Lebouef blasts Fernandes after United lose to Villareal

Frank LeBouef has revealed that he was disappointed and annoyed by Bruno Fernandes' underwhelming performance for Manchester United in the Europa League final against Villareal. The Portuguese star deputized as United captain in the absence of the injured Harry Maguire but was unable to inspire the team to victory which crowned another trophyless season for the Red Devils. The Red Devils appeared to be on course after drawing level through Edinson Cavani but the Yellow Submarines neutralized their threats with ease and triumphed in the ensuing marathon penalty shootout. Fernandes converted his penalty kick to keep the Red Devils on course for the title but was nullified for a very large part of the 120 minutes of action and the former Chelsea star was angered by his constant compl...

Guardiola and Solskjaer refuse to talk about Kane

Harry Kane's future at Tottenham Hotspur continues to be in doubt but the managers of the top clubs linked with him ahead of the summer transfer window chose to avoid transfer talks concerning the Three Lions captain. The Englishman has reportedly told Tottenham that he wants to leave after being frustrated with the club's lack of major progress in recent seasons. The likes of Manchester City, Chelsea, and Manchester United are the English clubs who may be able to afford the striker in the summer and have been heavily linked with a move for him.

Donny van de Beek thought he was a big boy by joining Man Utd

Donny van de Beek has struggled since he joined Manchester United from Ajax and is yet to establish himself as a key player under Solskjaer. The Dutchman is yet to replicate the form that saw Man United go all out for his signature. Regardless, the midfielder has been accused of thinking he is a big boy by joining the Red Devils. The midfielder has been restricted to very few minutes on the pitch as the likes of Scott McTominay, Fred, and Paul Pogba rank above him in the pecking order at the club. According to Dutch legend Marco van Basten, van de Beek thought he was too big for his own boots and this prompted him to make a move to England when he had not yet matured. He noted that the 24-year-old's present situation can be likened to the fact that the grass is not always greener ...

Maguire could be out for weeks; Solskjaer gives update

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has disclosed that they could be without Harry Maguire for a few days or a few weeks as they wait to assess the damage to his ankle. He admitted that he will be forced to make major changes for the match against Leicester City on Tuesday.

Solskjaer was concerned with his captain's withdrawal from the game and ruled him out of Tuesday's game with Leicester although he pointed out that any further prognosis on the injury would be too soon. “The boy [El Ghazi]landed on top of him and he twi...
