    Far from our native schore.
    Look back,been here before,

    Yo spectacular performance as captain against Arsenal in FA was superb. Thanks for not embarrasing your dad Julian who appeared on Uganda’s WBS TV analysing the match with praises for a solid ManU defence.Keep up the spirit for the rest of the matches. You are the best captain and defender for United.
