Paul Pogba has jumped to the defence of under-fire Manchester United manager Michael Carrick, insisting the former midfielder needs time to rectify the club's dismal start to the campaign. The French superstar also hinted that he is keeping a close eye on Manchester City’s ongoing legal battles in hopes of being awarded retrospective Premier League medals.

Liverpool icon Jamie Carragher has delivered a scathing assessment of Florian Wirtz, insisting the German international must be removed from the starting lineup immediately.
