Put that in your pipe and smoke it, Sir Jim Ratcliffe. Don McTominay, otherwise known as Scott on these shores, was barely snapped without a cigarette in his mouth during Napoli's title celebrations.
All while Manchester United are jetting off for a money-spinning tour despite running on fumes and leaking credibility like a punctured tyre.
If there was a moment to sum up United's fall from grace, it wasn't that Europa League final loss to a team that never wins trophies.
Nor was it the defeat to ASEAN All-Stars. Nor was it Ruben Amorim persisting with a formation that his players aren't able to play.
It was McTominay's overhead kick and Romelu Lukaku's bruising solo goal that led to Napoli winning the Serie A title.
And that was compounded by Jadon Sancho winning and scoring in a European final.
Their former team-mates must be looking on in envy, trapped in a club where ambition feels like a dirty word.
Every player at Old Trafford has been put up for sale and, at the moment, the grass is always greener.
Ratcliffe must have a queue longer than the Trafford Centre car park on Christmas Eve outside his office door.
United can't even light up a barbecue, all while McTominay is smoking like a chimney.
Rio out
RIO Ferdinand left TNT Sport after the Champions League final to focus on his personal media business, including his popular podcast.
It leaves you wondering where TV companies will be 10 years from now, maybe struggling to attract the top names, with personal projects becoming ever more profitable.
