Bobby Charlton woke up to the bright news on Monday in Japan that his Manchester United had beaten Arsenal to close the gap on the Premier League leaders.
But after paying a visit to the J-Village — which the England legend himself named more than 10 years ago — the 1-0 win at Old Trafford suddenly didn't seem all that important.
"It's incidental," Charlton said of Sunday's victory that United badly needed to revive its campaign. "It is incidental, as much as I was very happy when I got the result."
