About
Blud Thinks He’s On The Team and Who Invited My Man Blud, also known as Bro Thinks He’s On The Team, is a catchphrase used to make fun of people in photos and memes who want to be a part of a certain group (like a sports team) but obviously aren't part of the group even though they're trying hard to be or pretending to be. The person is most often referred to by the slang term "Blud" and labeled with a red circle. The most prominent meme in the trend is a photo of Drake sitting with the Kentucky NCAA basketball team while wearing the same warm-up outfits as the players.
Origin
On June 20th, 2021, the YouTube[1] channel of Adidas Football posted a video called, "Welcome to Speedfulness | X Speedflow Experience," which announced the company's new collaboration.[2] The YouTube video showed a Zoom call with many professional footballers including Mohamed Salah, Karim Benzema and Scott McTominay, among others. The video received roughly 152,100 views over one year (shown below).
Sometime in late 2021, a currently unknown meme creator on iFunny posted a screenshot of the Adidas Zoom call, circling Manchester United player Scott McTominay and writing, "Who invited my man blud 😭😂" (shown below). The first known repost of the meme was uploaded by Twitter[3] user M_Shass on August 5th, 2021, captioning it, "Arsenal in the race to sign Messi." The tweet received over 950 likes in one year.

Spread
The meme was reposted to places like Facebook[4] in October 2021 by the page 101GreatGoalsCom, gaining roughly 3,800 likes in one year. Various football-centric pages on Twitter used the catchphrase outside of the photo's context, like in a tweet posted by Twitter[5] user CAN1NHO on October 13th, 2021, which gained roughly 9,900 likes in one year (shown below, left). On October 23rd, 2021, Twitter[6] user and YouTuber DannyAaronsFUT used it to caption a photo of him and his friends, gaining roughly 14,600 likes over the same time period (shown below, right).
