Rio Ferdinand claims that even Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante would not be able to fix Manchester United’s current issues under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer . United lost ground at the top of the Premier League this weekend as they were beaten 4-2 by Leicester City . The result means United have now gone three games in the Premier League, while Solskjaer has faced criticised over his side’s lack of cohesion in attack. Meanwhile, United supporters have called for the club to sign a new defensive midfielder to help bring stability to the team. But Ferdinand believes United’s problem runs deeper and says even Kante would be unable to cope in Solskjaer’s current set-up. ‘I see players pressing but there’s no one coming in behind it like [Jadon] Sancho goes to press and he looks around after his initial press and there’s no one around it. He’s doing a one-man press,’ Ferdinand told Vibe with Five. ‘Is that the players not lsitening to the manager and not carrying out …

Michael Owen makes Champions League predictions including Man Utd vs Atalanta and Atletico vs Liverpool
Michael Owen is backing Manchester United to get the win in a ‘season defining’ game against Atalanta on Wednesday. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer ’s side have won just two of their last seven games and come into their crucial Champions League tie after a crushing defeat to Leicester on Saturday. After losing their opening group game to Young Boys, United beat Villarreal last time out thanks to last minute winner from Cristiano Ronaldo . And former United striker Owen believes his old side will be pushed on by a rocking old Trafford crowd against the Serie A side. ‘Their form hasn’t been great and after that defeat to Leicester at the weekend, the pressure is massively on Solskjaer here,’ Owen wrote for Bet Victor . ‘I’m expecting a brilliant atmosphere at Old Trafford and think Atalanta might struggle to deal with it. I don’t think it will be emphatic, but I think United will win 2-1.’ Liverpool meanwhile are in action on Tuesday night against Spanish champions …

Follow The Money: Five Times Democrat Presidents Have Been Bribed Over The Years | The Daily Wire
One marvels at the evil crooked minds of the bribe seekers and recipients the Democrats have sent to the White House this past half century. It is fascinating how effectively Democrats devise schemes to buy off politicians, passing them millions in bribes in plain sight, and get away with it. We all know that huge donations to a politician gain access. The vast majority of us simply cannot afford the price — even the “economy-class” $1,000 a plate dinner. Therefore, the common folk pick and choose the ones who seem worthy, give online in ranges between $5 and $50, and know that it is a good cause that will not bring access. So the public find other ways to try influence: sending emails to friends, sometimes with distribution lists, tweeting and posting impactful articles. Some religiously attend town halls and school board meetings. They ask the preacher to speak in church on a topic. They bloviate at the office coffee room. Yet there are those whose sheer ingenuity deserves …
Antonio Cassano says Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo is not in the top five players of all time
Antonio Cassano has taunted Cristiano Ronaldo after saying the Manchester United star is not even in the top five best players of all time. Ronaldo scored four goals in his first three games after returning to Old Trafford in the summer following a 12-year period away from the club, but has since found the net just once in his last four matches. Despite his recent struggles, the Portuguese great is among the 30-man shortlist for the prestigious Ballon d’Or award again this year, with his agent Jorge Mendes saying that the ‘best player of all time’ deserves to win it for a joint-record sixth time this term. However, former Italy striker Cassano has hit back at Mendes’ comments, adding that Ronaldo doesn’t even rank among the top five best players in history. ‘Jorge Mendes says the Ballon d’Or belongs to Ronaldo? Yes, he’s the best in history,’ Cassano said ironically on Bobo TV , a Twitch channel hosted by fellow former italy international Christian Vieri. ‘CR7 …
