Jose Mourinho Confirms United Take Over Just A Matter Of Time

Could Jose Mourinho be about to replace Louis van Gaal?

The Special One was speaking after the Red Devils lost 3-2 to West Ham in the final match at Upton Park on Tuesday evening.
Mourinho could be appointed as the United boss if Van Gaal fails to finish in the top four.
When asked if United struggling to achieve Champions League qualification would affect his future, he told the Daily Mail: "There is plenty of time."
Mourinho arrived in Mexico City on Tuesday night to manage a FIFA legends team but he isn't taking the task seriously.
He added: "I didn’t pick them, I’m here on my holidays."
Mourinho has been out of a job since before Christmas when he was axed by Chelsea after a disappointing start to the season.
Since then he has been constantly linked with the United job despite Van Gaal having a contract until the summer of 2017.
And according to the BBC, the Portuguese boss has shown a keen interest in replacing the Dutchman at Old Trafford.
United finish their Premier League campaign against Bournemouth at Old Trafford on Sunday.
The Red Devils only chance of a top four finish is if they win and arch-rivals Manchester City lose to Swansea.
After that they face Crystal Palace at Wembley in the FA Cup final.

Arsenal Boss Eyes Summer Clear-outs

The midfield trios' contracts are set to expire at the end of the season and it is understood the Gunners are planning for life without them, claim the  London Evening Standard . All three midfielders have been bit-part players this season with Arsene Wenger believed to be having concerns over their fitness and consistency to perform at a high level.  Rosicky, who turnt 35 last month, is expected to be sidelined until after Christmas following knee surgery and has failed to play a single minute of first-team football.  The Czech was set to leave the Gunners last summer but Arsenal invoked a clause in his previous contract to keep him at the Emirates for a further 12 months.  By leaving Arsenal, this will allow Rosicky to finish his career with his first club Sparta Prague - which he is open to.  The same can be said for Flamini as there are those who believe his best days are behind him too, with the poor performance in the Capital One Cup exit...

Euros Disappointments a lesson for Martial, says Deschamps

  France coach Didier Deschamps believes Anthony Martial is a revitalised player after looking "exhausted" at Euro 2016. Following a fine first season in the Premier League with Manchester United, in which he scored 11 goals in 31 appearances, Martial failed to have much of an impact on France's run to the final on home soil. The 20-year-old played just 69 minutes across three matches, but opened the scoring in France's 3-1 friendly victory over Italy in Bari on Thursday for his first senior international goal.

"He was expecting more from the Euros and I was too," Deschamps said. "But, things were difficult. He has to learn from this to progress.  "He was the first to say he was not satisfied. Deschamps continued: "He arrived there exhausted because he had a very l...
