Manchester United have sacked Jose Mourinho barely three-years in charge at the Theatre of Dreams.

The 55-year-old was appointed manager after he resigned at Chelsea in the 2016-17 season and has won three trophies.

The Portuguese gaffer won three trophies since his arrival at the Manchester club including the EFL Cup, the Community Shield and the Europa League.

But his current campaign at the Old Trafford has been disastrous managing just seven wins in 17 matches including five losses and five draws.

Mourinho's men have not been able to get maximum off top sides in the Premier League this season - playing draws with Chelsea and Arsenal.

And suffered losses to city rivals Manchester City, Tottenham and recently Liverpool.

The French midfielder was dropped to the substitute bench by the Portuguese boss since Man United's 2-2 draw at Southampton, where he allegedly called Pogba a virus in the team.

Mourinho also had issues with United chief Ed Woodward for not signing a center-back to solve his defensive problems and refusing him to sell Anthony Martial after United's tour of the United States.

It is understood that 90 per cent of the entire squad and backroom staffs have lost faith in the charismatic manager who has impeccable record in management.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng had earlier reported that Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has insisted he has the full-backing of his players, claiming they were not dishonest with their efforts at Anfield.

United were condemned to their fifth defeat of the season following a 3-1 loss to their Premier League rivals.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism.

The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
