Ha! I don't expect Pochettino would like that at all

Billy Davies did a decent job for Derby, many moons ago. A possibility, maybe? Just saying………..

Michael Carrick, who will be in the United dugout this weekend, was quoted on the radio this morning saying that he only ask his players to give the best they’ve got, and “nobody can ask for more than that”.


He sounds absolutely mint! With a spot of luck he might be awarded the job on a permanent basis 🍾🍺🍷😁

That’s a little disturbing…..looks like The Rags might have appointed somebody who knows what needs to be done. Not good news at all. 😳

    'Pogba has told Manchester United that he wants to join Real Madrid when his contract expires at the end of the season. '


    Didn't he say he wanted to leave last season?


    He said he wasn't happy at United his agent said.

    If he’s interested, my local heroes Penzance will be looking to strengthen our squad during the summer, following a campaign this season that can best be described as “disappointing”.


    Has anybody got the phone number for Mr Pogba’s agent?

    So that’s one less distraction for the Rags to worry about, now that they’re out of the Cup.


    Now they can settle down and really focus on their true ambitions and objectives. I feel confident they can put a run of results together and secure a place in next year’s Europa League. And if that fails then there’s always that Conference thing to fall back on, whatever the hell it is supposed to be.


    “Glory, glory Man United,
      And the Reds go marching on, on, on……….!”




    By the way, isn’t Ronaldo worth every penny, even at this stage in his career?


    😂
