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.. " Another aggrieved post reads: "The more Man U fans want to escape the more the owners give them pain". Another reads: "This Ole and Co. are really taking us for granted. You can't be renewing Ashley's contract while there are real loopholes to cover.. it's getting out of hand". Sad ones goes this way: "Why, just why would you do that?

Vincent Kompnay has dismissed the assertion that Manchester City must now sign a defender having lost more grounds on the Liverpool.
City are nine points below Liverpool in 4th place and will a resurgent Chelsea when the Premier League returns.
Another defeat or draw could end City's hope of winning a third consecutive Premier League tile but Kompany don't want people to judge to quickly. He recalled that City always struggle to beat Liverpool at Anfield with or without him in the starting lineup therefore, people should just relax.
Even Liverpool have struggled to win the league in 30 years so what is the fuss?
"We always struggle at Anfield. I said that on Super Sunday, you're fighting 25 years of not winning at Anfield and that's difficult, it's two games in one game- you're playing great team and you're fighting history", Kompany told Sky Sports.
"Flip it around and the same will happen for Liverpool- they will fight the history of not winning the league for 30 years. That should be to City's advantage i still think. As to the defence, the best way for City to defend in the past has been to attack. They have no reason to change that.
"As soon as they start reconnecting with the best performances, i'm convinced that we can see a sustainable amount of wins".
Kompany might be right in his assessment of City's strength in attack but as the saying goes: 'Attack win you games but defensive wins you trophies'.
City do not have a reliable defense, they will win games no doubt about it but, when it comes to winning trophies, they will surely struggle.
So should City sign a defender or rely on their attack?
