Pogba on Man Utd defeat against the Spurs

Pogba struggled to find answers for the swift collapse that continued his team's poor start to the Premier League season. "Even we don't understand what happened," the 25-year-old told reporters. "We started the game really well, we conceded two goals in the second half. The first goal was a real blow. We didn't understand why because we had the game in hand. "One goal, two...we kept pushing, we had chances, and we conceded the third. "It's bizarre. We were determined, we started well, and in the end we lost 3-0. It's a shock. "We have to keep going, we must not worry. We must work. We are still Manchester United and we won't give up on anything." Pogba, who played the full 90 minutes, thanked the club's supporters for their backing and insisted it was not time to panic. "The fans kept pushing us, they were really behind us," he said. "We feel really sorry for them, very disappointed. We wanted to do better. "I think it was an undeserved defeat for us. In our desire, in everything we put into it. But football can be cruel. We just have to bounce back. "It won't be easy, but it's just the start of the season. I prefer to start badly and end well than start well and finish badly."

England manager, Southgate speaks on Ademola Lookman choosing to play for Super Eagles

England manager, Gareth Southgate has said they are doing everything possible to stop Ademola Lookman from switching allegiances to play for Nigeria. The Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) are confident they can tempt the Everton winger, even though he is a regular for the Three Lions’ Under-21 side. London-born Lookman is eligible to play for the Super Eagles through his parents. But Southgate remains confident they can keep the 20-year-old, who had an impressive spell on loan at Germany’s RB Leipzig last season. “I know every country is quite aggressive in their recruiting and I know they have always had an interest in him, but he is playing and has been in our squads, the 20s, 21s. “So in terms of encouragement through game time, we are doing as much as we possibly can,” Southgate told the UK Mirror

Nigeria Must Account For Victims Of ‘Enforced Disappearance’, Says Amnesty International In a statement issued on Thursday to mark the International Day of the Victims of Enforced Disappearances, the human rights group accused the government of holding several persons in secret detention facilities without charge or trial across the country. “So many families are still searching for loved ones who have not been seen for many years,” the Director of Amnesty International Nigeria, Osai Ojigho, said. “In some cases, families live with the pain of not knowing whether their loved ones are alive or dead.” She added, “It’s time the government did the right thing – and either release these detainees or charge them with a recognisable criminal offence in a fair trial without recourse to death penalty.” Ojigho accused the government of using enforced disappearance as a tactic to “silence critics and instil fear” in civilian populations whom she said were facing the double threat of a...
