Everyone makes the same Memphis Depay joke at Manchester United’s latest ‘signing’

Yet again the summer, Manchester United have another signing.

No, it's not Paul Pogba. It's not even a footballer, for that matter. Instead, United announced on Monday that they've bolstered their ever-growing army of official partners with Virgin Money becoming their... *breathes in*...  'Official Retail Financial Services Partner in the UK'. https://twitter.com/richardbranson/status/754952633388044290 Various pictures of a beaming Richard Branson began to circulate after the announcement, but it was the following image, showing him holding up a United shirt with his surname and the number seven on the back, which seemed to grab the most attention. https://twitter.com/ManUtd/status/754948974801330176 Some of the finest players in the club's history have worn the number seven shirt, but it's fair to say that its current owner, Memphis Depay, didn't have the best of debut seasons at Old Trafford last year. His failure to hit top form, coupled with the arrival of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, have seen some suggest that the Dutchman may be given a different squad number in time for Jose Mourinho's first competitive match in a few weeks while someone new will take up the mantle of the number seven shirt. Some reports have claimed it will be Ibrahimovic; others have hinted it may be Anthony Martial. So, the sight of Branson with the number seven shirt was always going to result in lots of people making the same joke, wasn't it? https://twitter.com/MaximumMartial/status/755048364333465600 https://twitter.com/gmattheus116/status/754978046801686528 https://twitter.com/sohailll3/status/754971614295396352 https://twitter.com/Ahnaf_Rahman/status/754950078461255680 https://twitter.com/SmnLlyd5/status/754970330972774400 God love the internet. Nothing if not predictable.
