Schweinsteiger: I am ready whenever Mourinho needs me

Bastian Schweinsteiger has told Jose Mourinho that he is ready to give his all for the team whenever the Manchester United manager needs him.
The former Germany international has yet to feature in a competitive game this season after being deemed surplus to requirements by Mourinho at the start of the campaign.
He was recently welcomed back to first-team training, though, and is desperate to start playing games again.
"I am trying to keep myself fit for the situation in which I am needed," Schweinsteiger was quoted as saying by Eurosport.
"Hopefully I will be given a chance. I look forward to training every day and being able to train with the team. I do not know if I will get a chance but I hope so. If I am needed, I will give everything - I am ready.
"I still feel fit at 32 and certainly want to play more years at the top level and, of course, I want to win things. We won the FA Cup last year and that was also one of my aims. Of course it would be great to play for United in the Premier League and perhaps win it.
"I am not one to think of burying my head in the sand. I have always been a positive person and still am now. My rhythm is good - of course, it is different when you play each weekend compared with when you are only training, but I enjoy my football."

Ms Corbett’s suicide had left Miss Howarth devastated as the pair had been best friends since they were toddlers. The inquest heard that two days before Miss Howarth’s death, her fiancée saw her writing down words from a TV signal that was tuning in and out, believing it be a message from her friend. Coro...

Frank Lampard to be offered Chelsea post if he retires from playing

Chelsea will offer Frank Lampard a role back at Stamford Bridge if the former England midfielder decides his playing days are over after announcing his intention to leave New York City in December at the end of his contract. Lampard took to social media on Monday to confirm his time at the Major League Soccer club had come to an end after 15 goals in 31 appearances, culminating in defeat by Toronto in the play-offs this month, with confirmation of his next move to follow “very soon”. The 38-year-old, who won 106 England caps, is to decide whether to move into punditry or coaching, a career choice for which he has previously expressed enthusiasm, but will field interest from Chelsea whichever path he chooses to take. The Premier League club will offer their record goalscorer either an ambassadorial role or a position on the coaching staff, depending upon his ambitions, as they seek to retain close links with their most successful generation of players. There is a desire within the cl...
