Manchester United Loose Out...

Manchester United have missed out on yet another transfer target. This time on Bayern Munich’s attacking midfielder Thomas Muller. The Red Devils have been heavily linked with the German international in the past few months, with reports emerging that Louis van Gaal wants to bring him at Old Trafford in the summer. Earlier this month, we reported that Muller, who is valued around €45m and has scored 13 times in 25 Bundesliga starts under Pep Guardiola last season, has asked for greater clarification about his role in the team. “I have reached the point where I want to know if I am an essential component of the Bayern Munich first XI for the new season and if the club has

Very few people get to actually take just one amidst the plenty on my table. Everyone is looking out for themselves and their immediate satisfaction not considering the other staff in the building that may feel peckish after
