Erik ten Hag will be without a number of his senior Manchester United players for the first leg of the Europa League play-off clash against Barcelona, thanks to injury and suspension A depleted Manchester United will be looking to overcome injuries and suspensions as they head to Barcelona for the first leg of their Europa League play-off. Erik ten Hag’s side picked up 15 points from a possible 18 in their group, but it was not enough to deny Real Sociedad top spot and a bye to the last 16. As a result, they need to get through two legs…

A 66-year-old Brooklyn man is thanking his lucky stars for being alive after a crazed U-Haul truck driver almost ran him over during a violent rampage. Mohamed Abdelmagid was walking on the sidewalk along Third Avenue in Bay Ridge. Like most New Yorkers, he was looking down at his phone on his way to work. Something made him look up, and that’s when he saw the front of the U-Haul truck coming straight for him. “When I look, there’s only a small distance between me and the car,” explained Abdelmagid. “It was fast like a second or two seconds.” Security video of captured…

Guardiola reckons City face ‘best team in the league’ tonight London – Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola was left issuing a public apology to former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard after a bizarre outburst in a news conference last week.

He had said: “Some moments belong to us – they absolutely belong to us regardless of the sentence. “The (title-winning) goal…

Kingsley Coman’s goal against PSG meant he became the player to win the most Champions League games in their first 50 appearances in the competition. WHAT HAPPENED? Paris-born Coman was the difference as Bayern Munich took a 1-0 win away with them from the Parc des Princes in the Champions League last 16, giving Paris Saint-Germain plenty of work to do to turn the tie around away from home in the second leg. In scoring the goal that secured his side the win, Coman also broke a record that not even Cristiano Ronaldo nor Lionel Messi can claim to have next to…

Man Utd have reportedly joined Arsenal in targeting Real Valladolid defender Ivan Fresneda, who would be a replacement for Aaron Wan-Bissaka. The Red Devils have been linked with several right-backs this season as Wan-Bissaka was down the pecking order prior to the World Cup. Erik ten Hag likes to have two viable options at full-back. He has that on the left with Tyrell Malacia and Luke Shaw but he relied solely upon Diogo Dalot at the start of this season. Dalot was one of United’s best players during the opening few months of this campaign, but Wan-Bissaka has gained the…

It’s hard to imagine Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United being led by Cristiano Ronaldo. The first period of the season – where the Red Devils were getting packed in by Brentford and Brighton, shipping goals for fun, scrambling to break into the top four – seems a long time ago now. Ronaldo’s rigid style, lack of pre-season and desire to leave last summer meant that he did not immediately feature in Ten Hag’s plans. But after getting some minutes in his legs, he quickly fell out of them altogether. Eventually, Ronaldo’s frustrations saw him leave a match at Old Trafford…

Manchester United are unlikely to sign Argentina forward this summer. After allowing Cristiano Ronaldo to leave the club towards the end of 2022, United are likely to be in the market for a new striker when the transfer window reopens. They did, of course, recruit Wout Weghorst last month. But having brought the Dutchman in on loan from Burnley, he only looks like a short-term fix for the Manchester outfit. What has Dean Jones said about Paulo Dybala and Man United? Jones doubts United or any other English club will sign Dybala this summer. Speaking to GMS, the journalist said: “I…

The idea of bringing Mason Greenwood back into the fold at Man Utd is already dividing the dressing room, and who will make the final decision has been revealed.

However, on February 2 of this year, the Crown Prosecution Service dropped all charges levied against Greenwood back in October. Explaining the decision, the CPS cited “the withdrawal of key witnesses” and the emergence of “new material.” Responding to the decision to…

The mayhem unfolded over a harrowing 48 minutes as the truck tore through Brooklyn’s bustling Bay Ridge neighborhood,…

Manchester City looked like the Manchester City of old on Sunday afternoon as they blitzed beyond Aston Villa in the opening 45 minutes of their Premier League encounter. Arsenal’s second consecutive slip-up handed Pep Guardiola’s champions another opening, and they took full advantage this time around. Their 3-1 victory over Unai Emery’s side saw them cut their deficit to the Gunners at the top to just three points. Triumph at the Emirates on Wednesday and they’ll return to the summit for the first time in months, albeit having played one game more than their opponents. However, it wasn’t all rosy…

Manchester United and Marcus Rashford are continually improving thanks to the departure of ‘problem’ forward Cristiano Ronaldo, according to Garth Crooks.

Marcus Rashford is in the form of his life thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo’s exit, says Garth Crooks The Red…

Man Utd reportedly ‘fear’ that they will be forced to take a £40m ‘hit’ on Harry Maguire if the defender leaves the club in the summer. It does feel like this season will be Maguire’s last as a Man Utd player. The defender initially impressed for United after his £80m move from Leicester City. He was named captain of the Red Devils during his debut campaign. But Maguire was one of United’s weaker performers last term and he was subject to heavy criticism from fans and pundits. Erik ten Hag took over at Man Utd in the summer and he…
