Feels a bit strange having an MLS club talk about "history over hype" when they've only existed since 2015?
49 years ago, the Minnesota Kicks were formed. The state's first professional football team. So, in the long tradition of teams claiming for themselves the history of a completely different club that we've before them - like Crystal Palace's embarrassing claim to be a nineteenth century football club, or AFC Wimbledon claiming to have won the FA Cup - Minnesota United "claim" to have a heritage that's almost as old as... David Beckham.
Fully support the trolling of opponents by social media teams. Beckham should be more thick skinned.
But English club social media trolling is laced with humour and good natured banter. This is typically American (at least in current circumstances), rude and divisive (and wrong).

Why can’t you take the piss out of a glamorous, rich team when you beat them? Get stuck in, I say.

Minnesota wouldn't know culture if it drowned them in spray can cheese.
