Yeah controlled explosion is stand protocol, could have been your standard bag that was left on its own etcetc.

Security at Old Trafford has been noticeably increased in the past 12 months due to intel that's been received.
The thinking at United, of late, has been that they are prepared for something to happen and there is an awareness that the profile of the club and the sheer number of people who can be squeezed into OT makes them a target. In fact the glass front of the stadium has been coated in a shatterproof substance.
What makes today's events of major concern is that there has always been a confidence that security would be tight enough for nothing to get into the Stadium. That doesn't seem to have been the case today.

Controlled explosion only happens when there is a high certainly that it is an improvised explosive device(IED). Next course of action will be moving it to a safe location and detonating it. If it is done on location, this means that the EOD personnel feels that moving the IED is not safe or not possible. So an on-site controlled explosion is done. This is the normal way when war relics are discovered.

I have no idea what the package is at Old Trafford.

Experts blew up an "incredibly lifelike explosive device" at the stadium, and searches are ongoing.

Gizmo is the perfect example of a sore sporting crybaby. Benfica won 4-0 and is the fair champion after a season where at one point sporting was 7 points ahead.

Rui Vitória demonstrated having balls of steel. Great man and great manager.

So when does Arsenal have a victory 2nd place parade and Wenger announce his contract extension to 2030?

to be fair, arsenal did the least bad of the presumed top teams. I personally don't see how this season is an argument for the wenger-out crowd.

Honestly I think PL is becoming so competitive that next season, every single team should be reasonably content with getting top 4.

Except that is been Wenger's philosophy for the past 5+ years stay in the top 4 and they had the title in the bag in January and of course guess what they let it slip. But hey 2nd fuck yeah! But stick to limited signing of injury prone players, raise ticket prices once more and let's see how far that gets us.

Title in the bag ? If they had the title in the bag. I am one smart cookie for betting 50 quid in Dec they would fall off. Then again I also bet 50 that City would win so not so smart.

Well, who would you want arsenal to sign instead right now? Man United won the league ferguson's last season, since then they've gotten 7th, 4th and (presumably) 5th. Arsenal was 4th the last season ferguson was manager, since then have gotten 4th, 3rd, and now second. City was 2nd, 1st, 2nd, now 4th. Chelsea 3rd, 3rd, 1st, now 10th. Basically last 4 years, Arsenal is the only top team with a positive trend. (I used fergie's last year to show what type of instability might be the consequence when changing managers after a couple decades).

I guess you could argue that they should've pushed for Pep when he was available, or Klopp when he was available, but it seems to me a difficult business to fire Wenger for someone unknown, and it seems similarly difficult to try to get someone known without first firing Wenger..

Meanwhile Pep is taking over Man City, Mourhino might be heading to Man United and Rafa possibly for Everton, with Tottenham already looking to strengthen during the summer. Wenger is planning for vacation.
