Wayne Rooney was boo-ed on England's Wembley Return. This shows that the English have not been happy with his performances of late. However, his team mates have showed their support for the Manchester United Captain. Manager Gareth Southgate was left baffled by the reaction to Rooney on England's first return to HQ since June, with Jordan Henderson and John Stones also standing staunchly behind their skipper. "He wears his heart on his sleeve and gives 110 percent and you can see that in every performance. I am a bit shocked that [booing] happened," said Stones. "I thought Wayne was brilliant. He has been every time he has played for England. His team mates have dropped encouraging words to anyone who cares to listen: "He's our captain and our leader and … [Read more...]

Is Love making Martial distracted from Manchester United?
Ije love o! Sources say that the reason Anthony Martial has been under performing after a 58 million euro deal is because his baby mama left him after three years of being together! Anthony Martial came off the bench to break the deadlock against Stoke City at Old Trafford on Sunday, scoring with a wonderful curling effort in a game United eventually drew 1-1. However, it was the Frenchman’s first goal in nine games! He struggled to rediscover the scintillating form he showed after joining United in a £58million deal from Monaco last year. Close sources attribute this distraction to his split from Samantha Jacquelinet (far left and far right), his partner of three years and mother of their baby daughter Peyton, earlier this year following … [Read more...]
Manchester United: Has the Mighty Fallen?
Jose Mourinho insisted in the build-up to Sunday’s clash with Stoke City that he needs more time to get things the way he wants them at Manchester United. And, after Joe Allen made the most of an error by David de Gea to earn a 1-1 draw, his assertion that United are nowhere near the finished article is clear for all to see. After Anthony Martial had come off the bench to give them the lead with 21 minutes to go, this was a game they should have been able to see out with something to spare. Instead, their normally-reliable goalkeeper – Player of the Year for three seasons running – spilled what seemed a straight-forward save and they were made to pay. But, while De Gea will be thrust under the spotlight in a game when his opposite number Lee Grant earned … [Read more...]
Mourinho to hand key role to his friend, Sir Alex Ferguson
Jose Mourinho has moved to increase Sir Alex Ferguson's influence on decision-making at Old Trafford as part of the manager's efforts to return Manchester United to the summit of English football. Ferguson has been the most publicly prominent member of United's 'Football Club Board' since the Septuagenarian voluntarily stepped down as manager in the summer of 2013. His directorship, however, has been essentially ceremonial, with the main board of Manchester United PLC regularly ignoring his counsel on how the club should be run.qeup Though Ferguson was allowed to select his immediate successor as manager as a condition of his retirement, the nine-man PLC board have excluded him from the appointment processes that resulted in both Louis van Gaal in 2014, and … [Read more...]
I have got no issues with Mourinho – Juan Mata
Juan Mata has dismissed suggestions that he and Jose Mourinho endure a difficult working relationship. The 28-year-old was sold to Manchester United in 2014 while Jose Mourinho was manager of Chelsea. However the Spaniard has played an integral part in Manchester United's start to the season under Mourinho, scoring once and registering two assists in his four Premier League appearances. The No. 10 was instrumental in Manchester United's 4-1 win over Leicester City last Saturday , playing in his favourite number ten role instead of captain Wayne Rooney who was dropped to the bench. "My relationship with Mourinho has never been bad," Mata told Spanish radio station Cope. "Many lies were told about me and Mourinho when he arrived at the club this summer … [Read more...]
