POCH EYES ANDERSEN

-

MANCHESTER UNITED misfit Fred has revealed he’s angry that Jose Mourinho is sabotaging his Brazilian dream.

The South American midfielder (above) has been branded a flop since his £52million move from Shakhtar Donetsk in the summer.

Fred, 25, has 11 internatio­nal caps but was axed by Brazil boss Tite for the games against Uruguay and Cameroon earlier this month. He said: “I’ve played very little at United so it’s normal for Professor Tite not to be able to evaluate me, even though I’ve worked hard with him before.

“I was annoyed, but I have to know how to deal with the sadness to be able to help me take a step forward.

“The coach (Mourinho) has chosen not to put me in the team very often. That’s his choice.

“I cannot let that shake me. I have to be patient. I hope that my football will be 100 per cent soon.” JOE DUNNE has been sacked as head coach of League Two side Cambridge.

The U’s have won just five of their 20 league games this season and are 21st in the table, just three points clear of the relegation zone. Assistant head coach Mark Bonner will take temporary charge of the first team as the search for Dunne’s successor begins. TOTTENHAM are in pole position to land Sampdoria’s £30m-rated central defender Joachim Andersen.

Mauricio Pochettino sees the the Danish internatio­nal, 22, as a replacemen­t for Toby Alderweire­ld, who is out of contract at the end of the season and is stalling on a new deal.
