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.”

Coming back from a landslide defeat in the New Hampshire primary, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton doggedly criticized Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders on areas where he’d split with Obama while duct-taping herself to the President’s legacy on issues as varied as foreign policy , health care and Wall Street . 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...

MAN CITY SET NEW PREMIER LEAGUE RECORD IN SWANSEA THRASHING

Manchester City passed Swansea City off the pitch on Sunday to set a new Premier League benchmark.  The Etihad Stadium had a party atmosphere this weekend as the new champions took to the field for the first And those celebrations apparently filtered down to their players, who enjoyed every minute of a vintage 5-0 victory over the Swans It marks the first time since 2003-4 that a team have managed so many completed passes, and contributed to a dominant 83% share of possession which is also a new 14-year high as the visitors barely touched the ball over the 90 minutes. Swansea in comparison attempted just 202 passes, less than a fifth of the 1015 tried by their opponents - the first time any side have beaten the thousand mark. One of City's goalscorers was Kevin De Bruyne, who has had a season to remember at the heart of the side's midfield.  De Bruyne netted from outside the area for the fifth time this season in the Premier League, more t...

(Taylor Jewell / Associated Press) Officials are searching for actress Naya Rivera after her 4-year-old son was found alone on a boat she rented Wednesday afternoon, officials said. Rivera rented the boat about 1 p.m. and had an afternoon of swimming with her son, who was the last to see her before she went missing, said Ventura County Sheriff’s Department Capt. Eric Buschow. Buschow said the boy got back onto the boat after a swim but his mother did not follow. “We’re going on the belief that she did go in the water and we have not been able to locate her. So this may well be a case of drowning,” Buschow told reporters. The 4-year-old was found sleeping on the boat by himself by other boaters in the lake. “He’s in good health,” Bushow said of Rivera’s son. The boy was initially reported by authorities to be a 3-year-old girl. “The family is going through a ver...
