Manchester United stars told to ‘shut up’ as Fred brands Ralf Rangnick’s interim appointment ‘strange’ but insists Champions League glory this season ‘isn’t crazy’

by Leave a Comment

Manchester United midfielder Fred and his teammates have been told to ‘shut up’ after he admitted the decision to appoint an interim manager to replace Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was ‘a little bit strange’.

The Brazilian midfielder revealed he felt the decision to bring in Ralf Rangnick in until the end of the season has left a degree of uncertainty around Old Trafford.

Rangnick was appointed as temporary successor to Solskjaer at the start of December with results a mixed bag since then.

The German manager, who will take up a consultancy role at the end of the campaign when a permanent boss is employed, has struggled to get some of his stars firing, although there are now some green shoots.

Harry Maguire and Cristiano Ronaldo have been among those struggling but English starlet Jadon Sancho is now begininng to flourish.

And Fred feels the club should have had a long-term approach to replacing Solskjaer.

“It is a bit strange,” he said in an interview with TNT Sports Brazil. “I know in football it’s important to get good results as soon as possible, but it’s also important to have a long-term plan.

“I think it’s a little bit bad for us not to have one, at the moment it’s all about the short-term goals. We don’t know how it’s going to be after the end of this season.”

Former Premier League striker Gabriel Agbonlahor was less than impressed with the interview and believes Red Devils stars should focus on their football rather than talking to the press.

He told talkSPORT Breakfast: “Scored a goal have we, Fred?

“I just don’t get it. You’ve had an amazing performance against Leeds, you battered Leeds, Fred scored and you have a big game tonight – stop talking!

“Get your head down, get your recovery done the next day, you’re probably flying out to Madrid the day after. Why are these players talking so much? I don’t get it.

“Stop talking about things you don’t need to. If I’m the manager, I’m fuming.

He added: “I just don’t understand. If I’m Rangnick I’m thinking, ‘oh, here we go, another little player is talking’. Just shut up and keep performing on the pitch.”

Manchester United look set for another trophyless campaign – their fourth in a row – but it’s something the club’s superstars are desperate to avoid as they get set to face Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Wednesday night – live on talkSPORT 2.

“Every player that comes to this club wants to win titles,” said Fred, who joined from Shakhtar Donetsk in 2018 – a year after the club’s last trophy.

“It’s the same with me, Bruno [Fernandes], Alex [Telles], Cristiano [Ronaldo], [Jadon] Sancho, all of us. We want trophies but it’s been a long drought.

“With all due respect to Villarreal, it was our job to win that Europa League final and we failed. It’s about having a better football planning on the club.

“If you don’t want to win titles you don’t deserve to play for Manchester United. We’re still in the Champions League but let’s see if we arrive better on next season to find our peak football.”

And when asked if it was crazy to think about the Red Devils winning the Champions League this year, Fred said: “I don’t think so.

“I know we’re not playing our best football, but we have a lot of quality names in our squad. I see many other teams playing far off from their best as well.

“[To win it] wouldn’t be crazy, it could happen, but we have to work our socks off because we’re far away from being one of the favourites in this competition.”

Jungle Cruise: The Rock Says He Has “Never Ever” Worked With Someone Who Made Him Laugh Harder Than Emily Blunt

by Leave a Comment

Jungle Cruise hit theatres and Disney+ last month and sees Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt on an adventure that’s based on the Disneyland attraction of the same name. Not only do Johnson and Blunt have a lot of fun together onscreen, but their real-life chemistry has made for a delightful press tour. In fact, it was recently announced that the dynamic duo would be re-teaming for a movie about Kate Warne, the first woman to become a detective at the Pinkerton Agency. In honor of Johnson’s and Blunt’s fun times, The Rock recently took to Instagram to say he’s never worked with anyone who made him laugh harder. We hope Kevin Hart isn’t too hurt by this news!

“Here’s the gospel ~ I have never EVER worked with any other costar in my life who makes me laugh harder than this one. Man we talk shit and laugh so f’n hard and all future press junkets will forever pale in comparison to ours. But this level of comfort and ease, comes with trust ~ and trust ignites the chemistry and that chemistry is what you guys have loved on screen in JUNGLE CRUISE. We appreciate and love you guys for loving the movie and cheers to takin’ shit, a lot of trust, and laughing hard,” Johnson wrote. You can check out their latest fun video below:

“It’s such a cool dynamic to watch because they’re polarized from each other,” Blunt recently shared with ET Online about her and Johnson’s characters. “They have such different philosophies on life and their sense of humor, like how they walk into every day, it’s just completely the antithesis of one another. So, I think it makes for this really fun interplay between them that’s reminiscent of those Romancing the Stone films … That clash of like two people that are kind of storming into each other’s world.”

While Jungle Cruise‘s critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes ended up being a mediocre 63%, Johnson recently celebrated the Disney film’s audience score, 92%, which is the best of his career. During its opening weekend, Jungle Cruise grossed $90 million worldwide and Johnson teased that a sequel could be in the works. In addition to Johnson and Blunt, Jungle Cruise stars Jack Whitehall, Edgar Ramirez, Jesse Plemons, Veronica Falcón, and Paul Giamatti. The film was helmed by Jaume Collet-Serra who will also be directing Johnson in Black Adam.

Jungle Cruise is now playing in theaters and on Disney+ Premier Access. If you haven’t signed up for Disney+ yet, you can try it out here.

“Running Man” Comedian Yang Se Chan Under Fire For Making A Rude Joke About Actress Jeon So Min During A Game

by Leave a Comment

On its official YouTube channel, SBS‘s Running Man shared a series of short clips from its latest episode in which the members got competitive playing the “Of Course” game (also known as the dangyunhaji game).

Long-time K-Pop and Korean television entertainment fans know that the game itself is centered around “roasting” each other. And so while the remarks involved can get feisty, they are meant to be harmless. However, one of the clips—capturing comedian Yang Se Chan against actress Jeon So Min—ended up receiving heavy criticism from Running Man viewers.

The clip in question, titled, “[Of… Course…] Jeon So Min Shaken By Yang Se Chan’s Attack,” showed Yang Se Chan versus Jeon So Min. The round started off light with the comedian and the actress calling each other “ugly” and making fun.

Yang Se Chan: You know you’re fri-ckin’ ugly. Right?

Jeon So Min: Of course!

Following a few turns back and forth though, Yang Se Chan brought up Jeon So Min’s actual ex-boyfriend and mentioned his occupation (which then became censored by the production team).

Yang Se Chan: About [censored, specific descriptions of Jeon So Min’s ex-boyfriend]… We still keep in touch, you know that. Right?

Jeon So Min: Of course… (Turns to Yoo Jae Suk)

Yang Se Chan: Hyung, I think she’s crying?!

According to some viewers, Jeon So Min’s reaction at this point already showed her “becoming uncomfortable at the mention of her dating history.”

When Jeon So Min managed to make it through that “attack,” Yang Se Chan tried again—asking the actress if she “thinks about [censored ex-boyfriend’s name] while filming kiss scenes” in her ongoing K-Drama Show Window: The Queen’s House. Though Jeon So Min tried to answer, comedian Yoo Jae Suk put an end to the game by declaring that Yang Se Chan had won.

Yang Se Chan: When you’re on set for Show Window and you’re shooting a kiss scene… You thought about [censored ex-boyfriend’s name], huh?

Jeon So Min: Of… Of course! OF COURSE!

Yoo Jae Suk: Are you all right?

Yang Se Chan: C’mon, hyung! Call it a game already!

Yoo Jae Suk: Yang Se Chan wins!

Under the YouTube video, Running Man viewers gathered to call out on Yang Se Chan’s insensitive behavior. One viewer demanded respect for the actress while commenting, “Somin never [attacks] other members this way, yet they do it to her.”

Online communities also commented that he “crossed the line” when he “joked” about her thinking about the ex-boyfriend while in her K-Drama role. Some even deemed this as “sexual harassment” and demanded that Yang Se Chan formally apologizes to Jeon So Min for speaking about her acting career that way.

  • “Honestly WAY over the line… Why does [Yang Se Chan] keep putting his foot in his mouth?”
  • “I get that the cast members are all so incredibly close and comfortable with one another. And I get that Yang Se Chan is considered the more cheeky personality on the team. But I really wish he would stop before crossing any lines. He always makes me feel uncomfortable.”
  • “Geez, that was not nice at all.”
  • “I find it hilarious and hopeless that the production team found this funny and decided to upload an entire clip of it.”
  • “Yang Se Chan most definitely crossed the line with this one. Doesn’t even matter what the production team thinks.”
  • “This makes me see Yang Se Chan in a different light. Is this what he thinks of all actors and their careers? That actors think about making out with their exes while  filming on set? He’s disgusting.”
  • “I don’t watch Running Man and I’m not a Jeon So Min fan but this got me pressed.”

The criticism continues to grow, especially since Jeon So Min has previously dropped hints about this “ex-boyfriend” and how heartbroken he had left her. Between 2015-2016, Jeon So Min was in a romantic relationship with actor Yoon Hyun Min. When, in a previous Running Man episode, the actress revealed that she dumped her ex-boyfriend after he “cheated on [her],” viewers assumed that Jeon So Min and Yoon Hyun Min might have went through a rough breakup.

Neither Yang Se Chan nor Running Man has responded to the online backlash.

Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum Are Hilarious in the Trailer for Their New Movie | Glamour

by Leave a Comment

Sandra Bullock comedies are iconic, and the trailer for her latest, The Lost City, proves she has another hit on her hands.

In the movie, Sandra Bullock plays Loretta Sage, a romance novelist promoting her new book, The Lost City of D. Channing Tatum plays Alan, a model and cover star of Loretta’s books who seems to confuse himself for Sage’s fictional character, Dash. Things don’t seem to be going right for Loretta, but then in comes Daniel Radcliffe as a very rich man in a crisp white three-piece suit. He reads Loretta’s book and wants her to help him find the titular Lost City. Except he’s not asking: He’s kidnapping her and forcing her to help. 

Fortunately, Alan is determined to save Loretta after he finds out she’s gone missing because he wants her to think of him as more than a cover model. Alan finds Loretta and saves her, but unfortunately, they get a bit lost in the jungle. Other shenanigans ensue (and probably a romance as well). In the meantime, Daniel Radcliffe is chasing them down. 

The trailer for The Lost City, which you can watch below, also teases a cameo from Brad Pitt as someone coming to save Loretta. Loretta asks him why he’s so attractive and he says, “My dad was a weatherman.” A perfect answer to that question.

This content can also be viewed on the site it originates from.

“I don’t know if it’s because we’ve all been locked in our homes for so long, but if you can just sit in a room with someone and it’s quiet and just for no reason start laughing, and you know why the other one is laughing but you don’t know why the other one is laughing, it just makes things so much easier,” Bullock told E.W. about working with Tatum. “So yeah, I think we were separated at birth at some point in some sort of neurological experiment on brain development. And he and I feel that theory holds because no matter where you throw us, we’re still the same.”

The Lost City hits theaters March 25, 2022.
