UK Back Pages: Manchester United Ridiculed, Wilfried Bony Nears City Move

Manchester United are thrown back into the spotlight after a middling performance saw them fall at Old Trafford to Southampton, 1-0. 

Not only did they fail to register a shot on goal, but new man Radamel Falcao was left off the squad entirely, despite a clean bill of health. The move has thrown into doubt his future and whether or not the club will purchase him after his loan from Monaco is up. 

Elsewhere, there's Arsenal smoking jokes, and Wilfried Bony nears a lucrative switch from Swansea City to Manchester City. 

Mirror Sport highlight the Colombian Falcao's absence and Wojciech Szczesny's spot on the bench after revelations of his shower-smoking incident:
