Manchester United star Aiden Haven has posed a challenge to his rivals, but there isn’t much evidence to back it up.
Above – what was he thinking?
Because Manchester United won’t win the world just because they beat the worst team in the Premier League once.
The rest of United’s rivals will not be intimidated by this result. But that didn’t stop Aiden Haven from taking on other teams after United’s 4-1 win at Molineux.
Perhaps it’s the exuberance of youth? After all, Heaven is only 19 years old.
Perhaps he was still high on the emotion of helping the team score four points in one game for the second time this season, and was in a good mood. However, they are an opponent that has conceded 40 goals in just 18 games this season.
Or maybe it was just another example of how an unwarranted sense of entitlement and arrogance still exists at a club where real success is expected but never achieved.

“I don’t think anyone will be able to stop me if I play like this,” Ten said with a straight face. “We just do what we’ve done every game.
“I hope we can go to Europe next season and I think we will. That’s where Manchester United belong.”
United do not “belong” to Europe. They don’t belong anywhere. A note to heaven. United are like any other club in the sense that they have no divine right to be at the top of the Champions League or Premier League.
Most people would argue that Leeds United are a top-flight club. But that didn’t stop them from spending years in the Championship, right?
We must earn the privilege of competing at the highest level nationally and internationally.
That’s why Heaven & Co are spending midweek this season with nothing to do but watch the Champions League or Europa League on TV instead of playing.
For his sake, let’s just hope teams like Arsenal and Manchester City don’t get so focused on more important things this week that they miss the divine message.
For the record, the last time United scored and beat someone was without a win in their next three games. Haven is still a teenager and is finding his way into professional football at one of the most high-profile clubs in the world.
He started just four league games for United.
In other words, he, like his team, still has a long way to go before he’s in a position to make such bullish statements.
He still has a lot to learn and may have to do this the hard way.
