Erik ten Hag drops Van de Beek hint & leaves Man Utd fans furious with Maguire verdict

Premier League

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has praised Donny van de Beek and said he is ‘looking forward’ to working with the player again.

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The midfielder excelled under him and was part of Ajax’s superb run to the Champions League semi-finals in 2018/19 where they eliminated both Real Madrid and Juventus before the defeat to Tottenham. He was on the 30-man shortlist for the Ballon d’Or later that year. His form convinced United to spend £35m on the player in 2020 but after failing to secure regular football, he joined Everton on deadline day in January. He played jus...

Premier League

Mohamed Salah could scarcely believe it when he came off the bench to put Liverpool ahead on the last day of the Premier League season - only to realise Manchester City had completed their comeback.

Ralf Rangnick blames Man Utd player for Crystal Palace goal

Premier League

Manchester United interim manager Ralf Rangnick has criticised Bruno Fernandes for his role in Crystal Palace’s winning goal as they suffered their 12th defeat of the campaign. Rangnick had wanted to end the season on a small high by securing Europa League qualification with a win, but they fell behind in the first half to a goal from Wilfried Zaha. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Fortunately for the Red Devils, Brighton came from behind against West Ham to beat the east Londoners, meaning it was the Hammers who had to settle for Europa Conference League football next campaign. Zaha’s goal was a bit of a disaster from United’s point of view, with Fernandes volleying a throw-in back towards his own goal without looking and the ball dropped for the P...
