Teplice U21 Overview

Jesse Lingard has been warned by former Manchester United team-mate Anderson that passionate supporters in Brazil will either “love you or hate you”. The ex-England international is now on the books of Corinthians, with a one-time colleague at Old Trafford telling GOAL that fans in South America will go to extreme lengths if their patience is tested.

Serious questions are being asked of Michael Carrick’s future at Manchester United, as the shortest priced entry in Premier League sack race markets, but Michael Owen has explained to GOAL why the man calling shots at Old Trafford “deserves time”. The Red Devils only handed a permanent contract to their current head coach in May, but are said to be already regretting that decision.

Wayne Rooney has been told what he “should have” done to prevent managerial flops at Birmingham and Plymouth. The Manchester United legend has been out of coaching since leaving Home Park in late December 2024, with former Everton team-mate Alan Stubbs telling GOAL why the former England international is unlikely to head back into the dugout any time soon.

Eddie Howe is reportedly keen on becoming the next Manchester United manager if the club decides to part ways with Michael Carrick. The former Newcastle boss is currently taking a break from football but views the Old Trafford position as a highly attractive opportunity amid United's poor start to the season.
