Manchester United made no attempt to hijack Pep Guardiolas move to Manchester City, according to Sky sources. City stole the Deadline Day headlines by announcing that Guardiola will replace Manuel Pellegrini as manager when he leaves Bayern Munich in the summer.A statement from the Etihad said first contact with Guardiola was made in recent weeks, but it is understood United have been prepared for the announcement for months. And sources say the early confirmation has spared United the temptation of entering a summer fight for footballs most in-demand manager, which was always likely to have just one winner.Current United boss Louis van Gaal has a year to run on his Old Trafford contract.

Cheap New Balance Shoes From China . -- The Portland Timbers and Real Salt Lake played to a 0-0 tie Saturday night that left the top of the Western Conference standings unchanged. Alastair Cook admitted England have a lot to work on as they approach their five-Test tour of India.England slipped to a 108-run defeat in Mirpur on Sunday - their first loss to Bangladesh in Test cricket - after the morning saw them drop a host of chances and the evening saw them lose 10 wickets in a session.It left Cook bemoaning Englands inexperience in such conditions and accepting that England havent got world-class spinners.He also warned that the team had to stay strong and stay together in the coming weeks to ensure they were no long-term damaging effects of such a chastening defeat to the No. 9-ranked Test team. England leave for a five-Test series against the world No.1 team, India - a tour for which Cook rated England as pretty heavy underdogs - later this week.We showed our inexperience in these conditions, a shell-shocked Cook said. A lot of these guys have not played many Test matches and when that ball got rolling we found it very hard to stop.You lose a couple of wickets, then men come round the bat and the crowd get into it. Being able to deal with it and get through it is crucial. You know it doesnt last forever, but that half an hour is crucial and we just werent good enough. We have to learn fast. Theres a lot of talent in this team and the experience on this trip will only help us if we take the right things out of it. Theres a lot to work on.England lost all ten of their wickets for 64 runs in the final session, but Cook accepted his side had also erred in the field. They put down several chances of varying difficulty while the spinners struggled to maintain control.I thought 240 would have been a really good chase, Cook said. They got 30 too many. We had four or five, not easy chances, but chances you need to take and I started the rot with one at leg slip. You need to take them, especially in low-scoring games.We didnt bowl great. And yes, their spinners did out-bowl our spinners. Were not hiding behind the fact that we havent got world-class spinners.It doesnt mean our spinners are bad bowlers. Weve got guys who can bowl some really good balls and spells. But we cant quite control well enough at the moment. We dont holdd our length and line well enough.dddddddddddd We bowl jaffas, but were easy to knock off strike and we dont build the kind of pressure wed like.Amid the acceptance of his own teams faults, however, Cook was keen to praise a much-improved Bangladesh side.Its very easy sitting back and saying its just Bangladesh but in these conditions, on spinning wickets, their bowlers are good, Cook said. I know the guy who got 19 wickets - Mehedi Hasan Miraz - isnt experienced, but hes a very good bowler and hes experienced in these conditions.Conditions have been very tough, but I have no complaints about it: thats what Test cricket is about. Bangladesh thoroughly deserved their win. Theyve obviously taken big strides. Theyll find it hard on bouncy wickets, but in these conditions theyve a good side.Despite the defeat, England look likely to stick with the same balance of the side that they utilised here. While one or two of the personnel will change - Gary Ballance, who averaged 6 in the series, looks especially vulnerable, while Stuart Broad is certain to return in place of Steven Finn - Cook remains keen on an attack featuring three seamers and three spinners.I like three and three, he said. We know we have our strength in seam bowling and reverse-swing. We take more wickets with that than with our spinners.We go to India as pretty heavy underdogs, theres no doubt about it. But sometimes English people like being underdogs.England are due to arrive in Mumbai on Wednesday - though they may try to arrange an earlier flight - and had planned to give the players a few days off with no training planned before Saturday. With Saqlain Mushtaq joining up with the squad for a brief stint as spin consultant in Mumbai, it may be that those training plans are reconsidered.Certainly it seems likely that a few players will ask for one-on-one sessions with Saqlain, but plans to allocate any of those players who have yet to enjoy much game-time on this trip to a club side around Mumbai have been all but abandoned. They fly to Rajkot on Sunday. ' ' '
