Y’all don’t even know my name”. “He has this thing going on with his neck, but we don’t know the extent of the seriousness”. Beckham issued a written apology Wednesday in which he said: “This isn’t about anything that was said or done to me”.
But that is something I speak with Ed Woodward by himself and not you.

Search teams combed damaged homes and businesses for people still missing, including at least one man in hard-hit Benton County. The rushing water separated the family as they got out of the auto , he said, but the boy was later reunited with his family.

Meanwhile, Stoke City are 11th in the league and are only behind United by six points as they have 23 so far. Oscar blazed a penalty over the bar after slipping on the run-up as Watford held on to secure a point.
Van Gaal, who succeeded David Moyes in the summer of 2014, said the club had backed him “all the time” but added: “We have lost so there is a new situation”.
Embattled Manchester United coach Louis van Gaal may have to clear his desk for the timid play in their recent outing against Stoke City, losing 2-0.
But if United slip to another defeat, van Gaal is expected to leave of his own accord, after becoming disillusioned with his own players, and the pressure and criticism from the British press.
BBC Sport quote him as saying: “It is not always the club that has to fire or sack me.
We could not cope with the circumstances and then we gave a very bad goal away”.
“That is what I have analysed”, said Van Gaal, whose side’s next game is at home to Chelsea on Monday.
“I said at half-time we had nothing to lose and we coped better after that”.
With just one day between matches, Van Gaal admits there will be little opportunity for his players to regain their fitness for the match against the Premier League champions.
Is van Gaal to blame alone?
“No, I don’t think so because I have seen that also in my other jobs”, he said when asked if he expected his team to be mentally stronger.
“My worry for United is that whoever comes in they’ve got a squad lacking athleticism”, said the former Liverpool and Fulham midfielder.
Wayne Rooney, who started the game on the bench for the first time this year, replaced winger Memphis Depay before the second half started.
Giggs has been heavily linked with the Swansea job and could well be subject of a fresh approach by Liberty Stadium bosses should United’s hierarchy go for an outsider when van Gaal eventually leaves. The next two days will show whether it was his parting gesture. You see that different players cope with that pressure differently.
