Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says fans will "see a reaction" when his side take on Watford on Saturday (15:00 GMT). United are sixth in the table after a run of just four wins in 12 games. Following the international break, the 48-year-old says that everyone at the club is working together to turn their form around. "The players, staff, myself and club are working toward one goal; to improve and get better results," he said. United have surprised many observers by sticking with Solskjaer after their poor run, with two of their four wins in 12 coming through late winners and another after an injury-time David de Gea penalty save. The comprehensive nature of the 2-0 home defeat by Manchester City immediately before the international break made the result, in its own way, as demoralising as the record 5-0 home loss to Liverpool a fortnight before. United's embarrassing 5-0 defeat was their heaviest ever at home to Liverpool, as well as...

The international break has so far not been overly kind to Manchester United on the injury front. Midfielder Paul Pogba suffered a thigh injury in France's first training session on Monday, meaning, according to reports in France, that could now be sidelined for up to ten weeks, Edinson Cavani has not linked up with the Uruguay squad because of a tendon injury and Luke Shaw played no part in England's win over Albania at Wembley Stadium. However, Harry Maguire shook off his poor form at club level to score for his country on Friday evening in what United will hope to be a boost to his confidence. Meanwhile, Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers is continuing to be strongly linked with becoming United's next manager if they decide to sack Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, amid ongoing pressure. Five players United could offload in January. The January transfer window is quickly approaching and Manchester United could use it to their advantage. United have had a difficult start to the s...

A small group of Manchester United supporters on Saturday protested against the club’s owners at Old Trafford. With United not in action during the international break, a protest had been planned on social media by fans as they continue to voice their opposition to the Glazer family. Green and gold images – which have been synonymous with previous protests in reference to the club’s original colours when they were founded as Newton Heath – were shared along with the #GlazerOut hashtag by supporters as the protest was organised for 3pm outside the club’s ground. Some of the images shared also contained the #OleOut hashtag as some fans called for a change in manager amid the ongoing pressure on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, but were met with criticism. Nevertheless, a small group of supporters congregated outside of Old Trafford, with footage of the protest being shared on social media. Fans held banners with the message “enough is enough” as they continued their calls for the Glazer...

The international break has so far not been overly kind to Manchester United on the injury front. Midfielder Paul Pogba suffered a thigh injury in France's first training session on Monday, meaning, according to reports in France, that could now be sidelined for up to ten weeks, Edinson Cavani has not linked up with the Uruguay squad because of a tendon injury and Luke Shaw will play no part in England's clash with Albania at Wembley this evening. Shaw went off for United against Manchester City last Saturday with a head injury and is still following medical advice, with strict rules concerning players who have suffered concussions. England boss Gareth Southgate remains unsure if Shaw will even be available for Monday's trip to San Marino, meaning Harry Maguire, currently, is the only United player available in the squad. Meanwhile, Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers is continuing to be strongly linked with becoming United's next manager if they decide t...

Victor Lindelof's season reached a new low on Wednesday night. The Manchester United defender, part of a back line at Old Trafford that has shipped 11 goals in the last four matches, dropped a clanger for Sweden in World Cup qualifying at Georgia. Georgia were already 1-0 ahead thanks to Khvicha Kvaratskhelia when he picked the ball up on the halfway line and thought about making himself a hero. Kvaratskhelia headed for Lindelof and the United defender, inexplicably, tried to clear the ball rather than make a tackle and ended up whacking it against the Georgia winger, who was given a clear run on goal and slotted home past Robin Olsen. Although Georgia are unlikely to qualify for next year's World Cup in Qatar and Sweden are two points clear of Spain at the top of Group B, Lindelof will want to forget his error soon. His mistake comes a day after an interview was published in which he addressed criticism of United and their form this season. “When you play for Unite...

Cristiano Ronaldo has been tipped to make a sensational move to Barcelona by one of the club's former presidency candidates. Toni Freixa was asked if Barca should make an attempt to sign the Portuguese megastar, and the ex-board member agreed with the outlandish suggestion. "If there is a time to do this madness it is now," he said in a quote published on SportWitness via AS. It would be a stunning U-turn from Ronaldo should he decide to leave Old Trafford so soon, and he has only just signed a two-year deal with the club following a summer departure from Juventus He is also Real Madrid's record goalscorer with an incredible 450 goals in 438 appearances across all competitions for Los Blancos in an outstanding nine-year spell in the Spanish capital. The 36-year-old also won 4 Champions League titles, 2 La Ligas, 2 Spanish Cups and 2 Spanish Supercups during his time at the Bernabeu. But the five-time Ballon d'Or winner has reportedly been s...

New Aston Villa manager Steven Gerrard had a very honest response to Sir Alex Ferguson not rating him as highly as many others did. In his 2013 autobiography, Fergie wrote: "I'm one of the few who felt Gerrard was not a top, top player." The Liverpool legend was asked about those surprising comments during an appearance on The Clare Balding Show a few years back and admitted he was "a little but gutted" but "won't sleep lose over it". He also revealed that he once had a trial as a youngster and Fergie later made an attempt to bring him to Manchester United when he was a first-teamer. "I went on trial at Manchester United when I was 13 and had a letter off them wanting to sign me on a seven-year-deal," Gerrard said on the BT Sport show. "I'm a huge fan of Alex Ferguson and what he's done in the game is fantastic, that's the reason why he's sold that many copies in the first week. I was genuinely...

Manchester United want to appoint a British coach as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's successor and are confident interest in Brendan Rodgers will be reciprocated. Manchester United are prepared to trigger a clause in Brendan Rodgers' contract to make him their next manager should Ole Gunnar Solskjaer be sacked. Solskjaer's future at Old Trafford is looking increasingly bleak following back-to-back home defeats to Liverpool and Manchester City, leaving the club nine points off the pace after just 11 games. The Norweigan still has backing at boardroom level, though Rodgers is top of the list of possible replacements as the club look to appoint a British successor. As reported by the Daily Star, Old Trafford chiefs believe Rodgers would be keen on taking the job, provided a deal can be struck with his club Leicester. Rodgers would be reluctant to leave the Foxes but knows there is little more he can realistically achieve there - and would find the chance to manage United al...

Manchester City Drop New Puma-Designed Third Kit, Fans Think It's The Worst Thing They've Ever Seen Manchester City and Puma have raised fans’ eyebrows by dropping the first look at the Premier League champions’ third kit for the 2021-22 season. Jack Grealish is featured alongside Raheem Sterling and Phil Foden in the promotional material for the third kit, which City described as a “bold new progressive” top. City’s third kit shakes things up from the more traditional look as the club’s crest has moved from the front of the shirt to underneath the collar on the back. However, the navy blue top immediately stands out for the fact that the club’s name is featured at the heart of the third kit in a light-blue font. The iconic Puma logo is now above the capitalised ‘Man City’ on the front, with sponsors Etihad Airways placed under the club’s name. According to City, the third kit is meant to reimagine the “traditional football kit in a brand-new approach [b...

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has challenged the club's critics to come up with the evidence if they believe the Blues are breaking Financial Fair Play rules.  Thirteen months after the Court of Arbitration for Sport overturned City's two-year ban from European competition for breaching Uefa's FFP rules, questions about the club's spending are again being raised. Guardiola defended City's British record £100m signing of England midfielder Jack Grealish. The Spanish manager insists the deal was only possible because of the £60m-worth of sales by the club over the past 12 months, including the £11m received from Borussia Dortmund following Jadon Sancho's move to Manchester United. 'If we are wrong, prove it' However, with City understood to be preparing an offer in excess of the sum they spent on Grealish to try to persuade Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy to let Harry Kane join them, Guardiola responded to a fresh broadside from Jurgen K...
