manchester united and the ongoing reports of a fallout between manager jose mourinho and his world cup pogba. andy mitten editor of the united we stand fanzine is here to help me discuss it. put out of the league cup by derby county of the championship do we have an idea what is going at old trafford? not a clear idea. there are different versions. it clearly looks like there have been issues and a breakdown in communication between manchester united ‘s mac manager and their star player, mourinho says there is no issues. i don't believe that. i believe there have been significant issues this year. there are significant issues this year. there a re clearly significant issues this year. there are clearly problems there. there have been ups and downs this year. issues for manchester united already. they are eight points behind liverpool after only six league games and out of the league cup. it is up and down with pogba who started the season very well, made captain for the first game against leicester city. he has had some bad games. he played very well last week in switzerland. i spoke t

manchester united are nowhere in the top of the league. n, beating brighton 2—0 at the etihad stadium. pep guardiola saw his side dominate the game and raheem sterling opened the scoring midway through the first half... sergio aguero made it two as city claimed a comfortable win. guardiola says his team are beginning to loolk —— look like the champion's they were last season... the important thing is after what we have done, when we have done last season. after seven games in the premier league, we are the same team that we were last season. of course you can lose games, of course we can not for the champions league, we cannot win the champions league but no one can say we are not like they are. we are not respectful, professional, like our fans. we've managed to beat manchester united, ran liverpool close away from home but what we have to do is take a lot of the good things we showed to day into this next series of games because realistically, if i'm looking at where we are capable of getting points it is against the teams outside the top

everything at manchester united has got to bejudged in everything at manchester united has got to bean other places. bigger than at liverpool, and bigger than at tottenham. he knows that deep down, and he is employing a very familiar technique used by other manchester united managers, mainly alex ferguson, to deflect the original question. it is fair game. so here's a check on today's premier league matches. as we've mentioned manchester united are at burnley for a 4 o'clock kick off. spurs travel to watford, and cardiff host arsenal in the early kick off. it will be steven gerrard's first old firm derby as manager of rangers at midday. celtic boss brendan rodgers has praised his former player who took over at ibrox in the summer. looking at them and analysing them, steven's done a very good job since going in. pulled together a lot of players and i think what is key is they've brought in some good players, you know? players of a higher level. novak djokovic is looking in good shape to claim a third us open title. the sixth seed cruised into the last 16 with a straight sets win over

football and there have been contrasting fortunes for manchester city and manchester united in their opening matches of this year's champions league. city fell to a 2—1 loss at home to lyon, while united won 3—0 away at swiss champions young boys. andy swiss was watching the play. they emerged as favourites for the champions league, but for how long? with manager pep guardiola serving a touchline ban in the stands, manchester city seemed devoid of direction. a stuttering start, some calamitous defending and visitors lyon were ahead. cornet with the celebrations, the hosts with an early headache. it soon got even worse. fekir, seemingly ushered through the manchester city defence. lyon two up at the break. the body language needed little translation. and come the second half, lyon was soon nearly out of sight, the post denying memphis dubois. and that finally stirred city into action. with 25 minutes left, bernardo silva struck. was the comeback on? well it wasn't to be. sergio aguero came close, but that 2—1 defeat for city and an early blow for their european hopes. manchester unite

enough still on any other manchester united players on board. we are players we could approach loads from so many people trying to ask or see the trade to offer seeings and we try to tends to put a barrier you know push a shield agents or clubs press officer is not easy ward to get through but largely because of them playing along and i have so many friends i can go straight to the people and the people the people on and explain what comalies face to face and that done. makes things easier to connect i think being part of common goal. is a chance for me to people of a different scene fear. losing all or influence on the pitch trumpets of the loss of love work myself into a position now that you know i can i can maybe make a difference for some people you know and that's something i've always wanted to do try and try and use the position of work for to try and help as many people as possible but you're one of the biggest let's say problems or struggles that we have found nowadays you know that connection you know to the players because when you c

anthony martialjulie wrapped up a 3-0 anthony martialjulie wrapped up a 3—0 victory for united for the two halves of manchesterbut he didn't last 30 minutes on his debut after he was shown the red card for pulling the hairofan shown the red card for pulling the hair of an opponent. he felled to the floor and he burst into tears. he is the record goalscorer in the competition and he might miss the return to old trafford to play manchester united —— he fell to the floor. they still won 2—0. 0ld side -- his floor. they still won 2—0. 0ld side —— his old side and defending champions real madrid made light work of their game against roma with a 3—0 win. gareth bale with the second. real making an excellent start to their campaign. here's the full list of results from tonight. bayern munich with new coach niko kovac starting well with a 2—0 win against benfica. confirmation for the win forjuventus, they are in the win forjuventus, they are in the same group as manchester united. all the details and reports on those games on the bbc sport website. ben stokes and alex hales had been included in england's one—day squad

everything at manchester united had to be viewed in the context of manchester united, the expectationing a familiar technique used by other manchester united managers, namely alex ferguson, to be asked one question and talk about something else and deflect it. it's fair game. so here's a check on today's premier league matches — as we've mentioned manchester united get underway at burnley at 4 o'clock this afternoon. spurs travel to watford and cardiff host arsenal in the early kick off. novak djokovic is looking in good shape to claim a third us open title. the sixth seed cruised into the last 16 with a straight sets win over the flamboyant frenchman richard gasquet. djokovic seemed far more comfortable playing under the lights in the evening, after having played his first two matches in searing daytime temperatures. he's on course to meet roger federer in the quarterfinals. and in the women's draw maria sharapova is into the second week of the tournament. she had a dominant straight sets victory over latvia's jelena ostapenko. sharapova has now won all 23 matches that she's played a

but this season he seems to have been reborn, he has been a stand—up layer for manchester united. back into the england squad and he spoke of all the problems he has suffered in the past few years. notjust on the not just on the pitch notjust on the pitch but not just on the pitch but off the pitch i've matured and grown—up and you could say i have gone from maybe a child to a man now and i know what i need to do to push myself and i wa nt i need to do to push myself and i want to play for manchester united. obviously i want to stay there and fight for my place and prove my worth to the team and obviously i wa nt worth to the team and obviously i want to try to do the same here now. give gareth a headache to select and give him different choices from what i'm surei give him different choices from what i'm sure i can do. i feel the confidence coming into this camp after the world cup will be high and we need to go out and show that against spain because they are a fantastic team and i'm sure it will be a full stadium supporting us. will be a full stadium supporting us. i feel as th

jose mourinho has told paul pogba he won't captain manchester united again, due to concerns about thea and the rest of the united players were told of the decision today, ahead of united's efl cup third round tie with derby. our football reporter simon stonejoins me now.. simon, what exactly has mourinho said? mourinho has basically told paul pogba that he is not going to be captain again. i would just like to stress pogba is not the captain of manchester united, that is antonio valencia. however, valencia does miss a lot of games and when he misses, pogba stands in. he has done this season and that is what we expected to continue. the backdrop to this is a disappointing draw against wolves on saturday, when mourinho felt that pogba was at fault for walls doar wolves equaliser. and in an interview that pogba gave afterwards where he appeared to criticise united's tactics and say it was in united's dna to attack more than they were doing, and when he was asked to was responsible for that, he said you need to ask the manager, so that is the backdrop to a decision today. where does this

a difficult week for manchester united and jose mourinho got worse today with a 3—1 defeat at west hamund exchange between mourinho and pogba, today the french midfielder was hauled off midway through the second half as united slipped to a third league defeat of the season. patrick gearey has this report. struggles, bubbles, toil and trouble is. manchester united have had a week of it. rumours of rows between the manager and paul pogba and results are not helping. having lost to derby county on penalties, it took west ham just five minutes to make things worse. felipe anderson's skill only really revealed on second glance. west ham laid low until the second half with yarmolenko deflecting the ball in off of lindelof. then paul pogba being substituted after for a man who is one of their own out flicking felipe. the problem was west ham united had space of a small london park for arnautovic to deliver the crucial blow. is mourinho's bubble at bursting point? well, after the game, match of the day commentator jonathan pearce asked jose mourinho about his decision to substitute paul pogba

the relationship between manchester united's manager jose mourinho and star player paul pogba is oncen the training ground. pogba looks bemused as he talks with his manager. the tensions between the two well documented over recent weeks and this is the latest in a series of incidents often played out on social media, that appear to have them both at loggerheads. and the situation as you can see divides opinion. you find that has a get support in the broadsheet newspapers in the uk, as well. but then again, pot but finds support to elsewhere. who do you believe and what is actually going on? andy mitten says pogba would go, if he could. with pogba, if he said to me now that he would be referring to play barcelona at the moment, i suspect yes, he would, but he is at manchester united blair. he is important to the club's future. that causes issue, and yet when i spoke to him, you don't get any sense of that whatsoever. so there is a lot of smoke and mirrors here. it is not the most settled club, and that causes anxiety among manchester united fans, because they have no clue what's going

manchester united managers. it's fair game.ess and light and he was always fantastic value and he was always fantastic value and always great company, but in fa ct and always great company, but in fact he wasn't, like most managers, he was when he wanted to be and other days, it's something was annoying him, he could be quite difficult. no different to any other managerfrom that difficult. no different to any other manager from that point of view, they can all be, the moods are affected out results, essentially. but he likes to be in control of these things. i think he was pretty much in control of that conference on friday, he was after topping, when he came out with the respect line, he lost his head a little. you said you were at a press conference a couple of weeks ago. he has changed down the years and going to burnley, not the ideal game to be playing right now. i think they will win today and win comfortably. you don't say? my predictions are normally dreadful, by the way, there we re normally dreadful, by the way, there

manchester united manager jose mourinho drew comparisons with roger federer as his side travel to switzerlandst young boys on wednesday. the match will be played on a plastic pitch, something mourinho has criticised and his captain antonio valencia won't feature as there are fears his knees won't stand up to the rigours of the playing surface in bern, but mourinho was keen to stress the 20—time grand slam champion federer‘s record on all surfaces is something his team need to replicate i'm pretty sure that the big man sometimes is not happy to pay —— play in such a surface but he has to play in such a surface but he has to play andy has to win. everybody knows he has a favourite surface but he also has to win in the services that he is not in love with. we have to do it. lyon are in manchester as they prepare to meet english champions manchester city on wednesday. the french club earned another shot at the champions league afterfinishing third, behind paris st germain and monaco, in ligue un last season. they've had a mixed start to the new campaign, winning two, losing two and drawing once i
