Leeds United’s pressing approach away from home stunned Manchester United, who had to come back from two goals down to salvage a point on Wednesday night. Raphael Varane’s hesitancy with the ball put Bruno Fernandes in a tricky spot, allowing Leeds to win back possession higher up the pitch. Following Pascal Struijk’s challenge on Fernandes,…
Manchester United’s 13-game home winning run came to an end, as the Red Devils shared the spoils with arch-rivals Leeds United. But United’s fightback to earn a 2-2 draw could be the start of Jadon Sancho’s redemption arc. Wilfried Gnonto’s first-minute goal not only stunned the home crowd but also gave the visitors, who travelled…
Manchester United are planning a big summer exodus after a relatively quiet January transfer window. The Red Devils spent much of their time in the transfer market last month exploring loan deals on cheap and ended up acquiring Wout Weghorst from Burnley and Marcel Sabitzer from Bayern Munich for the remainder of the season. Now…
The setting for Marcel Sabitzer’s debut was far from ideal, but that didn’t stop the Austrian from giving the Old Trafford crowd a glimpse of his dynamism. Marcus Rashford’s goal – his 10th since returning from the World Cup – in the 62nd minute doubled the hosts’ lead and put them in a comfortable position.…
Manchester United will certainly feel like they robbed away all three points as their weekend clash against Crystal Palace in the Premier League ended 2-1. This ought not to have been the case. The home side had done the hard work with their opening goal via a penalty with Bruno Fernandes skipping his way into…
Manchester United are on the cusp of seeing their first-ever Austrian signing ply his trade on the field when they face off against Crystal Palace on Saturday. Erik ten Hag has confirmed that Marcel Sabitzer could be part of the matchday squad. As such, many supporters could finally have the answer to just how good…
Manchester United booked their first trip to Wembley since May 2018 following a comfortable 2-0 win against Nottingham Forest in the second leg of the League Cup semi-final. Erik ten Hag didn’t show much desire to experiment with his lineup and fielded a strong starting XI despite going into the tie with a 3-0 aggregate…
John Murtough and Erik ten Hag showed impressive resilience to strengthen Manchester United’s squad mid-season without spending any money on permanent transfers. Cristiano Ronaldo’s abrupt exit, Newcastle United’s decision to recall Martin Dúbravka, and Christian Eriksen’s injury days before the transfer deadline day forced United’s football director to jump into the transfer market to ensure…
Christian Eriksen’s injury has forced Erik ten Hag to explore different avenues to plug the gap in Manchester United’s midfield. Eriksen won’t be available for selection until April after sustaining an ankle injury during the Red Devils’ 3-1 win over Reading in the FA Cup over the weekend. The Dane had featured in all but…
Manchester United are working to complete their second January signing before Tuesday’s transfer deadline. The Red Devils were expected to be quiet in the transfer market heading into the final hours of the window after addressing their attack by signing Wout Weghorst on loan from Burnley early in January. However, Christian Eriksen’s ankle injury has…
Man United appear to be on the cusp of securing an emergency replacement for Christian Eriksen. The injury to the in-form Dane by a reckless tackle by Andy Carroll was arguably the worst thing to emerge from the FA Cup win over Reading earlier this week. The game also targeted United’s lack of squad depth…
The January transfer window has been a quiet one for Manchester United as they remain adamant about not spending too much mid-season. Christian Eriksen suffered an ankle injury against Reading in United’s 3-1 win in the FA Cup. The Dane has been a crucial part of Erik ten Hag’s midfield and his absence could prove…
Erik ten Hag gave a worrying update on the situation of Manchester United star Phil Jones. United are still in three cup competitions as well as in the race for a top-four spot in the Premier League. The Red Devils are more or less guaranteed to progress to the final of the League Cup after…
Kobbie Mainoo’s rise under Erik ten Hag has led to less first-team involvement for another Manchester United talent. Mainoo wasn’t part of the Dutch coach’s 31-man squad for United’s pre-season tour last summer. But such has been his performances with the Under-21 side this season that he has managed to feature for the senior side…
Manchester United have one foot in the final of the League Cup after a convincing 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest in the first-leg semi-final tie at the City Ground. Marcus Rashford maintained his new-found habit of scoring for fun and put the visitors in command of the clash with a sixth-minute opener. The English winger…
Manchester United could find themselves busy in the last days of the January transfer window. The Red Devils, who travel to Nottingham Forest for the first leg of the League Cup tonight, are not only aiming to bounce back from their setbacks at Crystal Palace and Arsenal on the pitch but also working on rejuvenating…
Erik ten Hag’s preferred Manchester United starting XI is starting to take shape, and the last two results have only highlighted the importance of the Dutchman’s key starters. Anthony Martial’s absence against Crystal Palace and Arsenal has seen United drop four points. While without Casemiro, their midfield was cut through with ease by Mikel Arteta’s…
Arsenal came back from behind to seal a statement win over Manchester United at home. Mikel Arteta’s men went behind early, lost their lead at the hour mark, and still managed to keep all three points at the Emirates courtesy of a late Eddie Nketiah goal to prove their title credentials. On the other hand,…
Manchester United travel to north London without Casemiro, as Erik ten Hag’s men look to get back to winning ways by ending Arsenal’s unbeaten run.

Alejandro Garnacho is set to be rewarded with a new contract after establishing himself as an important player in Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United squad. The academy graduate, who was given his senior debut by Ralf Rangnick last season, has pushed his way into Ten Hag’s squad after not having the greatest of starts to…
Wout Weghorst’s signing and Jadon Sancho’s return to training with Manchester United’s first team have improved Erik ten Hag’s options going forward. Sancho, who last played for United in the 1-1 draw at Chelsea in October, started training with his teammates ahead of his side’s trip to south London to face Crystal Palace. Meanwhile, Ten…
The last 10 minutes at Selhurst Park proved to be a nightmare for Manchester United. The Red Devils were in control with a goal lead until the last quarter of the game. Bruno Fernandes’ first-half strike appeared to be enough for the visitors to record their 10th consecutive win in all competitions, as Crystal Palace…
Michael Olise scored a brilliant free-kick in stoppage time to end Manchester United’s winning run. The Red Devils enjoyed a dominant first half in South London and went ahead through Bruno Fernandes’ goal just before the break. However, the visitors lost their grip on the game in the second half after making a number of…
Erik ten Hag’s Luke Shaw experiment is arguably one of the best recent gambits in football. The Englishman has partnered Raphael Varane in the defence as a centre-back, effectively keeping World Cup winner Lisandro Martinez at bay. In doing so, a World Cup-winning centre-back pair is denied to the Old Trafford faithful. Regardless, the unlikely…
Erik ten Hag’s first derby outing was a learning experience, and the second turned out to be a testament to his elite game management. Erling Haaland and Phil Foden had a field day at the Etihad 104 days ago. On Sunday, they came up against a side that – in the words of Bruno Fernandes…
Manchester United got their derby revenge, as the Red Devils came from behind to stun their noisy neighbours. Erik ten Hag’s men allowed Manchester City to enjoy the lion’s share of possession, but kept Erling Haaland and company quiet in the first half. Jack Grealish’s introduction after the break opened the gap for Kevin De…
Manchester United had Erik ten Hag to thank as they secured a convincing 2-1 victory over Manchester City on Saturday. The Old Trafford encounter was nothing like the frankly embarrassing 6-3 meeting at the Etihad earlier in the season which was the Dutchman’s baptism of fire. This time around, the credit goes to the former…
Only the sun shone brighter than Manchester United as the Red Devils stamped rejuvenated authority over their neighbours in a thumping display of excellence. Erik ten Hag’s side secured a 2-1 victory with Jack Grealish’s silencing opener deafened by Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford with their well-crafted team goals. Here’s how the home side fared…
Manchester United’s decision to chase a short-term solution to their attacking issues kept them out of the race for marquee names. Cody Gakpo, who at one point seemed destined to join hands with Erik ten Hag in Manchester, moved to Merseyside instead. Atletico Madrid made Joao Felix available on loan, but their exuberant asking price…
Manchester United are on a winning streak of eight straight matches in all competitions, and are favourites going into the Manchester derby tomorrow. That was certainly not the case the last time the Red Devils were scheduled to face their neighbours. United were sixth on the table after losing two of their opening six league…
Manchester United are signing Wout Weghorst on loan from Burnley. But they could lose one of their forwards to an English side before the end of the winter window. United, Weghorst’s parent club Burnley, and Besiktas, where he spent the first half of the season on loan, have reached an agreement that will see the…
Manchester United are set to seal their second loan signing of the January window. Jack Butland arrived at Old Trafford from Crystal Palace last week. The Englishman has joined Erik ten Hag’s squad on loan until the end of the 2022/23 season after Newcastle United recalled Martin Dubravka from his loan spell. Butland isn’t going…
Manchester United delivered a no-nonsense performance to move past Charlton Athletic and into the League Cup’s semi-finals.

Manchester United’s search for a striker that started midway through the season following Cristiano Ronaldo’s abrupt exit is approaching a conclusive stage.

Manchester United’s search for a short-term fix in the final third has led them to Turkey, where Wout Weghorst is enjoying a fine season with Besiktas. The hierarchy at Old Trafford have been adamant about not spending too much to address their attack mid-season. No permanent options are being assessed, even at low-cost, as per…
Manchester United maintained their fine form and beat Everton in the FA Cup to register their seventh straight win in all competitions.

Marcus Rashford found the back of the net once again as Manchester United beat Everton 3-1 to progress to the fourth round of the FA Cup. Ten Hag’s decision to field a full-strength side in the third round of the competition paid dividends very early. Casemiro and Anthony Martial combined in the middle of the…
Manchester United are set to make their first January signing of the Erik ten Hag era following the departure of Martin Dubravka. Newcastle United’s decision to recall the Slovak goalkeeper, who only appeared twice for the Red Devils, left Erik ten Hag’s side short of options in the goalkeeping department. Tom Heaton who is viewed…
Man United are in talks to find a new goalkeeper following Martin Dubravka’s departure. Dubravka moved to Old Trafford on loan from Newcastle United last summer. He never managed to truly impress Erik ten Hag, who only handed the Slovak just two League Cup appearances. Against Burnley, his dodgy clearance presented the visitors with a…
Manchester United start the new year in the best way possible, beating Bournemouth 3-0 in the Premier League at a rainy Old Trafford. Casemiro’s goal from Christian Eriksen’s free-kick put United in command early in the game, and second-half well-worked goals from Luke Shaw and Marcus Rashford ensured a comfortable ending to the game for…
Erik ten Hag continues to produce results with limited options going forward at Manchester United, who are not prepared to spend big in January. United have won two straight Premier League games after Christmas to get into the top four. The Reds are also in the last eight of the League Cup after a convincing…
Casemiro is enjoying life in Manchester United, having transformed the Reds’ defensive record with his experience in the middle of the park. The Brazilian took a surprise decision to leave defending Champions League winners Real Madrid for Europa League football in England’s north-west. As such, many believed Casemiro joined United for a final payday. However,…
Man Utd have completed a transfer on the first day of the January window. But it’s not going to strengthen Erik ten Hag’s squad. The former Ajax manager oversaw a big overhaul at Carrington in his early days at United, as six new players came through the doors at Carrington in the summer transfer window.…
Wolves made the Red Devils work for all three points in Julen Lopetegui’s first home Premier League game. A scratchy first-half performance from both sides forced both Lopetegui and Erik ten Hag to look at their respective benches during the break to find some joy going forward. The latter’s substitution worked wonders, as Marcus Rashford…
Manchester United produced a commanding performance against Nottingham Forest to register their biggest Premier League win of the Erik ten Hag era. The Red Devils were on the front foot from the very first whistle, with Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial both netting inside 23 minutes. Antony missed a great chance to add another goal…
Marcus Rashford has enjoyed a huge upturn in form under Erik ten Hag, who is now determined to extend the England international’s stay at Manchester United. Rashford lost his starting place to Anthony Elanga and Jadon Sancho under interim United manager Ralf Rangnick during the 2021-22 campaign. He only managed five goals in all competitions…
Atletico Madrid are ready to allow Joao Felix’s transfer to a Premier League club in January.

Signed for a club-record fee of €126million following the departure of…
Casemiro enjoyed a comfortable evening in the middle of the defence – an unfamiliar position for the Brazilian – in Manchester United’s win over Burnley.

The Reds returned to Old Trafford and registered a 2-0 win over Burnley to go through to the quarter-finals of the League cup.

Lisandro Martinez has had an incredible 2022 both on and off the pitch. Martinez, 24, established himself as Erik ten Hag’s most important player at the back in Amsterdam.
