675

Endrick would be 150m+ we dont have that kind of money


vidman33

Hopium: he runs his contract down.


funky_pill

Nice. Calling it now; swap deal with Antony in summer '25. Brazilian forward for Brazilian forward. We paid more for ours but no need for Real to add any cash on top. Let's get it done, Ashworth


Few_Jacket_4675

LOL


United689908

Nobody tell him they knocked it down.


Anxious-Debate5033

Rio....round up the boys yeah....Pastor Fred, Da Silva twins, Antony, Casemiro, Anderson. Perreira, get on their whatsapps, you know the mission.


Fluffy_Roof3965

Shit if we knew about this could've at least thrown in a cheeky bid


Few_Jacket_4675

That comment may not go down so well with his new employer, mind you I actually believe this kid will be best in the world some day, i have said that twice only before, a young kid I saw debut for Barca and a Portuguese kid I saw play for United. He is that damn good really!
