Mikael Silvestre blasted Manchester United’s performance against Crystal Palace on Monday, saying the players were ‘exposed’.  Erik ten Hag’s side delivered one of their worst displays of the season at Selhurst Park and deservedly came away with a 4-0 defeat.    Casemiro and Christian Eriksen were particularly awful, but the whole team underperformed. Silvestre was unimpressed with their display. “Well, you know if you have a weakness, which is your backline, at least protect it but that wasn’t the case,” Silvestre told Sky Sports News. “We could see that the players ..read more

Jose Mourinho is reportedly interested in returning to Manchester United for a second managerial stint.  The Portuguese boss was at the club between the summer of 2016 and December 2018.  During his two-and-a-half-year tenure, he led the club to League Cup and Europa League success.  But he left the Red Devils in acrimonious circumstances in December following a disappointing start to the 2018-19 campaign.  According to the Manchester Evening News, Mourinho would ‘love’ to manage United again and has told confidants he would willingly ‘walk’ to Old Trafford to do so.  ..read more

Manchester United midfielder Casemiro has been slammed by Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher after his horrific performance in the 4-0 Premier League defeat to Crystal Palace. Casemiro started in the centre-back role and captained the side in the absence of Bruno Fernandes. The former Real Madrid star was directly at fault for two of Palace’s goals. He needlessly dived in, allowing Michael Olise an easy run to open the deadlock. He lost the ball during Olise’s second goal. He was easily nutmegged and looked shaky all night. Carragher advise ..read more

Liverpool legend-turned-pundit Jamie Carragher has said that Crystal Palace duo Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise would walk into the Manchester United team. The Red Devils suffered a disappointing 4-0 loss to Palace on the road last night. They were second-best for most of the game and the margin of defeat could have been larger. Olise was the stand-out player for the hosts with a goal in either half. He had 62 touches with a passing accuracy of 97 per cent and was adjudged the man of the match. Eze did not make a goal contribution for the Eagles, but he was equally impressive with seven dribbl ..read more

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag must drop midfielder Christian Eriksen against Arsenal on Sunday following his underwhelming performance at Crystal Palace last night.

The decision did not prove worthwhile as the 32-year-old struggled to control the proceedings. He failed to win any of his ground and aerial duels contested at Selhurst Park. He also lost possession on 15 occasions over 90 minutes with a passing ..read more

Vitor Roque’s agent has slammed Xavi’s treatment of his client and threatened he could leave Barcelona if his situation doesn’t improve.  Manchester United were among several clubs who were interested in signing the 19-year-old last summer.  But the Catalans won the race for the forward as they sealed a €61 million transfer from Athletico Paranaense.  However, the move hasn’t worked out well for the youngster in Spain as he has been struggling for minutes under manager Xavi.  The Brazilian has played just over 300 minutes  in all competitions this campaign, with only ..read more

The Red Devils have been in poor league form since the international break and they have picked up only seven points from a possible 18.
