Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Reveals Key Change Behind Upturn in Man Utd Performances

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said that the mentality and morale of the dressing room is ‘miles better’ than it was only a few short months ago, which is one of the main factors why Paul Pogba appears increasingly likely to stay at the club. For over a year, Pogba had been heavily rumoured to be on his way out of Old Trafford, a frustrated figure who could no longer handle the burden of trying to carry a disjointed team on his back. Pogba has returned to a team that is...

Hansi Flick: The Man at the Heart of Bayern Munich's Incredible Transformation

To say that Luke Jovic's inaugural season at Real Madrid has been underwhelming would be an understatement. Since completing a €60m move from Eintracht Frankfurt in the summer, Jovic's Real career has lurched from one disaster to the next. He has returned just two goals, two assists and has been so disappointing that Los Blancos are now set to cut their losses and try and move him on as quickly as possible. Although he has struggled in La Liga, Jovic's performances lit up the Bundesliga during...

LIVE: Arsenal face test at Brighton

Win Bournemouth and Tottenham played out a turgid 0-0 at the Vitality Stadium on Thursday evening, as VAR intervention (or lack of it) once again dominated proceedings.

However, it was turned down by the officials. The second half sparked into life with just a minute left on the clock, with Callum Wilson wheeling away in celebration having...

tory Manchester United plunged Aston Villa deeper into relegation trouble with a routine 3-0 win at Villa Park on Thursday night.

After this, United took control of the game and doubled their advantage via a fine strike from...
