Manchester United Players Star In Another Awful Advert

Wayne Rooney, Juan Mata, Chris Smalling and more Manchester United stars take on aliens in a strange promotion between the club and the new Independence Day film.

Independence Day: Resurgence is the sequel to popular 1996 film Independence Day and centres around the human race fighting against another alien attack.

There's no Will Smith or Randy Quaid this time around - but who needs them when you've got some of United's best players giving the worst acting performance since records began.

Rooney

Rooney, Mata, Smalling appear in it alongside Daley Blind and Ashley Young - and they deliver some questionable iines as they take on the aliens in fighter jets.

No. really.

Prepare yourselves because you cannot unsee this travesty...
