Korean newspaper "gives advice" to help Cong Phuong explode; MU receives good news before the decisive match with Barca

Hanoi FC's Mr. Hien failed to buy Van Nistelrooy and Guti

Recently, Mr. Nguyen Giang Dong - Former President of Saigon FC personally revealed interesting stories about Mr. Hien and Hanoi FC. Among them, Mr. Hien once negotiated with super agent Jorge Mendes to buy two stars who used to play for Real Madrid, Van Nistelrooy and Guti.

Mr. Giang Dong said: "Mr. Hien is a thoughtful, passionate and daring person. Regarding football, Mr. Hien has a good relationship with super agent Jorge Mendes and once invited him to Vietnam.

During a trip to Portugal, Mr. Hien proposed to Mendes to bring some famous veterans like Nistelrooy or Guti to Hanoi T&T to play. Those are the players that Mendes represents, but they refused because they did not know much about Vietnamese football.

Surely football enthusiasts will know Nistelrooy and Guti, players who used to play for Real Madrid and left Bernabeu in 2010 when President Florentino Perez cleaned up the force, building the Galacticos 2.0 empire with Ronaldo, Benzema, Kaka or Modric...

Korean newspaper "gives advice" to help Cong Phuong explode

"...Due to Incheon United's playing style, Cong Phuong has not been able to break through and finish. In round 7 of the K.League, the Vietnamese striker will still be the leader in the attack, but due to weak force and form, it will be too difficult for Incheon United to defeat championship candidate Ulsan," Sporbiz newspaper commented that Cong Phuong and Incheon United will lose their 5th consecutive match.

However, according to Sporbiz, if coach Andersen changes his playing style to take advantage of Cong Phuong's ability, Incheon United can make a surprise.

“Incheon United’s tactical operations and playing style are having too many problems, along with many injuries to key players, so now is the time to consider Cong Phuong as a new solution that can bring efficiency. Coach Andersen needs to find a way to take advantage of Cong Phuong’s speed and breakthrough ability by creating space from short passes instead of using long balls like the current style.

Hopefully, Coach Andersen will use and exploit Cong Phuong's strengths to help Incheon United cause a shock against Ulsan," Sporbiz wrote.

The match between Incheon United and Ulsan takes place at 2:00 p.m. on April 14. Ulsan is the only unbeaten team (4 wins, 2 draws) in K.League 2019 so far.

Liverpool dominate Premier League March awards

In March, Sadio Mane showed great form with 3 goals in 4 matches. In the context of the main striker Mohamed Salah's decline in form, it was Mane who shone to help Liverpool continue the race for the 2018/19 Premier League title with defending champion Man City.

Mane beat a host of other players to win the "Premier League Player of the Month" award, including Andy Robertson (Liverpool), Seamus Coleman (Everton), Bernardo Silva (Man City), Jamie Vardy (Leicester) and James Ward-Prowse (Southampton). This is the second time Mane has received the honor, after the first time in August 2017.

In the category of the best coach of March, Mane's coach Klopp won the award. Last month, the German coach led Liverpool to consecutive victories against Burnley, Fulham and Tottenham after drawing 0-0 with Everton. Klopp's "defeated generals" were Pep Guardiola (Man City), Ralph Hasenhuttl (Southampton), Brendan Rodgers (Leicester) and Marco Silva (Everton).

MU welcomes reinforcements in the decisive match with Barca

Good news for coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as striker Alexis Sanchez has recovered from injury and can play in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Barcelona next midweek.

Alexis Sanchez has not played for MU since March 2nd after suffering a knee injury in the match against Southampton. But recently, he returned to training in completely normal condition.

However, the match against West Ham on Saturday seems too early for Sanchez. Therefore, he will only play against Barca in the quarter-final second leg of the 2018/19 Champions League at the Nou Camp next midweek. This will be an emotional reunion for Sanchez as he played for Barca from 2011-2014.

Sharing about Sanchez's situation, coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said: "Sanchez has trained with the whole team again. Today, Sanchez had 2 training sessions and there was no recurrence of injury. But I'm not sure if he is 100% ready for the match against West Ham. Maybe, the confrontation with Barca will be more suitable for Sanchez."

Real Madrid offered MU to exchange Paul Pogba for Toni Kroos

AS newspaper announced that Toni Kroos feels his cycle with the Spanish Royal team is coming to an end and is ready to leave this summer.

Real Madrid's leadership also plans to sell the German midfielder to have more budget for summer shopping plans.

MU are said to be ready to offer £60 million for Toni Kroos, but Real Madrid are looking for a figure that could be double that. The Bernabeu team plans to persuade MU to put Paul Pogba and Toni Kroos on the negotiating table.

Zidane is keen to have Paul Pogba on his team, and the French midfielder is also said to be keen on joining Real Madrid, having reportedly negotiated the deal himself.

MU does not want to lose Pogba, but if forced to sell, the Red Devils' leadership will ask for one of the names they are eyeing at Bernabeu, such as Varane, Bale or Toni Kroos,...
