Manchester United will look at loan signings in January, says Solskjaer


The Red Devils are still looking to recover from their worst start to a league season for 30 years and are languishing in 10th in the Premier League

Manchester United could make use of the loan market to strengthen their team in January, according to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
United are still looking to recover from their worst start to a league season for 30 years, languishing in 10th in the Premier League and having lost four of their opening 12 games.
The manager will be hopeful that a corner has been turned following the 3-1 win against Brighton with which the team signed off before the international break
United still face a daunting task if they are to haul themselves into contention for qualifying for the Champions League, with the gap to make up to fourth-place Chelsea still 10 points.
“It's not about X amount of money,” said Solskjaer when asked how big the club's transfer budget might be.
“[Buying players] is about who we think is going to be good for the club in the long term, not just for three or four months.
”[Are those people available?] Probably not, because that's the thing in January - not many clubs will sell players they want to keep in January. 
“Maybe one or two could be a loan deal, but that's not a money thing, that's to help the team. But we're getting players back. We're looking at what can be available for us.”

Sanders, for his part, did his best to hold his ground, justifying his criticism of the President and presenting himself as a change agent while pointing out Clinton’s own differences with Obama. Their heated exchanges over Obama’s legacy reflected how the President has b...

Oscar Pistorius Will Be Sentenced for Murder After Dismissal of his Appeal

A lawyer for Oscar Pistorius says South Africa’s highest court has dismissed the former track star’s appeal of his murder conviction. The ruling by the Constitutional Court on Thursday clears the way for a judge to sentence Pistorius for murder at a hearing scheduled for April 18. Defense lawyer Andrew Fawcett confirmed the Constitutional Court’s decision and said: “We’ll proceed to the sentencing.” Pistorius, who killed girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp in his home in 2013, had appealed to the Constitutional Court, saying another court erred when it overturned a manslaughter conviction and declared the Olympic athlete guilty of murder. The minimum sentence for murder in South Africa is 15 years, though a judge can reduce that sentence for what the law describes as exceptional circumstances. Pistorius is currently under house arrest. [ Time ]
