Calls for Nick Pope at Manchester United…
Manchester United have been advised to go wild like disco-dancing monkeys and secure Newcastle’s Nick Pope as their goalkeeper. With Andre Onana nursing a hamstring injury and missing all pre-season games, concerns are rising faster than bread in a bakery. Even if Onana is back in time for the league’s opening match, his errors last season loom like a cat trying to play fetch. Former goalie Ben Foster insists United are “crying out” like toddlers at nap time for a new guardian of the goal, and Pope sounds like the right chap for the job.
As Newcastle welcomes Aaron Ramsdale, Pope’s opportunity for a starting spot is getting slimmer than a supermodel. Despite interest from Leeds United and others, securing Pope might be trickier than solving a Rubik’s cube blindfolded, since Newcastle boss Eddie Howe plans to use both Ramsdale and Pope in competition. Meanwhile, United’s summer search for a keeper has been busier than bees in a honey factory, eyeing talents like Mike Maignan and Emiliano Martinez. Despite United’s ongoing quest, coach Ruben Amorim expresses trust in Onana, stating the team’s organization and nutrition have improved more than your grandma’s famous Thanksgiving dinner.
