...and the Old Trafford exodus continues...*sigh*

Image
So Manchester United continue to release players before the 12 midnight transfer deadline.  This time it's the turn of James Wilson, the United forward is said to have received interest from a whooping 15 different clubs for his services on a 1-year loan. It is reported that the 19-year old England U-20 forward has a choice to make between Westbrom and Tottenham.  Van Gaal's decision to let yet another forward leave the club this season comes as a surprise especially as captain Wayne Rooney is the only recognised striker in the team. 

Can someone look more dazed than this? lol

Image
Spartak Moscow Female doctor Vitoriya Gameeva shared a picture of herself on instagram wearing a 2015/16 Chelsea jersey. The sexy Russian doctor's social media post has sparked rumours linking her to the Stamford Bridge club as the successor to embattled Eva Carneiro, the 40 year old British doctor who publicly fell out with Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho on the first day of the season. She and her colleague, Jon Fearn, had come onto the pitch to treat a supposedly injured Eden Hazard who the coach described as merely being tired thereby leaving a furious Mourinho with 9 players on the pitch with 10 minutes left to play while his side were drawing 2:2 against Swansea City. Mourinho who famously described his medical team's action as naive and impulsive during his post match press conference said, 'I wasn't happy with my medical staff, if you are a medical staff or a secretary on the bench, you have to understand the game.'
