Manchester United have reportedly added Luis Enrique to their manager shortlist alongside Mauricio Pochettino and Erik ten Hag.The Spain head coach is believed to have the 'technical credentials' and 'winning track record' that the Red Devils are looking for in their next boss, as per ESPN.And he is the candidate which Cristiano Ronaldo was said to have put forward to replace Ole Gunnar Solskjaer last year.However, Enrique, 51, is now in a World Cup year for his country, so United would have a big job on their hands to convince him to leave before the tournament kicks off in November.The other two men under serious consideration, Pochettino and Ten Hag, look much more likely to move than him. Several United players want the former Tottenham and current PSG manager, it's been claimed.Pochettino has not lit up Paris and has made it clear he'd be open to a Premier League return.Ten Hag, meanwhile, has had his future shrouded in doubt following the resignation of Ajax chief Marc Overmars.Who best suits the position? Let us know in the comments section.Enrique does have a more glittering managerial CV than that pair, though.He won two La Liga titles and a Champions League while in charge of Barcelona, and completed the treble with Copa del Rey success in the 2014/15 season.

Beijing Winter Olympics - and caught the whole thing on his helmet camera providing frightening results.The 28-year-old raced in a semi-final that included Canada's Eliot Grondin, Austria's Alessandro Hammerle and Merlin Surget of France - but finished last to miss out on a medal race.Later competing in the small final to determine his ranking among the unsuccessful competitors, Eguibar went up against American Jake Vedder and Tommaso Leoni of Italy as well as Surget again.Wearing a helmet camera in a bid to show those at home what it looks like for the riders, the footage had a different effect after he crashed.With Surget leading and Vedder taking a wide line coming up to a jump, Leoni slipped onto his back directly in front of the unfortunate Eguibar.With his camera still live on the broadcast, the 28-year-old couldn't avoid making contact with his fallen rival before bouncing off the back of Vedder.With the US rider somehow staying upright to chase down Surget, Eguibar did a full 180 before continuing the race to finish in third.Is snowboard cross the best event at the Winter Olympics?

lunch has been 'ruined' after his supermarket's own-brand sandwich was missing one vital and advertised ingredient.Colin McKenzie, a taxi driver in Edinburgh, took to Twitter to vent his frustration that his Tesco smoked ham and cheddar sandwich was actually just a smoked ham sandwich as it was lacking in cheese.He wrote, on social media; “Hey @Tesco, where's the cheddar?”His cheese-off tweet ended with a crying face emoji.Tesco did reply to the customer online, writing: “I’m really sorry this has happened.“Can you please DM us your full name, address & email along with pics of the packaging.“The bar code, date code and the supplier code (this is on the rear usually after the address) and a picture of the receipt please.“Thanks, Stuart.”But as one user questioned what he was supposed to do if he no longer had the receipt – a question the supermarket has yet to answer.According to Tesco's own website, the sandwich is supposed to comprise of slices of Beechwood smoked ham with mature cheddar and mayonnaise, and is made using a mixture of British and EU pork.However, some users on Twitter saw the funny side of the issue.Jsem Ozymandia tweeted: “You need to pay extra for the cheddar, you just bought the idea of it.”And another user posted: “FFS @Tesco, taking the p**s here”.The Daily Star has contacted Tesco for a comment.The supermarket chain is currently investigating the incident and has made contact with the customer.For more of the latest news from Daily Star, make sure you sign up for one of our newsletters here.

Liverpool have been dealt a bonus blow after Xherdan Shaqiri completed his transfer from Lyon to Chicago Fire.The Swiss star only joined the Ligue 1 outfit last summer as he brought an end to a three-year stint on Merseyside.However, after less than six months, the 30-year-old has found himself on the move again, this time heading to the MLS with Chicago Fire in a club-record £5.9million deal.Remarkably, that figure is more than the French club paid for his services back in August.While Lyon will undoubtedly be delighted at having made a profit on the winger, his former club Liverpool have been left significantly out of pocket following his latest transfer.The Ligue 1 side purchased Shaqiri for a fee in the region of £5m last summer as the Reds agreed for a significant chunk of the transfer to be made up of bonuses.The structure of the deal means Lyon paid out an initial €6m with another €5m - close to 50% of the initial fee - potentially on top, based on performance-related add-ons.While it remains to be seen what those bonuses entailed, the fact the attacker made a mere 16 appearances for the French side, only scoring twice and assisting on three occasions, suggests Liverpool are likely to miss out on any additional windfall.Will Xherdan Shaqiri be a success in the MLS with Chicago Fire? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section...The news will come as a blow to the Reds who clearly expected Shaqiri to succeed with Lyon given the strange structure of the deal.In reality, the Swiss international has struggled to assert himself as a first-team regular in Peter Bosz's side and has cut his losses less than a year into his three-year contract.The developments come months after Liverpool were reportedly willing to

Thierry Frémaux I met Bertrand Tavernier in Lyon in 1982 at the Chateau Lumiere when he came to announce that he was going to become the first president of the Institut Lumière.He had just come off “Coup de Torchon” and his prestige was at its peak. As I was working for Positif magazine, I took the opportunity to question Bertrand about his love for films and his long relationship with the magazine.

Peter Debruge Chief Film CriticAs a critic committed to maintaining a certain professional distance with those whose work I might review, I don’t often play the fan in the presence of filmmakers. But with French director Bertrand Tavernier — who passed away at the age of 79 on Thursday — I made an exception.Knowing that Tavernier would be attending the Cannes Film Festival, as always, I once stuffed my suitcase with his “50 Years of American Cinema” — a two-volume, 1,247-page encyclopedia of classic film history — then lugged it to his hotel so that this éminence grise might sign it.

Martin Scorsese once said. "That's it.

The last time I saw Bertrand Tavernier, who died yesterday in Paris at 79, was at the Cannes Film Festival nearly two years ago after the world premiere of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. It was after 1 a.m. and my son Nick and I, who had been elated by the film, were walking down a largely empty Rue d’Antibes when I saw Bertrand’s unmistakable bulky frame approaching us. He was with his wife Sarah and I had seen them just a few evenings before in Paris at a gathering of friends of the late Pierre Rissient, cinema champion extraordinaire, who had worked with Bertrand championing films in the 1960s.
