Manchester United utility man Daley Blind appears to have confirmed that he will more than likely be staying at Old Trafford this summer despite the transfer speculation, even taking the opportunity to criticise those he feels were too eager to write him off.
Manchester United still has not release any news regarding the finalization of the transfer though the players of the team are thrilled to have the 23 year old Frenchman back at Old Trafford.
Juventus paid just £800,000 in compensation for Pogba, who has since become one of world football’s most talented midfielders. In a report by Reuters he was quoted as saying: “I’m going to help the team as much as I can and do what I’m good at, creating chances and scoring goals”.

The Portuguese coach was loved by Chelsea players and fans alike during both of his spells at Stamford Bridge, and Rooney thinks Mourinho’s ability to inspire self-belief in his squad will be crucial to United regaining their swagger after three years without a title.
“Hopefully we can score a lot of goals next season because that’s what we want to do”. And we had some great times together. It is also United’s last match of the pre-season before they take on Premier League champions Leicester City in the 2016 Community Shield at Wembley.
Wayne Rooney: “It’s a huge honour for me to be granted a testimonial by the club and I’m very grateful”.

But as Rooney said, United once more look capable of making a tilt at the title, boasting world-class players and a world-class manager. I think I’ve done a great job until now and we will see how it ends.
