Paul Pogba delivers worst performance in Man United shirt in loss at Brighton

Image
Manchester United lost 1-0 at Brighton, a game where the hosts secured their Premier League status for another season, in a performance as abject as any United have produced under Jose Mourinho. It was a performance lacking in urgency until the 70th minute, when United seemed to realise the gravity of the situation, but a defeat with intensity and discipline of this nature was no less than they deserved. Positives David De Gea produced a cluster of saves that showed why he is one of the world's very best. Negatives Almost too numerous to mention, so conservative were the tactics, but Paul Pogba was poor in possession, Matteo Darmian and Ashley Young were too timid in wide areas, and Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford made poor decisions in attack. Manager rating out of 10 4 -- Mourinho chose two full-backs who did not push forward and put them behind a right-winger and central midfielder (Juan Mata and Marouane Fellaini) who lack pace. The result was a strange...

Bailly's prolonged absence underlines Man United's injury woes this season

Eric Bailly's ankle injury, which could sideline him for three months, is a major problem for Jose Mourinho and Manchester United. After being without his best player, Paul Pogba, for two months, this long-term injury to another key member of the squad is a huge blow. The manager loves to find an excuse for his failings but it would be unfair not to acknowledge that United have been unfortunate when it's come to injuries this season. Rivals Manchester City have had their most important players, Kevin De Bruyne and David Silva, fit for every Premier League game this season, while Pogba has missed morethan half United's league matches. Mourinho's back line has been hit with injuries throughout the course of the season too, with Chris Smalling and Phil Jones, the latter in particular, again proving they're made out of glass. But the repeated injuries to Bailly have been the most damaging. The Ivorian may have an unconventional approach to defending, o...

Warning against 'volcano tourism' risks

Image
Thrill-seeking tourists are putting themselves in danger and hampering emergency services by heading towards volcanoes when they erupt. A report from the Royal Geographical Society warns of the growing risks caused by "volcano tourism". Emergency authorities in countries such as Iceland now have to contend with the arrival of tourists who rush there to get close to an exploding volcano. The study says such tourists fail to understand the seriousness of the risk. The study, published by the Royal Geographical Society and written by University of Cambridge geographer Amy Donovan, warns that such visitors can create dangerous problems for already stretched rescue services. 'Volcanophiles' The phenomenon of "volcano tourism" has seen thousands of people trying to get close to the site of erupting volcanoes for the physical experience of seeing, hearing and feeling the heat of such a natural spectacle. Dr Donovan says that such people are fa...
