  1.  Since the start of February (when Bruno Fernandes signed) only Liverpool have taken more Premier League points than United. A vindicated Solskjaer speaks to BT Sport ... and he’s fuming. “We were set up to fail. They set up the boys to fail. We been to Turkey Wednesday night, we’re playing Saturday lunchtime kick-off, it’s an absolute shambles. And I cannot praise the boys enough for the character they have shown. Them boys deserve better than being thrown out here to fail today. Authorities set us up to fail. You’ve got Liverpool and City, play on Tuesday, they play Sunday. https://cadiun.com Who’s responsible? I’ve had enough. We’ve lost Luke Shaw [hamstring] because of that. So set us up on a Sunday, then. It’s a joke. We were brilliant. They deserve all the praise. Well done.”

  3.  Speaking ahead of his side’s clash with the Reds on Sunday, Guardiola said: “They [Liverpool] are the biggest favourite.“But I think, with what happened with the [coronavirus] pandemic, the situation is a bit different.

  5.  The chairman of leading football anti-racism charity Kick It Out says Premier League clubs are rejecting chances to sign players from Asian countries, backgrounds or heritages because of "lazy racial stereotypes".Sanjay Bhandari said they had conducted a "strategic review" and had spoken to around 250 people involved in the game, with focus on leading clubs signing young Asian players for their academies.Kick It Out - a charity which aims to improve representation in British football and has supported the FA's new diversity code - is attempting to increase the number of players with Asian heritage involved in the professional game, with only a handful of footballers from that background - such as Leicester midfielder Hamza Choudhury - having featured in 30 years of the Premier League.

  9.  Much like the Donga Ilbo, which called for "concrete evidence of such incidents, if any," The Korea Times described the reports as "exaggerated" and worried that the Vietnamese might be "misled by the report to brand Koreans as nothing but undesirable." It ended by hoping the Vietnamese would "correctly evaluate the role of the Koreans in their society."Unlike these editorials, the Joongang Ilbo noted days later that the commander of South Korean forces in Vietnam had written to the Korean defense minister that "frequent misdeeds of some Korean civilians living in Vietnam may nullify the good achievements of 45,000 fighting men." The newspaper called on the government to take immediate action to counter the bad impression Koreans were leaving and proposed that "the government not hesitate, if necessary, to spend some of the money we earn in Vietnam by dispatching on [sic] a highly qualified working force."
