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.

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?
