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.. "  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? He is part of the dead wood that they need clearing out "This ...

Why Tottenham's decision to sack Mauricio Pochettino don't make sense

How do you replace a manager like that?  Muaricio Pochettino was arguably the best manager in the world last season having lead Tottenham Hotspur to the final of the Champions League  without signing a single player in 18 months despite having numerous injury problems and also playing most of last season at Wembley.  To reach the club first ever Champions League final was memorable and will take years for another manager to replicate that achievement.  This season might not have started as Spurs have planned. They've won just 3 times, drawn 5 and lost 4 and now sit 14 points off 4 placed Manchester City.  Yes! the Champions League gap is wide but a manager of such quality can turn things around in an instant once the club gives him the backing he wants, sign very good players and retain the service of players who have consistently proven they're good enough to stay. It will difficult finding another top class manager who let the president Deny Levy make all...

Why Harry Kane must consider joining Manchester City as Sergio Aguero's replacement

Harry Kane has reached the stage of his career when he has to think deeply about his future and ask himself if sticking with Tottenham Hotspur beyond this season will be good for his career or not.  The England international captain have spent 10 years at Spurs and only once have he come close to winning a meaningful trophy {2019 Champions League}. But in those years, Kane has developed into one of Europe's  top striker.  With Spurs he has scored 171 goals in 263 appearances and won the golden boot in 2 of the last 3 seasons.  Kane is top class striker but he knows he has to win trophies to become one of the best player in the world. He knows scoring goals without winning meaningful trophies is tantamount to a wasted career.  Players remember the number of trophies they won when they retire while fans idolize them for the trophy they managed to win for the club and their key contributions in winning them.  Kane knows he is already a legend at Tot...

10 years without a trophy! Its time Harry Kane ditch Tottenham Hotspur

Last season was memorable, Tottenham Hotspur were very close to lifting their first ever Champions League trophy. If they had won it, Spurs would've been the dream club of every elite player.  Superstars all over the world would've joined at the opportunity to play for them while the likes of Christian Eriksen, Vertonghen, Ross and others won't hesitate to extend their contract. But the defeat to Liverpool was sour and the bitter taste have lingered on till this very day.  Spurs have dropped to a level of mediocrity never seen before and questions are beginning to be asked about the manager's commitment to the club's course as well as players.  The top players are running down their contract with the view of moving else where there's a realistic chance of winning trophies.  That idea of leaving has gobsmacked Harry Kane who now knows he might never win a single trophy with Spurs despite having Mauricio Pochettino as his manager.  Why? Tott...

Manchester City stars reacts to Pep Guardiola returning to Bayern Munich

Vincent Kompany, Kevin De Bruyne and David Silva have all tagged reports linking Pep Guardiola to Bayern Munich as 'bulls**t'. Guardiola did manage Bayern Munich for three seasons and won 8 trophies before joining Manchester City back in 206. He left as a fulfilled man having joined Germany's biggest club, revolutionized their playing style and made them a force to reckon with.  Having achieved everything he wanted to at Bayern Munich, Guardiola took the next step in his managerial career by signing a contract with Manchester City.   His first season in the Premier League was difficult, City finished trophy-less but still managed to finish in the top four.  Surprisingly, he was nicknamed 'Fraudiola' by jealous fans who felt his style of play can never be implemented in the fast and furious Premier League.  But rather than run for cover, Guardiola was bold and courageous, he knew his style of play can be implemented in any league and still su...

Bernando Silva reveals what two interesting things about Liverpool

Manchester City star Bernando Silva has praised Liverpool's incredible display and their ability to see out game without a fuss. Silva did get City's consolation goal but he wasn't in the mood to talk about the penalty controversy but rather focused on how Liverpool play, their attacking style and atmosphere in Anfield.  Liverpool are nine points clear of City and 8 points clear of second placed team- Leicester City.  Asked first about the penalty controvers and later about the match, Bernando said:  "I have not seen it yet. You guys should analyse it not me. If i speak i will be in trouble. I don't want to speak. I have not watched it", a defiant Silva replied.  "I think we played one of the best sides in the world, it's never easy in a stadium like Anfield. We had started better than them when we conceded the first goal. First counter, first goal, you cannot give them an inch, because if you do they will take it and score goals".  ...

Jermaine Jenas: Christian Eriksen will consider joining Liverpool in the summer

Former Tottenham midfielder Jermaine Jenas is urging Christian Eriksen not to leave Spurs in hurry as the January transfer window draws closer.  Spurs chairman Daniel Levy will want to sell him to this January to realise some cash but Jenas feels it will be wise for him to stay until the end of the season.  Eriksen will be out of contract in the summer and will be free to join Europe's biggest club including Liverpool whose manager -Jurgen Klopp- is a huge admirer of the dane.   "I think the club were happy to let him leave but they just didn't get the figure that they wanted or Christian didn't get the club that he wanted", Jenas told The Mirror.  "If i was Eriksen and the bid didn't come in that i wanted to come in, i would sit tight, i wouldn't rush. Not only can i move for free in the summer, but that brings in Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, all the big hitters, Man Utd, even Liverpool.  "On top of that you have the huge windfall of w...

Rivaldo reveals why Pep Guardiola is convinced Man City will be champions and not Liverpool

Brazil legend Rivaldo has bruised aside the assertion that Pep Guardiola has given up in the title race due to Liverpool's 8 point gap in the league.  The Reds are unbeaten this season and have picked up maximum points to move 8 clear of Manchester City who suffered defeats to Norwich City and then Wolves at Etihad Stadium.  Rivaldo who played alongside Guardiola at Barcelona for four seasons has revealed that the Spanish tactician is very calm, experienced and possess a strong winning mentality.  Asked if Guardiola can overtake Liverpool once again and win the Premier League title, Rivaldo said:  "Personally, knowing Guardiola having shared the Barcelona changing room with him, i know he is a very calm, experienced and strong person, who knows his players well", Rivaldo told Betfair.  "With so many more matches to play in this Premier League title race, i think he knows Manchester City can overturn their eight-point deficit to Liverpool.

Scholes: Liverpool have done something Manchester United have never done

Manchester United legend Paul Scoles has lavished praises on Liverpool who is said have already wrapped up the Premier League title.  Scholes can't see anybody catching Liverpool this season who are 13 points off Leicester City and 14 points off reigning champions Manchester City.  The scary part of Liverpool's is that they could move 16 points clear of second place Leicester City if they beat West Ham in their outstanding match.  "I don't think we'd {Manchester United} ever won it by Christmas", Scholes told Premier League Productions.  "This team- look it's game over, there's nobody {who is going to catch them}. I think the question now is how many points they going to win it by, i think they're so good.  "City have a team if any team could get anywhere near them but i don't expect that to happen. I just think Liverpool are too good. I think the biggest fight we've got now this season is probably the relegation fight ...

Gundogan reveals 2 games Manchester City must win OR lose the Premier League title to Liverpool

IIkay Gundogan still believes Manchester City have a big chance to win the Premier League title but must win two games.  City will play Liverpool twice at the Eithad Stadium and Anfield and a victory in both matches will certainly throw Jurgen Klopp's men off balance.  Its a known fact that Liverpool have won their matches this season and now eight points clear of City after eight games.  But Gundogan still has faith that Liverpool will drop points when the games become intense.  "The situation is not a new one for us - we were seven points behind in January of last season, which is a house number, a big gap", Gundogan said after scoring a brace for Germany in a 3-0 win over Estonia.  "But we play against Liverpool twice more, we have the direct duels and we can cut the gap to two points. Everything is still on", Gundogan told Sky Sports.  Manchester City will play Liverpool on November 10 and return fixture will be played on April 4th at Etihad ...

Van Nistelrooy is absolutely wrong! Lionel Messi don't deserve to win the Ballon d'Or

uud van Nistelrooy assertion that Lionel Messi deserves the Ballon d'Or ahead of other nominated players is absolutely wrong.  Lionel Messi is indeed a world class player, a dream player every team in the world will want to have but, last season wasn't his best campaign. He did score a respectable tally of goals -50 goals in 54 appearances- which is phenomenal but winning the Ballon d'Or takes more than that this days.  In the grandest of stage, Messi failed to light it up. He failed in Europe {the Champions League} and Brazil {the Copa America}. In both competition, Messi struggled to make any meaningful impact.  Barcelona were blown away by Liverpool at Anfield despite arriving the ground with a 3-0 win with Messi scoring one of the best free-kicks in the tournaments history. And with Argentina who finished 3rd in the Copa America, Messi found the net just once.  Dani Alves 34, was the player of the Tournament and not Messi who was...

Injury boast! 4 Manchester City stars returns in time to face Crystal Palace

Kevin De Bruyne, Sergio Aguero, Benjamin Mendy and John Stones will both been in contention to start for Manchester City after training with the first team on Monday ahead of their weekend game with Crystal Palace.  John Stones will provide the much needed defensive cover for City who have already 8 points adrift of Liverpool after just 8 games.  Selhurst Palace is to easy place for City, they managed to win 2 of their last five games there, while conceding 5 as to 9 goals scored.  De Bruyne though will be tasked with opening up Roy Hodgson's well drilled defense and provide the incisive passes needed for Sergio Aguero or Raheem Sterling to score the winning goals.  Pep Guardiola and City know that Liverpool have proritized winning the Premier League title this season and will do everything possible to win it. They lose a game but maybe one or two.
