Waching daily Oct 2 2018

 That is the view of Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher. Mourinho has come under mounting pressure at Manchester United and even more questions were asked after his side slumped to a surprise 3-1 defeat away to West Ham on Saturday

 The loss marked United's worst start to a league campaign in 29 years. While the Glazers appear to be reluctant to pull the trigger yet, there have been reports that Mourinho could be sacked sooner rather than later if results don't improve

 After their Champions League clash at home to Valencia tonight (8pm), United face a challenging run of fixtures that includes trips to face Chelsea and Manchester City

 And Carragher thinks these two fixtures could go someway to determining whether Mourinho stays at Old Trafford

 When asked about Mourinho's future, Carragher said on Sky Sports' Monday Night Football: "Manchester United have not had a tough start on paper

 "They have only played Spurs at home out of the top six. But when we come back from the international break, starting with Chelsea and finishing with Manchester City, that's why you brought Jose Mourinho to your club, to win big games

 "I think at the end of those run of fixtures, if they have bad results away at Chelsea and away at Manchester City, I think we will be a lot clearer about what could happen going forward

 "Because it is all very well saying that you can't get rid of the manager and who comes in, all these things, I have been at clubs myself where sometimes it gets that untenable and there is so much friction in the squad that something has to happen

 "Unfortunately, and it sickens me to say it about players downing tools because I hate that, but it is always the manager who carries the can for that

 "That is what Jose Mourinho is paid big bucks for - to manage that squad. "And at the moment, he is not managing that squad

" Ian Wright, meanwhile, feels the constant negativity surrounding Mourinho is dragging United down

 He said: "It seems to be on a daily basis. [Mourinho] talks about some players caring more than others, but doesn't name them - why mention that? "Maybe he's trying to take the focus off the fact this is the biggest challenge of his career, to try to turn this around

 "This is embarrassing for Manchester United. What are the boardroom doing? How long is it going to carry on?"

Inglis suspended for two games by NRL - Blog news - Duration: 5:22.

UPDATE: Greg Inglis will miss Australia's upcoming Test matches against New Zealand and Tonga, after he was issued a two-match ban by the NRL

While Inglis will not be stripped of the captaincy, he will be forced to sit out the upcoming games after he was charged with drink driving and speeding yesterday

Original story follows Facebook Twitter Whatsapp Reddit Email Share Greg Inglis has apologised after being charged with drink driving but remains hopeful that he can keep the Kangaroos captaincy

An apologetic Greg Inglis says he will leave it to coach Mal Meninga and the NRL to decide whether he will remain Australian rugby league team captain after being charged with drink driving and speeding

On Monday, Inglis was named Kangaroos skipper by Meninga just hours before he was pulled over by police after being clocked speeding and returning a positive blood alcohol test

Inglis did not resign or quit the Australian team when he fronted media on Tuesday, as had been speculated by some, saying he hoped to hold on to his captaincy post but would accept any decision taken by those in charge

The NRL were on Tuesday morning going over the case and at this stage no announcement has been made on whether any action is taken against the South Sydney star

However, Australian selector Laurie Daley has already suggested Inglis relinquish the position, after he was charged with mid-range drink driving in Lithgow on Monday

"Greg's been a terrific leader for South Sydney and Queensland but I don't think you can have the Australian captain going DUI

""I'm pretty sure Greg and Mal (coach Mal Meninga) will come to the decision that he needs to step down as captain of his country

"Inglis was returning from appearing in the Koori Knockout rugby league tournament in Dubbo when pulled over after being clocked speeding on Monday afternoon and returned a positive blood alcohol test

The Queensland and South Sydney captain was then taken to a local police station where he allegedly returned a reading of 0

085.Daley said the affair would likely spell the end of Inglis's tenure as Kangaroos captain before it had even begun

"He's let himself down.He's let the game down … and he'll pay a massive price for that," the chief national selector said

Should Inglis lose the captaincy, vice-captain Boyd Cordner is tipped to be promoted to the job just days after leading the Sydney Roosters to NRL premiership glory

However, Papalii was originally named in the squad three-and-a-half months after the incident, and did not lose his position until after his plea in court

Crucially, Inglis's date in court won't arrive until after this month's Tests against New Zealand and Tonga in Auckland

Jesse Bromwich lost the Kiwi captaincy when he and Kevin Proctor lost their places in New Zealand's World Cup squad after a night out in Canberra following a Test loss that resulted in no charges

Queensland Origin coach Kevin Walters admitted it was disappointing Inglis found himself in the situation

"I feel for Greg but also understand there is a responsibility that goes with being Australian captain and what needs to be upheld," he said "Mal has spoken quite openly about what his expectations are around the team environment, particularly from his senior players

"I expect that they'll make a decision this morning on it."Advertisement Advertisement Inglis had his licence suspended and is scheduled to appear in Lithgow Local Court on November 22
