"Manchester United's recent resurgence has sparked optimism both on and off the pitch, with a growing sense that momentum is finally building at Old Trafford. Four consecutive victories under interim manager Michael Carrick have steadied the club after a turbulent period, while an unexpected off-field storyline has captured the imagination of supporters online. At the centre of that lighter moment is superfan Frank Ilett, better known on social media as The United Strand."
"Speaking about the story, Fernandes played down its significance, insisting he is focused solely on himself and the team rather than online trends. Asked about the United supporter, Fernandes responded, as reported by the Mirror: I need to book for myself, I don't look at other people. I don't look if they need to go to the hair dresser or not, that is not important for me."
