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..

Why Juventus no longer needs Cristiano Ronaldo to win games and trophies


For the first time in Cristiano Ronaldo's career he is no longer the star man in a team, the go-getter neither is he good enough to play 90 minutes of football.

Fabio Capello a two times Champions League winner manager with Real Madrid and AC Milan made a telling revelation of the player.. He revealed Ronaldo hasn't dribbled past any player for 3 years, its just step overs and occasional cut backs. 

Ronaldo no longer has the speed and dynamism he has shown in his younger days and now needs more time to recover.

He has lost that physical strength to play every 3 days and now needs more time to recover. At best, Ronaldo will perform at the highest level if played every week not after three days.

Capello had this to say about Ronaldo who vented his anger when Maurizio Sarri decided to take sub him in the 55th minute against AC Milan after watching him struggle. 

Ronaldo didn't like it, his childish tantrum baffled Capello who took a vile dig at him and revealed what other top managers think about him. 

"I didn't like this, it wasn't nice", Capello told Sky Sports Italia. "He must be a champions even when he comes off the pitch. 

"The truth is that Cristiano Ronaldo hasn't dribbled past an opponent for three years. I did the commentary when he usually took the double step and left you there. Inside him is a super-champion, the best of all, but now there is Dybala and Douglas Costa, who made two sensational goals. 

"Dybala in excellent condition can make the difference, as can Douglas Costa. They win games without Ronaldo. Juve seemed dependent on him, instead the great squad and the quality of the players helps them win anyway".

Juventus is the first team in Seria A history to win 8 consecutive Scudetto titles and this season they've started in fine fashion by winning 10 games and drawing 2. 

"Bravo Sarri, who had the courage to take him off, it takes personality, especially thinking that all the players in the squad can play and make a difference. Cristiano did it for a while, but now it's not him and he must recover- especially on a physical level. He does not have the speed and dynamism he has shown at other times". 

Cristiano Ronaldo as we all know has a giant mentality and won't be thrown off balance by what Fabio Capello or anyone's says about him.. He will want to prove he is the best player at Juventus and win them games from now single handily.  

But the fact remains, he is no longer the 25-year-old exciting winger that we all fall in love with. Ronaldo is 34 and now needs more time to rest and recover. 

It will be wise for him to retire from the international scene and focus more on club football.

Manchester United 1- 1 Liverpool: Marcus Rashford is a beast and 5 things we learnt

For a while it felt like Manchester United were superior to Liverpool as their moved the ball much quicker, created good chances and opened the scoring through a magnificent ball to Marcus Rashford.  Rashford for one was just unstoppable, his energy, swagger and relentless running scared the death out of Liverpool's defense including Van Dijk who struggled all game to contain him.  He did score the goal that would've been the match winner but one area of judge from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer changed everything.  Taking off Rashford allowed Liverpool's defense to push forward and pile pressure on United's brittle back line.. It allowed Andrew Robertson cross a delicious ball into the 12-yard box which evaded everyone except Adam Lallana who needed just a tap in to score and restore parity.  Although, Liverpool did have the lion share of possession but without their star man, Mohamed Salah to stretch United defense, they really struggled to create chances....

Mane, Salah, Alisson or Van Dijk: Which Liverpool player deserve to win the Ballon d'Or?

For the first time in history, seven Liverpool players have made the shortlist of the Ballon d'Or.  Alisson Becker, Van Dijk, Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Trent Alexander Arnold and Gini Wijnaldum have all made the list but the list don't feel right.  They're Liverpool players that really deserve to be that list. The likes of Andrew Robertson who is currently the best left back in the world contributed 11 assists with 2 goals last season en-route to Liverpool winning the Champions League and the UEFA Super Cup should've been included.  Joel Matip also deserve to be included. His the best 'right centre back' in the world and the only defender capable of dribbling past defenders while marauding forward.  There's no other defender in world football who can take the ball from the back, skip past two or three defenders before lying out a pass or shooting accurately to goal. Matip is the only defender who posses that trait and that is enoug...

Fabinho could miss Manchester City clash: So should Liverpool rest him against Aston Villa?

Fabinho might have struggled for 5-6 months to make Liverpool's first team when he first arrived but now, he is one of those names Jurgen Klopp never omits in the first team..  He plays every game nowadays and makes key contributions to the team's game plan. His tackles, interceptions and dynamism remains one of the key reasons Liverpool are yet to lose a Premier League game this season.  But, the Brazilian tackles haven't been always good and have resulted to four yellow cards. If he picks up another against Aston Villa he will miss Liverpool's title deciding clash against Manchester City at Anfield.  No disrespect to Aston Villa, they're a good team but Liverpool don't really need Fabinho in the team to win.. Its going to tough no doubt about that, but the likes of Jordan Henderson and James Milner can play in his position and Liverpool will still win.  So should Liverpool play him or rest for the penultimate clash with Manchester City?
