"Hopefully there are still things for us to exploit".

"I pushed him because he was in my technical area", Hughes said.

"I'm not sure why he didn't want to shake my hand".

"I think it was all directed behind my back from January".

Think you can do better than Lawro?

And with two minutes remaining until the break, United conceded their first Premier League goal of the season when Darren Fletcher played a fine pass out to Mame Biram Diouf on the right and his cross was thumped home by Choupo-Moting from six yards.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger talked to assembled media on Friday morning ahead of the Gunners Premier League clash against Bournemouth.

The Belgium worldwide has enjoyed an impressive start to his United career since his reported £75million move from Everton, scoring three times in three Premier League appearances to help his side to nine points. Having bagged 65 goals in 102 games for Liverpool, the reported £50 million BBC Sport say Chelsea paid for his services in 2011 might have raised a few eyebrows due to the size of the fee, but its sense as a football decision could hardly be questioned.

"In my view, it is not good when footballers play for one club when the league starts and another club when the transfer window closes".

Saido Berahino has not scored in the Premier League for more than 30 hours since his goal for West Brom against Crystal Palace on 27 February 2016.

In a short statement, the league said: "Premier League clubs have today agreed to a rule amendment that will see the summer transfer window in any year end at 17:00 on the Thursday before the start of the season".

Perhaps due to the worldwide break disrupting their rhythm, the Manchester United defence did not look as solid as it had in the first three games of the league season. Chelsea did so in 2004-05, 2005-06 and 2014-15.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan has five assists in the opening three Premier League games, equalling the record set by Ruel Fox in 1994-95.

It was nearly a surprise when Lukaku didn't score in United's previous game - especially considering he took a penalty in that encounter against Leicester City.
