Former Liverpool star Steve McMahon has said that Paul Pogba has played a key catalyst in Manchester United’s downfall over the past few years. The France international recently enjoyed his best season with the Red Devils with 16 goals and 11 assists, but he was still inconsistent with his showing which generated fan criticism.
Bayern Munich are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the German giants have been hugely successful both domestically and in Europe over the past decade. Two players who have been synonymous with Bayern’s success over the past 10 years are Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery, and it seems that both the wingers are leaving this summer.
Robben joined Bayern from Spanish and European giants Real Madrid in the summer of 2019 for €25 million, and the Dutch winger was an instant success. The former Chelsea star’s dribbling skills, running at defenders and taking accurate shots on goals endeared him to the Allianz Arena faithful.

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has said that some Red Devil players require a reality check following the club’s poor run of form over the past month. The Red Devils have won just two of their previous seven matches across all competitions and this has dropped them outside of the top four while being eliminated from the FA Cup and Champions League.
Former Liverpool star John Arne Riise has said that the Reds may require some assistance from Manchester United in order to secure their maiden Premier League crown this term. Jurgen Klopp’s side have enjoyed an exceptional season by their standards in the top-flight but they are still one point behind Manchester City in the pursuit of the title.
Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba has revealed that he has the ambition of playing for Real Madrid, although he is content at Manchester United at the present point of time.

The calls for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to take over at Manchester United on a full-time basis are growing louder and now the Class of ’92 are beginning to join the chorus of approval. Ryan Giggs has become the latest ex-player to recommend Solskjaer for the hot seat at Old Trafford and you’ve got to imagine now that the most successful crop of players in the clubs history are weighing in, the hands of the powers that be at Manchester United will become slightly more tied.
Giggs has suggested that the club appoint Solskjaer but keep it private so that the Norwegian can begin planning for the future now and not in the summer when precious time would have elapsed. One of the main reasons Giggs alludes to is that Manchester United have been playing catch up for a while now and haven’t been building for the future correctly.

Former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has said that Manchester United were tactically weak in the midfield department where Paris Saint-Germain dominated the proceedings. The Red Devils were fancied to outclass a Les Parisiens side, who were without the likes of Neymar and Edinson Cavani upfront but they experienced the complete opposite with the French club securing a 2-0 triumph in the end.
