Paul Pogba 'makes transfer decision' after Bruno Fernandes claims emerge Paul Pogba reportedly still wants to leave Manchester United despite claims he's keen to play alongside Bruno Fernandes. Pogba's future has been the subject of much speculation all season, as the World Cup winner has largely watched United from the injury room. Until January the Red Devils were reliant on the French midfielder returning to transform their floundering season as they push for a top-four finish. But after signing Fernandes in the January transfer window, focus has moved away from Pogba and towards the fledgling Portuguese. Recent reports claimed Pogba has been keeping a close eye on the way in which United have been improving since January. It was also claimed that the midfielder is looking forward to returning from his ankle injury to link up with Fernandes and form a partnership with him at Old Trafford.

Trump’s most powerful ally in undermining the election: William Barr As Donald Trump continues to sow doubt about the integrity of the US election, he has found a remarkably powerful ally in William Barr, the US attorney general, who has not only enthusiastically embraced the president’s claims but also spread misinformation on his own.

After Trump encouraged North Carolina voters to vote twice, which is illegal, Barr declined to definitively say it was illegal, instead saying he wasn’t familiar with the laws in every state. (A Department of Justice handbook makes it clear that it’s a crime to vote more than once in any election involving a federal office). Barr also lied on CNN earlier this month and said that a Texas man was indicted for filling out 1,700 mail-in ballots.
