RE:'This Man Utd team is an absolute shambles' - Twitter reacts to Europa League defeat -FROM GOAL.COM


Manchester United's miserable season took another turn for the worse on Thursday when Louis van Gaal's side lost 2-1 to Danish minnows FC Midtjylland in the first leg of their Europa League last-32 tie.

After another disappointing domestic campaign, the Europa League has emerged as the Red Devils' only chance of securing Champions League football for next season.

However, a first leg defeat, coupled with an injury to star man David de Gea, leaves United's season in disarray.

While the victory sparked wild celebrations in Denmark, there was little sympathy on Twitter for Manchester United and Van Gaal.

    ISIS beheads 15-year old boy in Iraq for listening to Western Music

    A young boy named Ayham Hussein has been beheaded by the dreaded ISIS militants in central Mosul for listening to “western music”, according to local sources. He was arrested by militants after allegedly being caught enjoying pop tunes on a portable CD player in the group's Iraqi capital Mosul.

    He was dragged before a Islamist kangaroo court which sentenced him to death by public execution.
    This is the first time someone will be beheaded for listening to Western Music in Iraq as there's no Sharia law prohibiting such and the incident has sparked outrage among locals.
    “Ayham Hussein was captured by the jihadis while listening to Pop music at the grocery store of his father in the Nabi Younis marketplace in western Mosul. He was referred to the Sharia Court, which issued a decision to execute him,” a spokesman for the Nineveh media center told ARA News. “ISIS jihadis publicly beheaded the boy,” the source said to ARA news, speaking on condition of anonymity.

    EXCLUSIVE: FOOTBALL, MANCHESTER UNITED; SHOULD VAN GAAL BE SACKED?

    Should Manchester United FC Head Coach Loius van Gaal be sacked after their 2nd loss in 1 match week?

    MANCHESTER UNITED FANS ARE FUMING AT THURSDAY NIGHT LOSS... 2ND LOSS IN A ROW.


    Manchester United's travelling supporters made their feelings clear after watching their side's embarrassing 2-1 Europa League defeat to FC Midtjylland.

    The fans inside the MCH Arena lambasted their own players at the full-time whistle, chanting "we're f****** s***" after Louis van Gaal's side suffered yet another defeat, their 10th in all competitions in the 2015-16 campaign.

    United had took the lead in Denmark in this round of 32 first-leg encounter, with Memphis Depay poking home after 37 minutes.

    But that lead lasted less than 10 minutes as Pione Sisto equalised shortly before half-time and then Paul Onuachu compounded Van Gaal's misery by netting a second-half winner after Juan Mata's flimsy challenge on the edge of the box.

    VIDEO: Klopp nutmegs Firmino

    Jurgen Klopp is back in Germany, and it's fair to say he was in a good mood as Liverpool prepared for their Europa League clash against Augsburg.

    The former Borussia Dortmund boss was caught performing a cheeky nutmeg on Roberto Firmino during training on Wednesday evening, and seemed very pleased with himself in the aftermath.




    Firmino, on the other hand, seemed a little miffed to have been made a fool of as he stretched during the warm-up before realising it was his manager who was to blame and making a joke of the situation.

    Kim Kardashian Thinks Stories About Kanye West’s Money Trouble Are "So Funny"

    After digitally battling with Wiz Khalifa, claiming responsibility for Taylor Swift 's fame, asking Mark Zuckerberg to invest $1 billion in his ideas all while dropping anew album and fashion line, it's safe to say Kanye West has had quite the whirlwind month.

    Following the rapper's most recent obscure antics on social media—particularly his requests for other people's money "to bring more beautiful ideas to the world"—reports inspired by the tweets have popped up alleging the Grammy winner is millions upon millions of dollars in debt.
    "If I spent my money on my ideas I could not afford to take care of my family," he told fans on Twitter. "I am in a place that so many artists end up." 
    To add fuel to the fire, outlets also speculate that his Twitter rants are a matter of contention between him and his wife, Kim Kardashian
    According to a source close to the couple, the rants are anything but angering.  
    "Kim isn't mad at Kanye. She thinks all the stories about his money problems are so funny because it's all kind of inaccurate," the insider shared. "Kanye laughs and thinks it's funny when he tweets and doesn't care what people say."

    As for the paper in the bank, while the father of two's current financial standing is still to be confirmed, West does admittedly get flowery with the English language.
    "I know I confuse you guys sometimes but please bare with me," he tweeted to his fans while trying to explain his project-funding process. 
    "It's not debt per se," the insider added. "He always invests in himself and that's where that [53 million] number came from."
    Debt per se? Yes, Yeezy, you're still confusing us.

    Cyprus to Go Ahead With 3rd Gas Exploration Licensing Round

    Cyprus' government says it will push ahead with a third licensing round to search for potential natural gas deposits off the Mediterranean island nation's southern shores.
    Government spokesman Nicos Christodoulides said Tuesday the process will begin as soon as possible, but offered no further details.

    U.S. company Noble Energy, which received an exploration license in 2007, discovered a field around 100 miles (160 kilometers) south of Cyprus that's estimated to contain more than four trillion cubic feet of gas.
    France's Total and Italy's Eni along with its South Korean partner KOGAS have extended by two years exploration licenses they received during a second round in 2012.
    Eni last year discovered in waters off Egypt what it called the largest gas deposit ever found in the Mediterranean Sea.
