OK, just in case your knowledge of 2005/06 UK Premier League transfer window drama isn't as hot as it used to be, here's the cliff notes for understanding this ad:
Back in the day, 19-year-old Nigerian football prodigy John Obi Mikel was being chased by both Manchester United and Chelsea, reportedly held talks with Sir Alex Ferguson to finalise a move to Old Trafford, before dramatically opting for Stamford Bridge instead. Got that? Now watch the spot.
