Ten Hag under pressure

The pressure on Erik ten Hag is mounting after yet another loss. Even before the game there were rumours about a player mutiny.

Andre Onana made a massive howler in the Bayern game and Rio Ferdinand did not hold back when giving his opinion.

The Cameroon international was quick to acknowledge his mistake after the game.

Exiled Man Utd star Jadon Sancho, meanwhile, spent his time playing FIFA, something that did not go down well with fans.

Ex-Red Devils boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes that the rise of Marcus Rashford is to blame for Sancho's struggles.

He also revealed the long list of massive stars Man Utd missed out on during his time there.

Sofyan Amrabat inadvertently added to the drama at the club with a seemingly innocuous career choice.

If Ten Hag were to go, who should replace him?

Liverpool miss out

A Dutch wonderkid defender targeted by Liverpool has signed a new contract, destroying any hopes the Reds may have had of landing him in the near future.

But there is another youngster whom the Reds could target given that he is nicknamed the 'next Van Dijk.'

Boehly's empire

Todd Boehly's footballing empire is set to grow beyond Chelsea and Strasbourg after the Blues have been given a massive cash injection.

And they could soon get even more money as several potential investors have expressed an interest in buying a stake at Chelsea, including a club legend.

Additionally, the London giants are eyeing a Borussia Dortmund wonderkid.
