Sokratis Papastathopoulos has looked hardly reliable since the conclusion of last season. Rob Holding hasn’t exactly been the same since returning from his ACL injury, making things worse. New arrival David Luiz has looked…
Daniel James has been a superb signing for Manchester United so far this season.

Manchester United’s historically youthful side failed to excel away at Astana, with the Kazakhstan champions securing a 2-1 victory courtesy of a goal from Dmitriy Shomko and an unfortunate own-goal from debutant Di’Shon Bernard, which canceled out Jesse Lingard’s impressive early strike. It was a game of many firsts on either end of the spectrum…

Manchester United have sorely missed the services of Paul Pogba.

Those fears…
