The  goalkeeper Joel Pereira  by Jose Mourinho  will make his first start against Crystal Palace on Sunday
“We have two fantastic goalkeepers, and we have a third goalkeeper that I think will be the best Portuguese goalkeeper of the next generation,” said Jose Mourinho earlier this month when he was asked him about his plans for David de Gea and Sergio Romero. On Sunday, Joel Pereira gets his chance to show just how good he can be. The 20-year-old has already tasted the first-team environment at Manchester United once before when replacing Sergio Romero for the final 10 minutes of January’s 4-0 FA Cup win over Wigan Athletic, but Sunday’s Premier League finale against Crystal Palace will mark his full debut at a time when the spotlight is on amidst rumors that De Gea could soon finalize a protracted move to Real Madrid.
As United fans begin to wonder who might be their club’s long-term No.1, Pereira has seen his position at the club change markedly over the last couple of years. The Swiss-born Portuguese spent the first half of 2015-16 on loan at Rochdale, where he made his first eight senior appearances. While he only kept one clean sheet at Spot land, he left a great impression on many at the club. how good he can be.After returning to Old Trafford in the winter, Pereira helped the Under-21s clinch the Premier League title for a second successive year and celebrated the feat by jumping into the away end at White Hart Lane after the crowning 3-2 win against Tottenham. If De Gea does leave this summer, United might well move into the transfer market to find a replacement for the short term. But there is real belief around Old Trafford, not least in the mind of Mourinho, that Pereira could be the answer for some years to come.

An Alaska man tried to take his life. But the bullet passed through him and killed his girlfriend. Victor Sibson does not remember what happened the night he put a gun to his head, he told police. Shortly after 2 a.m. April 19, the 21 year-old Anchorage man held a handgun to his left temple as he stood in the apartment he shared with his girlfriend, Brittany-Mae Haag. She attempted to grab the gun and stop him from taking his own life, prosecutors believe. Police would later find both Sibson and Haag lying on the floor with gunshot wounds, and only one shell casing on the ground, Assistant District Attorney James Fayette said so. Prosecutors believe the bullet that struck Sibson in the head — just behind his left eye — then hit Haag in the chest as she reached over to him. Fayette, who has been a prosecutor in Anchorage since 1993, said he has never seen a “one-shot” case such as this one. “It’s just compelling and tragic all the way around,” he ...

I was a Republican until Donald Trump won

 I was a Republican until Donald Trump won Until last year, I was as Republican as you could get. My family had belonged to the GOP since the 1850s, and both my grandfathers labored in local Republican politics. I started volunteering for the party nearly a half century ago, handing out Nixon pamphlets in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., at the age of 13. I went on to work for Republican politicians in the New York State Legislature and both houses of Congress. And for a couple of years, I served in the research department of the Republican National Committee. But early in the morning of Nov. 9, shortly after Trump claimed victory in the presidential election, I took out my laptop and changed my registration to independent. From the start of the campaign, I knew that I could never vote for such a person. Trump is a mashup of all the sorriest parts of Republican history: Herbert Hoover’s trade policy, Warren Harding’s incompetence, Charles Lindbergh’s dictator worship, and Joseph McCarth...

Manchester bombing: Police arrest 23 year old male suspect A man has been arrested over the terror attack at Manchester Arena . The 23-year-old man was arrested in south Manchester the morning after the bomb and in relation to the attack, according to Greater Manchester Police. Theresa May had earlier confirmed that police believed they knew the identity of the suicide bomber, who died at the scene . They have not publicly suggested whether or not the killer was working alone. The report of the arrest came at the same time as police confirmed that a man had been arrested at the Arndale Centre, amid a bomb scare there . Police suggested that the arrest and the events were not thought to be connected to the night’s attacks. The arrest was announced just moments after Prime Minister Theresa May denounced the “appalling sickening cowardice” of the lone suicide bomber who detonated a homemade device in the foyer of the Manchester Arena just as thousands of young people were leaving...
