Manchester United fans react angrily to Ashley Young's one year contract extension

Manchester United captain Ashley Young will not be joining Inter Milan next summer neither will he be signing a pre-contract agreement with other clubs having be given a one-year contract extension.  Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is a huge fan of the 34-year-old and feels his presence at the club will be useful to the younger players in the team.  Although, the decision to keep him at the club haven't gone down well with fan who vented angrily on different social medias.  Some of the tweet reads; "How the might have fallen..

3 reasons why Manchester United can beat Liverpool at Old Trafford


For the second time this season, Jurgen Klopp will be able to call upon his dependable first eleven for a Premier League clash. 

The good part of this situation is that Klopp will be able to play his best 11 against a depleted and disorganized Manchester United. He will want to knock them off their parch and probably end the tenure of yet another manager by blowing them away at Old Trafford. 

Liverpool are aiming to become the second team in history to win 18 consecutive matches after Manchester City as well as the first to win their first nine games in a row. In fact the Reds are 15 points ahead of United after 8 games which is the biggest point ever in Premier League history.

But that counts to nothing knowing the history between both clubs. Liverpool haven't beaten United at Old Traford since 2014. While their phenomenal front three have struggled to score goals at the theater of dreams. 

Roberto Firmino is the only Liverpool attacker to have managed to score a goal {just once} at Old Trafford. Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah have both been in caged brilliantly. 

With Ben Wassaka, Paul Pogba, Luke Shaw and a host of superstars expected to return, you can expect more of the same. Old Trafford will be buzzing on Sunday and that positive vibe would energize Ole and his team. 

United will be tough to beat but, the present Liverpool team is just too strong to be honest. The team is on fire and stopping them will be very hard. But, football have a tricky way of upsetting the bookmakers odds and turning a loser to a winner. 

If United succeed in beating Liverpool or drawing them, it will a phenomenal achievement for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his team. 

While a defeat won't be that bad, why? Nobody in his wildest dream think Manchester United will beat a team with Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah breathing down thier average defence.

No Ronaldo, no goals! Real Madrid in self destruct mode as Champions League exit looms

What an impact a single player can make in a team. Real Madrid had that player once in Cristiano Ronaldo, a superstar who single handily created chances and won matches on his own.  He was able to win 14 trophies with Real Madrid did also manage to become the clubs' record goalscorer with 369 goals and assists 114.. He is arguably the greatest player ever to play for Real Madrid but the mistake Los Blancos made was not to find an adequate replacement for the 40 goals per season striker.  Real Madrid are in self destruct mode evident from their present struggle and lack of consistency. This season Madrid haven't won back to back games neither have they scored more than 20 goals this season.  The goalkeeping department is presently in shambles, Thibaut Courtois have conceded nine goals in his last 14 shots. In fact, half of the 24 shots he's faced this season have flown past him. The midfield is decline while the attacker apart from Karim Benzema are not scoring goal...

Napoli ready to sell Lorenzo Insigne to Liverpool for $60m after player mutiny

Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has reportedly sanctioned the sell of all his senior players after they bluntly refused to attend a training session scheduled to be held at the Castel Volturno training ground.  The training sesssion was meant to arrest their decline and help them keep pace with Juventus and Inter Milan who are pulling clear of the rest. Napoli are seventh in the Seria A table, 13 points behind Juventus after just 12 games.  The ring leader and captain of the team Lorenzo Insigne is free to leave Napoli this January if any club can offer $60m for his service. Jurgne Klopp is a huge fan of the 28-year-old Italian international and has never hidden his desire to sign him when he is available. Insigne is not the only player available, the likes of Piotr Zielinski, Allan, Kalidou Koulibaly, Callejon and so many more are free to leave this Janaury. 

Why an injury to Roberto Firmino could end Liverpool's Premier League title chase

Jurgen Klopp once said Roberto Firmino is the world best striker and he wasn't wrong with that statement. Firmino might not be so prolific, he has something rarely seen in modern strikers.  He presses the opposition relentlessly, link up play intelligently and creates goalscorer chances for others. His on and off ball movement is exceptionally good. His daft touches, feints and close control are so good its reminiscent of Brazil legend Ronaldo Dilma.  What makes him really good his tenacious running and carve a goal-scoring opportunities for his strike partners- Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.  Do you know out of 50 goals Sadio Mane have scored for Liverpool, Firmino have assisted or have a hand in 32 of those goals. And out of the 76 goals Mohamed Salah has scored for Liverpool,  Firmino has assisted 35 of those goals.  Without him, Liverpool would've struggled to win all eight matches this season. Cause frankly, they don't have any other striker that c...

Injury blow: Pep Guardiola confirms Ederson will miss Liverpool clash

Pep Guardiola has confirmed that Ederson will miss the trip to Anfield due to any injury..  He will be replaced by Claudio Bravo who he says is a good keeper and a two times Copa America winner with Chile.  Asked during his press conference if Ederson will be fit for the clash, Guardiola said: "He is not able to play tomorrow.  "On Sunday he cannot play. We have another top keeper. We won the Carabao Cup and FA Cup thanks to Claudio. He is an exceptional goalkeeper".  Asked if Manchester City are not vulnerable without Ederson deputizing in-between the sticks, Klopp replied angrily.  "Why should i not be confident about my players and my team? Why do you like ask me this questions? "I see him every day in training. We won't lose from Claudio. You have to respect him. He won the Copa America, respect that guy, he's an incredible goalkeeper".
