Man Utd’s Woodward makes decision

Manchester United vice-executive chairman Ed Woodward has reportedly decided against appointing Jose Mourinho’s preferred director of football candidate.
The Red Devils are eager to introduce a director to oversee ongoings at the club following their turgid summer transfer window.
The Daily Record say Mourinho has pitched Lille bigwig Luis Campos for the role.
The United boss has reportedly been impressed by the work Campos has done at Real Madrid and Monaco earlier in his career.
But Woodward has declined to interview him and has decided to postpone an appointment until Mourinho leaves.

Zidane given warning

Robbie Savage has warned Zinedine Zidane he will be unable to rival Pep Guardiola for the Premier League title should he replace Mourinho at Old Trafford.
He told the Mirror: “I think Jose could win the league with those Manchester City players, but I don’t think Pep could win the league with the Manchester United squad.
“It’s all about players. They need to rip up the squad and start again. They need to add some world-class players into their side.
“That’s going to cost an awful lot of money.
“You could get rid of Jose, bring in Zinedine Zidane and they would still be miles off winning the league.”

Depay transfer claim

Memphis Depay failed at United because he made the move to Old Trafford too soon, according to former coach Cor Pot.
"I found Memphis especially a very positive boy,” he told Voetbalprimeur.
"You already saw that it was a very great talent, maybe he went to Manchester United a bit too early, and that was all too fast. He was just a basic player in Eindhoven, Lyon was a good step for Memphis. It's fantastic now.
"He keeps on developing himself - not only as a player, but also as a person - Memphis gets a bit calmer, does not do any crazy things anymore, but at the time he was a bit shy.
"Of course you had that fuss with that extravagant behaviour. That seems a bit over now, I think he's doing fine."

THE MASCARENE PARROT

The Mascarene parrot was 35 cm (14 in) in length with a large red bill and long, rounded tail feathers. Its legs were red, and it had naked red skin around the eyes and nostrils. It had a black facial mask and partially white tail feathers, but the colouration of the body, wings and head is unclear. Descriptions from life indicate the body and head were ash grey, and the white part of the tail had two dark central feathers. In contrast, descriptions based on stuffed specimens state that the body was brown and the head bluish but do not mention the dark central tail feathers. This may be due to the specimens having changed colour as a result of aging and exposure to light, as well as other forms of damage. Very little is known about the bird in life. The Mascarene parrot was first mentioned in 1674, and live specimens were later brought to Europe, where they lived in captivity . The species was scientifically described in 1771. Only two stuffed specimens exist today, in Paris and Vienn...
