Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes said Jesse Lingard described the Old Trafford club's dressing room as "a disaster."
United's bid of finishing in the Premier League's top four suffered a blow after they lost 3-1 away to Arsenal on Saturday, with the team slipping to the sixth spot in the standings on 54 points, six points outside the top four with four games left.
D.C. United have "exchanged proposals" with star winger Gareth Bale, the Washington Post reported Thursday.
The MLS club initially spoke with the 32-year-old Welsh captain's representatives months ago "but it didn't go anywhere," the newspaper's soccer writer posted on Twitter.
In a reply to his own tweet, the writer characterized a scenario that would bring Bale to the nation's capital as "very far-fetched."
Hay consenso general en torno a que el nivel del arbitraje mexicano es mediocre. Sin embargo, hace rato no se veía algo tan espantoso y vergonzoso como la actuación de Diego Montaño en el partido entre América y Club León.
Cringe por 90+ minutos.
La performance de Montaño incluyó varios cobros errados, errores de procedimiento y de extra tres tarjetas rojas a jugadores de León.
Chivas ganó su primer partido desde el despido de Marcelo Michel Leaño. Fue un 0-1 de visita ante Cruz Azul, en un partido que en todo caso no será recordado por el marcador, sino que por la salida de cadena de Alexis Vega, quien terminó siendo expulsado al tratar de ahorcar al uruguayo Octavio Rivero.
La jugada en cuestión ocurrió en el minuto 71, cuando Rivero se barrió de manera impetuosa para detener un avance de Vega. La entrada fue limpia, pero con el impulso Vega terminó yendo a tierra.
American goalkeeper Zack Steffen had an all-time fail in the FA Cup semifinal vs. Liverpool to give the Reds a 2-0 lead early in the game. This is the second year in-a-row that Steffen has gotten the start in a FA Cup semifinal and made a horrible blunder. Here’s Saturday’s Steffen fail vs. Liverpool.

Bayern Munich manager Julian Nagelsmann opened up at a press conference on Friday about the hatred and threats he received after his side fell to underdog Villarreal in the Champions League on Tuesday.
The Nagelsmann death threats on social media are abhorrent and the evil “fans” leaving these comments went as far as threatening his mother.
Nagelsmann said the threats certainly don’t make his job and life easy.
Concussions are a big topic in American sports with strict protocols in place to avoid athletes suffering severe head injuries. Hell, America has an entire movie literally called “Concussion.” FIFA and UEFA don’t appear to be on the same wavelength as head injuries aren’t taken too seriously. A Phil Foden head injury in the Champions League vs. Atlético Madrid was a prime example.
John Carlin is one of the most accomplished sportswriters of our era, but that doesn't make him immune to fucking it up. And well, he did it in a terrible fashion after criticizing the looks of Atlético Madrid players and comparing the team with the Sinaloa Cartel in his last opinion column in Diario La Vanguardia.
A siete meses del Mundial, Gerardo Martino parece haberle cerrado la puerta de manera definitiva a la idea de un retorno de Javier Hernández a la selección mexicana.
La última vez que vimos a Chicharito con el jersey del Tri fue en noviembre de 2019. Desde ahí, no más, kaput. Sin importar cuántos goles hiciera, el delantero se perdió todas y cada una de las convocatorias del Tata.
Y el futuro no será muy diferente.
Mallorca consiguió el último sábado una buena dosis de oxígeno en su lucha por mantenerse en LaLiga, luego de vencer al Atlético de Madrid por 1-0. La victoria además fue la primera de los baleares con Javier Aguirre como su entrenador.
