Roma willing to pay over £3m a season for Man Utd defensive target Gregory van der Wiel

The PSG right-back is expected to leave the French champions this summer after reportedly falling out with manager Laurent Blanc.

United are known suitors of the Dutchman, who played under
Red Devils manager Louis van Gaal when the boss was
Netherlands head coach.
He reportedly takes home almost £3million a season in wages
at PSG and the club are seeking to sell him in order to
reduce costs to fall in line with UEFA’s Financial Fair Play
rules.
That is according to Italian media site Tuttomercatoweb , who
claim Roma are ready to spend this summer to help bolster
their Champions League ambitions and are aware Van der
Wiel’s contract expires in June 2016.
He is represented by ‘super agent’ Mino Raiola, who also looks
after Paul Pogba, Mario Balotelli and Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s
careers.
Earlier this month the 27-year-old was dropped for PSG’s
Champions League clash with Chelsea, after which he hit out
at Blanc, stating: "The coach did not tell me anything about
it. This came as a big surprise.
"This is not the right way to drop a player. It's not usual to
drop someone without explaining it, but apparently that's the
way things go here.
"It's a real shame that I did not feature from the start,
because these are the kinds of games you want to be part
of.”

Hull City Manager chides Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen following Spurs' 2-1 win

Following Spurs' 2-1 win over Hull City, City manager Steve Bruce lashed out at Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen for exaggerating to get Hull City's Ramirez Gaston red-carded. Bruce castigated such act as unhealthy for the Premier League. The Uruguayan midfielder Ramirez got the red card for kicking at Belgian Jan Vertonghen. Bruce argued his man only showed "petulance" when he was provoked by Jan. And such behaviour could not be regarded as "violent". The City went down when Tottenham's Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen found the net in the game's second half. Speaking with his news conference, Bruce said, "Ramirez has shown petulance. Vertonghen has had a little go at him, and Ramirez has flicked out. The law says it is a violent conduct. For me, it is an act of petulance -- it is not violent conduct." Via espn

Headmaster Pep Guardiola injects new rules into City camp; bans mobile phones

It's safe to say Pep is a perfectionist and also a headmaster, lol. But seriously, Pep has no intentions to drop his standards after a record-breaking 2017/18 season. He doesn't plan to chart a course like his colleague Ranieri of Leicester City did. Pep recently banned the use of mobile phones, and he also banned lateness to training. Every violation comes with a corresponding fine, ask Benjamin Mendy. Pep plans to repeat his outstanding triumph like he did last season.
