Manchester United and England footballer Brian Greenhoff died today, aged 60. Greenhoff made 221 appearances for Manchester United from 1970-79 as a midfielder and centre-back. He was capped 18 times for England, and helped United win the 1977 FA Cup. After leaving United, Greenhoff played for Leeds United from 1979-82. I vividly remember watching Greenhoff on television when he played for Manchester United and Leeds. The goal that I still remember to this day is the one he scored against West Bromwich Albion in the 1978-79 season (you can see it in the video below), where the ball looped in off the crossbar. In the late 1970s, Greenhoff’s brother Jimmy played in the same team as Brian at Manchester United. Since I’m not a Manchester United or Leeds supporter, my memories of Greenhoff aren’t as crystal-clear as some of you, the readers, so feel free to share your memories of him in the comments section below to paint a better picture for others. Here’s a tribute video to Brian Greenhoff. Manchester United Footballer Brian Greenhoff Dies, Aged 60 [VIDEO] is a post from EPL Talk - Independent voice of EPL soccer fans since 2005.

Paris Saint-Germain have offered to meet Wayne Rooney’s wages in an effort to convince Manchester United to part with the striker. It’s understood that PSG are willing to pay Rooney’s £300,000 per week wages. The French club are interested in pairing Rooney with Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Rooney is still reportedly disgruntled at the club, and the promise of a club matching his salary should push him closer to the edge of leaving the Old Trafford side. Perhaps the only obstacle in the path between Rooney and Paris Saint-Germain is Manchester United themselves. The Red Devils paid Everton £25 million for Rooney in 2004, and the club will want to recoup a princely sum to let Rooney go. Publicly Manchester United have stated that Rooney is not for sale. But privately, I wouldn’t be surprised if discussions will take place in the near future about whether United should seriously consider PSG’s intentions. What do you think? Should Manchester United consider Paris Saint-Germain’s interest? And do you think this is a smart career move for Rooney who will be guaranteed Champions League football at a club where he’d be happier? Tell us your opinions in the comments section below.
