Erik ten Hag has seen enough; Man Utd now want Β£200k-p/w star off the wage bill ASAP

Antony is a player Manchester United were willing to listen to offers for in the summer. Except no offers came in. That tells you everything you need to know about the Brazilian’s time at Old Trafford. He arrived from Ajax with promise but the spark is gone.

β€˜Quick rise’ – Sporting Lisbon ace would reach expectations at Manchester United says compatriot

A key struggle for footballers joining Manchester United over the past decade is that they fail to deal with the expectations that weigh heavily down on their shoulders.

FC Porto away: Airport delays, cheap Super Bock and throwing away a 2-goal lead

FC Porto 3-3 Manchester United. Mediocrity continued, albeit after 20 minutes, it seemed the tides were turning. Airport delays Nearly every Red delayed heading to Portugal after the extreme fog.
