Marcus Rashford tames Wolves to send Manchester United into second
Marcus Rashford’s deflected strike deep into stoppage time moved Manchester United to within two points of Liverpool at the top of the Premier League with a 1-0 win over Wolves on Tuesday. United laboured for long spells against a youthful Wolves side, but got a huge slice of fortune in the 93rd minute when Rashford’s shot hit Romain Saiss to leave Rui Patricio helpless. Victory takes Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men up to second and continues an excellent run of 23 points from the last possible 27 to mount an unlikely title challenge after a slow start to the season. Despite enjoying one more day’s rest amid the packed festive schedule than their opponents, Solskjaer made six changes from the side that drew 2-2 at Leicester on Boxing Day. Edinson Cavani made just his second Premier League start...

Bruno Fernandes: I believe I’ll improve on last season
Manchester United ace Bruno Fernandes feels he’ll be even better this new season after a successful first six months in England. The Portuguese midfielder arrived at Old Trafford in January for £55million from Sporting and changed the course of United’s season. He said, “It’s instinct. Over the years, because of the position in which I was playing, I developed my ability to move around and look forward. “When we lose the ball, I try to be the first one to react and to call on the other attacking players to help out in winning back possession. “And obviously for me, to be able to build up the play, to have the ball and provide passes to my team-mates to enable them to score goals – it’s very important. “I think that’s what I need to do a bit more because, yes, I’ve provided some assists but...
Saul Niguez could be Manchester United’s next signing – report
Manchester United are targeting Atletico Madrid star Saul Niguez again after losing out on Jadon Sancho, according to The Daily Star. The 25-year-old is considered to be one of the world’s best midfielders and has long been coveted by the Red Devils. The Star claims an offer was made for the player last summer. However, his nine-year contract, which has a €150 million (£135m) release clause, has made him untouchable in the transfer market to date. ‘But Old Trafford bosses believe Atletico’s shock exit from the Champions League at the hands of RB Leipzig will boost their chances of luring Niguez to Manchester,’ The Star claims. ‘Niguez … is believed to be considering his future at the Spanish outfit. ‘[He] has become disillusioned at Atletico.’ Niguez also refused to rule out a move away fr...
Mourinho aims a dig at Man Utd star, some of their fans respond: ‘Salty’, ‘Back at it again’
Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has taken a swipe at the Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes. When asked about the Portuguese midfielder’s impact at Old Trafford since signing for the Red Devils in January, the former Manchester United manager claimed that Fernandes has proven to be a good penalty taker so far. Mourinho said to MEN: “Bruno came in, was fit, played very well, improved the United team and also proved to be a great penalty taker, one of the best in the world, because he had about 20 to score.” Bruno Fernandes has netted six penalties for Manchester United so far. Although most of his goals have come from the spot, he has done a lot more than just scoring so far. The Portuguese international has transformed Manchester United’s midfield with his technical ability, pass...
Phil Neville blasts Ole Gunnar Solskjaer over poor selection
Former Manchester United star Phil Neville was not pleased with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team selection against Chelsea in the FA Cup. The Red Devils lost 3-1 in the semi final at Wembley after a limp display, and in part due to goalkeeping mistakes from David De Gea. But Neville felt the team selection from manager Solskjaer was a key reason for the loss. The result means Chelsea face Arsenal in the final, while both United and Chelsea have to play the final two Premier League games of their seasons to try and secure a spot in the top four. “I don’t think United had a player on the pitch, maybe [Bruno] Fernandes, that played well,” the former Manchester United player explained on TV. “I think Ole picked the wrong team and the wrong system.” Get more stories like this on Twitter You Deserve ...
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer signals u-turn in transfer priorities
Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has hinted that the club’s transfer priorities for this summer have changed toward the defence. It has been believed for some time that the first priority is a right winger, with Jadon Sancho the top target. There has also been much talk of United signing another attacking midfielder, potentially Aston Villa’s Jack Grealish, and a striker has also been sought, with the Reds narrowly missing out on capturing Norwegian star Erling Haaland in January. But when asked about planning for the future at the Southampton pre-match press conference, the boss suggested that the situation is under review. ‘There’s so many small decisions and of course transfers sometimes are out of our hands as well,’ he said. ‘If the team is going well, [you ask yourself]...

Jadon Sancho looked up to former Manchester United star Wayne Rooney
Manchester United target and Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho has admitted looking up to Wayne Rooney as a youngster. The Bundesliga winger is believed to be Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s priority signing for the summer despite the increasing uncertainty surrounding football. Sancho represents the missing piece to United’s otherwise exciting attacking in Marcus Rashford as a left-winger, Anthony Martial as a striker and Bruno Fernandes as an attacking-midfielder. The former Manchester City man would slot in with ease in the right-wing position and give Solskjaer a new dimension to his attack. Sancho has been dropping a few hints over a potential move to the Red Devils with Dortmund reportedly looking for a somewhat realistic fee of €100m. In the video above, Sancho says: “Who did I look up to ...
