Gareth Bale 'buys house in Manchester and agrees Man Utd terms' - and more transfer rumours
Gareth Bale has reportedly bought a house in Manchester and agreed personal terms with Manchester United ahead of a potential transfer this summer
Don Balon claim Bale has agreed terms with United, and wants Real Madrid to accept the €80m (£68m) United are willing to offer.
But the report says Real will not entertain a bid below €120m (£103m), and Bale is said to have threatened to sit out his contract if a move is not allowed.

Jose Mourinho has praised Ole Gunnar Solskjaer for Manchester United's 'incredible' result against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.
It's not much more that stating the bleeding obvious to say "So for me, [Erik] ten Hag from Ajax and Solskjaer from Manchester United. Incredible results, so credit to them."
It's hardly a "Fair play to Olé - I tried my best and couldn't get the best out of this squad but Olé has succeeded where I failed" or something to that effect. Now in that case I would be first to applaud his honesty. But a narcissist like Mourinho would be incapable of being that honest or even believing he failed in any way. He said the bare minimum and found a way to dilute the compliment by including the Ajax result in the sentence.
We are a far better, stronger and happier club without that man.

The ABUs can whinge and moan all they like. The more they grizzle and howl, all the better -- with Ole and his coaches and this squad (which will improve in summer), there's going to be a lot for them to whine and cry about in future, so this is good practice for them. Come on, keep it up!
1. It was the right call. Kimpembe was 6-7m away when Dalot shot, which is not close. As Dalot shapes to kick, Kimpembe is facing him: he can see what is about to happen. He is running in from the side. He accelerates and jumps across the line of the ball. Then he starts to turn his back but also turns his head to watch the ball over his shoulder, and his right arm starts to come away from his body. So, it was avoidable: he could have run into the line of the ball, still facing Dalot, put his arms behind his back and tried to block with his head or body. Instead, he chose to jump across in a way that meant there was a distinct, predictable risk of the ball hitting his arm.
2. We'd have scored from the corner, anyway.
3. The review caused a delay of 3m 9s. Yet 6m 9s were added to the 3m of injury time already called. Very generous!

So do stills show speed of the ball, trajectory of the ball, distance between players, what happened before and after the still?. No. Therefore not an accurate way of assessing a penalty. Nice try though chippy.
The video is on MUTV app which shows every way you want and I see Uefa have explained the reasoning behind awarding Manchester United a controversial penalty during their Champions League victory over Paris Saint-Germain this week.

Torreira's gonna be a big, big miss for them. He showed great quality against us this season.
We ain't going to slow down now and I wouldn't be surprised if we win all our last 9 games as after one win u can see the confidence there to win the next and the next so I really can't see us loosing another game city will be hard but at home n the form we playing will b hard to match but if anything I think a draw against man city is a good result

The Official Manchester United Thread
in Football forum
From a perspective of the future of the squad, I think the other night could be hugely important. Most players in that dressing room have never experienced a Manchester United night like that, and the experience of ‘seeing what Manchester United can do’ first hand like that will hopefully accelerate their development and understanding of what is required to be here.
For the academy kids who were forced into the squad on circumstance, this will help them massively. We learned that a player like Dalot absolutely has the personality for the club, as he really stood up to be counted, he showed no fear from his first minute to the last. Scott Mac played his biggest game for us on his biggest stage, as did Fred.
The only shame for me is that Pogba and Martial in particular could not be involved. I think for the team we are trying to build over the coming years, for those two to have been part of a United night like that, would have been so key in building them into the players we will rely upon over the next few years.
