Former Man United captain to replace Jose Mourinho at Old Trafford

Former Manchester United captain Nemanja Vidic says Manchester United are not performing at a level that the club has come to expect, and laid out his future ambitions to become manager at Old Trafford. Vidic currently works as a television pundit and has not yet entered the world of management since hanging up his boots two years ago, but he is keen to lead his former club at some stage.

Only this week, Vidic had defended the Portuguese manager, saying he had been more positive in recent games with his team selections. But following defeat at the Etihad, Vidic admitted United were not reaching the standard set by Sir Alex Ferguson. “If you’re speaking about the Sir Alex Ferguson era and comparing now the last three, four years, definitely Manchester United is not on the level fans [are] expecting,” Vidic told beIN Sports. “We have to believe the club is going forward. To be honest, in the future, I would like to be the manager.”

Vidic won five Premier League titles, one Champions League and three League Cups during his time at United, and is highly regarded by fans. He also won the Premier League Player of the Season award twice – in 2008/09 and 2010/11. Vidic has previously said: “As a player, as someone who played for the club, you want to see them much closer (to the title).

“Manchester United in their history always played attacking, attractive football. I think in the last few games what I like about Manchester United is they’ve started to be more positive with (Jose) Mourinho’s team selection.”

Coronavirus: 'The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing'

"The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing," says Andrew O'Dwyer, who is recovering after being infected with the new coronavirus following a skiing trip to Italy in late February. "I've had worse flu, without a doubt - but I wouldn't want to catch it again," he says during his self-isolation at home in south-west London. Despite having type 1 diabetes, Andrew says having the virus "isn't anything to worry about for me personally". He adds that the fever he experienced is "no different to normal flu-type symptoms". "I've not been concerned," he says. The severity of symptoms can vary widely among people. Those who are older and have pre-existing medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease) are more likely to become severely ill and can need hospital treatment. There have been 10 coronavirus-related deaths so far in the UK. Andrew was told the virus wasn't circulating in the resort ...

Babajide made a Stunning Revelation about the Forthcoming Governorship Election in Edo State

Babajide a veteran journalist, while speaking on the popular program “Journalist Hangout” on TVC news Friday August 7, made a stunning revelation about the forthcoming governorship election in Edo state, says all political parties should shown violence because election is not a do or die affair. Babajide while reacting said “ I have to say I have my fears about these forthcoming election, and I hope my fears does not come past. As we can see the shenanigans in Edo state it is now visible that it is no more Oshiomole against Obaseki, it is now PDP against APC which could be devastating in the light of the politics going on now. Obaseki himself divided the APC, because all the lawmakers in Edo state belong to the APC but he divided them by inaugurating some lawmakers, and refusing to inaugurate others. Right now as it stands 17 lawmakers have decided to align with the APC and just 7 lawmakers is with the Governor. For me I think Obaseki should have averted these problem by just issuing a...
