      Premiere of Man Utd’s Prime Video docu-series about 1999 Treble awkwardly hijacked by Man City rival Erling Haaland

      by

      ERLING HAALAND may have taken trolling to the next level.The Manchester City sensation, 23, is bidding to fire the Citizens to a second title in two seasons since his arrival.Manchester United fans look away nowCredit: City xtra XAmazon are releasing a documentary about the 1999 Treble WinnersCredit: Prime VideoAnd not only is he casting an enormous shadow over Manchester United’s current squad, he is looking down on their past greats.A Prime Video docu-series about the famous 1999 Treble winners is having its premier today.But fans heading to Printworks to watch it will be greeted by an unfortunate sight.Haaland’s face is plastered on a huge billboard above the entrance to the venue advertising the his latest venture.READ MORE IN FOOTBALLIts tagline reads: “He stole your trophies. Steal his gold.”The Norwegian is a huge fan of mobile strategy game Clash of Clans and players are now able to recruit or play against him as the Barbarian King.Amazon will hope the advert does not take the shine off their three-part series.The streaming platform revealed the trailer for the show last month.Most read in FootballCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERSIt features members of the Red Devils team that lifted a historic trio of Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League trophies.The trailer teases interviews with both players and staff, including Sir Alex Ferguson and assistant Steve McClaren.What happened to these five forgotten Manchester United wonderkidsDavid Beckham, Paul Scholes, Gary Neville, Phil Neville, Peter Schmeichel, Dwight Yorke, Teddy Sheringham, Nicky Butt, Andy Cole and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer all feature.One episode will be dedicated to the stories behind each trophy.Ventureland – the production company behind the Beckham series on Netflix – are the gurus bringing the 99 documentary to life.Oscar-winning producer John Battsek is joined by director Sampson Collins in steering the ship.No English side could match United’s incredible achievement until Haaland and City last season – not that any Red Devils supporters will need another reminder of that.SunSport’s verdict on Man Utd flopsSir Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos have a busy summer ahead to get Man Utd’s squad in order for next season. Below SunSport gives it verdict on how they should deal with the Red Devils flops this summer.
      Andre Onana – STAY: After a dodgy start at Old Trafford Onana has proven to be one of the more reliable members of the squad this season despite being peppered with shots constantly.
      Altay Bayindir – GO: Reports in February suggested Bayindir was unhappy with his bit part role at Man Utd amid interest from Turkish giants Galatasaray. If profit can be made on a sale then it should be done.
      Tom Heaton – STAY: Veteran goalkeeper Heaton, 38, is a reliable back-up and is on a relatively small wage at the club. So long as he is happy it makes sense to keep him.
      Aaron Wan-Bissaka – GO: Wan-Bissaka, 26, has never managed to make the right-back position his own. With his contract up in 2025 it makes sense to cash in now.
      Diogo Dalot – STAY: Dalot, 26, has been one of Man Utd’s most consistent performers this season.
      Raphael Varane – GO: If it wasn’t for his injury record there would be a strong shout to keep Varane, but costs need to be cut to allow the squad to be freshened up.
      Harry Maguire – GO: Maguire has showed he has the right character to be at Man Utd but overall ability and desired profile are another matter, with Maguire too slow to play in a high line defence.
      Lisandro Martinez – STAY: Martinez, 26, is second to none in terms of build up play. He needs a long-term defensive partner on the right side and to cut out the injuries which have plagued him this season.
      Jonny Evans – GO: Veteran campaigner Evans could easily be on the stay list if he was only going to be a bit part player. But he has shown his advanced years at times this season.
      Victor Lindelof – GO:  Lindelof, 29, has been reliable if not unremarkable in his Man Utd career. He has one year left on his contract so should be moved on if a decent transfer fee can be got for him.
      Willy Kambwala – STAY: He should be given the opportunity to mature for a few years behind a senior CB pairing before stepping into the first team as a starter or being moved on.
      Luke Shaw – GO: One of the Premier League’s best left-backs when fit, Shaw has been a good servant when available. But alas that has been his Achilles heel once again this season.
      Tyrell Malacia – STAY: Malacia, 24, was decent enough to earn some merit in his first season at Man Utd before injury ended his season and inadvertently led to his second season being a write off.
      Sofyan Amrabat – GO: Amrabat, 27, looked like a world beater at the Qatar World Cup with Morocco. But he’s had an underwhelming season in England and his loan spell will almost certainly not be made permanent.
      Casemiro – GO: An alarming physical decline has seen him turn from key star to burden. If a club is willing to buy the 32-year-old – who has two more years on his contract – then United should snatch their hand off.
      Christian Eriksen – GO: Eriksen proved a useful asset and Ineos should look to bring in another player with similar traits, but frankly his legs have looked gone towards the end of this season.
      Kobbie Mainoo – STAY: The first of the so-called untouchables, Mainoo has been a rare glimmer of hope in the Red Devils midfield this season.
      Mason Mount – STAY: Mount can be given the benefit of the doubt until summer 2025 at least after a debut season riddled with injury.
      Scott McTominay – STAY: McTominay, 27, has proven himself to be a brilliant plan B off the bench this season, and that is exactly why Ineos should look to keep him.
      Bruno Fernandes – STAY: Man Utd’s best player since his arrival just over four years ago, Fernandes, 29, remains second-to-none when it comes to creating chances while his tenacity boosts those around him.
      Antony – GO: There’s a case to argue that Antony may be the worst pound-for-pound signing in Premier League history. Despite some memorable moments he simply isn’t Man Utd quality.
      Anthony Martial – GO: Ultimately Martial needs to be let go when his deal runs out this summer after an appalling injury record of late.
      Marcus Rashford – STAY: As easy as it would be to say Rashford should leave the club this summer, it is difficult to look at the market and find many available players capable of scoring 30 goals a season.
      Alejandro Garnacho – STAY: Another third of the untouchables trio, Garnacho has made the right-wing his own since coming into it. He’s a raw talent but has shown he has the quality to improve.
      Rasmus Hojlund – STAY: A slow burner in his first Man Utd season, the 21-year-old has often been starved of supply which has led to him being unable to get the goals his movement and unselfish play often merits.
      Amad Diallo – STAY: In the fleeting moments he has been on the pitch for Man Utd this season, Diallo has looked dangerous and exciting. He should be given a chance to flourish with some proper chances in the first team across a whole season. More

      ‘That’s wrong’ – Boxing fans fume as ‘completely out of it’ Rolly Romero is interviewed after being KO’d by Pitbull Cruz

      by

      BOXING fans fumed as “completely out of it” Rolly Romero was interviewed after being brutally knocked out by Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz. Romero put his WBA super-lightweight title on the line in Las Vegas in the chief support of Amazon Prime’s inaugural pay-per-view event. Rolly Romero was left ‘completely out of it’ after being KO’d by Isaac ‘Pitbull’ CruzCredit: Esther Lin/Premier Boxing ChampionsRomero lost his title after being stopped in round eightCredit: GettyHe was rocked in the opening round, sent reeling backwards, but managed to survive the early onslaught. But Cruz, 25, came on strong half way through the title bout and almost had Romero, 29, out on his feet in the seventh. The writing was on the wall as again the Mexican poured on the pressure the very next round with a barrage of shots. And after one too many left hooks and right hands had Romero in all sort of trouble, referee Tom Taylor rightfully stepped in. It crowned Cruz as the new champion and Romero suffered only his second loss after being KO’d by Gervonta Davis in 2022. The American was interviewed moments after being stopped on his feet and looked visibly dazed. He struggled to get his words out and had to pause before saying: “I want to tell everybody, thanks for coming out. “And honestly, happy Easter everybody, you guys. It’s like Jesus was resurrected, I’ll be back. Most read in Boxing”I want to tell everybody, happy Easter and thank you for supporting me and following me.” Fans were left in discomfort at the watch as one said: “Rolly Romero was completely out of it after getting KO’d by Pitbull Cruz.” Errol Spence Jr calls out Sebastian Fundora after Tim Tszyu suffers shock lossAnother added: “Interviewing a fighter that has been KO’d is wrong.”One asked: “Why would they even interview him.”Cruz settled the score after a bitter build up of being probed and poked by Romero.And he gloated: “I didn’t want to come here and just win, I wanted to massacre Rolly and make him eat all the garbage he said to me. “I fought with the intention to leave the decision out of the judges’ hands.”Cruz stopped Romero on his feet to win the titleCredit: Esther Lin/Premier Boxing Champions More

      Tim Tszyu in shock ‘bloodbath’ points loss against Sebastian Fundora after boxing icon’s son’s suffers horror cut

The lanky American was considered an outsider coming into the bout having only been stopped by Brian Mendoza 11 months prior. But Fundora pulled off a remarkable upset victory to hand Tszyu – son of Aussie legend Kostya – a first loss in 25 bouts.Tszyu, 29, said: “Look, I told you, I’m an old throwback fighter whatever circumstances. “I couldn’t see but all credit belongs to the man who won tonight. These things happen. The momentum was rolling. “I was swinging hard in the first rounds and then ‘boom’, you’re blinded completely. But, look, this is boxing. “This is part of the sport and it happens. Congratulations to Fundora – he’s the new king at 154.”An accidental elbow from Fundora, 26, in round two left Tszyu completely covered in blood with claret running down his face. Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERSBut the ringside doctor and referee cleared the son of a legend to box on, doing so with impaired vision for ten of the 12 rounds. And it was Fundora – who claimed to have broken his nose – that just edged out Tszyu to join his sister Gabriela as a world champion. ‘The height difference is killing me,’ cry fans as Tszyu and Fundora face off following last minute change of fighterHe said: “We’ve been praying for this moment for a long time and I’m just happy that Tim Tszyu gave me the opportunity and the opportunity became my dream come true. “I didn’t want to break my nose today, but this is my life and this is boxing. I just had to be smart. I used my brain. I hope you saw me use my boxing skills tonight.“Tszyu is a world champion for a reason. It’s an honor to share the ring and make history with him. This means the world to me. “My dad is in the running for Trainer of the Year with me and my sister both being world champions. Boxing is our life and I’m very grateful.”Former unified welterweight world champ Errol Spence Jr, 34, got in the ring to call out Fundora. But Terence Crawford, 36, who beat the Texan last year, has also set his sights on a move up in weight to challenge Fundora.

recent defeats to Roma, Fulham and Wolves suggest they’re not equipped to topple the title contenders on Merseyside.Our Prediction: 3-2 to LiverpoolLiverpool’s home record is imperiousCredit: GettyManchester City v ArsenalSunday afternoon brings the main event, a hugely significant fixture in the title race.Like Liverpool, Pep Guardiola’s side are unbeaten at home in all competitions this season but that record will be put to the test this weekend as the Gunners boast the best away record among all Premier League clubs this term.Mikel Arteta’s side have earned 29 points on the road through 34 goals scored (most) and just 11 goals conceded (fewest).Recent history is very much on Man City’s side although Arsenal won 1-0 at the Emirates back in October to signal a possible turning of the tide.The North Londoners have won eight league games in a row since the turn of the year, mostly in ultra convincing fashion.Still, a trip to the Etihad is about as daunting a prospect as one gets in world football.Our Prediction: 1-1 drawCrunch timeCredit: ReutersThink you know better?
