'Should be over' - Manchester United fans share Mauricio Pochettino verdict after PSG defeat

Supporters have declared the race to become the next Manchester United manager over after watching Mauricio Pochettino and his star-studded Paris Saint-Germain team humbled by Monaco.

Despite appearing to be on a procession to the Ligue 1 title, the Parisians - including Kylian Mbappe - were beaten 3-0 against their seventh-placed opponents on Sunday afternoon. Neymar Jnr also featured, but there was no spot in the PSG line-up for seven-time Ballon d'Or winner Lionel Messi.

In his absence, goals from Wissam Ben Yedder (2) and Kevin Volland did the damage. Even after that eye-catching result, though, Pochettino and his men remain 15 points clear at the summit.
