The latest gossip and rumours from the newspapers and online:

Manchester United's WAYNE ROONEY is ready to see out his contract as a squad player after being dropped by manager Jose Mourinho, and has no intention of acting on interest from MLS, according to the Daily Mirror.

The Daily Telegraph claims Chelsea manager ANTONIO CONTE turned the heat on his "spineless" Chelsea players at half-time of Saturday's defeat at Arsenal.

Manchester United's treatment of BASTIAN SCHWEINSTEIGER is "not right for a player of his stature", says his former Germany colleague Lukas Podolski, reports the Daily Mail.

The Sun says Swansea's American owners want BOB BRADLEY to be considered as the next manager, but that former Manchester United winger Ryan Giggs remains first choice.
