Tuanzebe may require an Under-23s outing before he gets into the side again but both are providing options to the boss in advance of the Europa League last-32 tie against Club Brugge, with the scoreline at 1-1 after the first leg in Belgium.
In this interview with our lead MUTV commentator Stewart Gardner, Ole discusses the physical growth of both players and also explains how he is still pushing Anthony Martial to get better...First of all Ole, is it nice to have a lot of players to choose from because from what we saw there were 27 out there at training?
"Yeah, we have a big, strong squad and everyone is like eager or you could call it desperate to be part of this team. Odion coming in, Bruno coming in, Scotty back fit, Timothy and Axel back training with us, the squad becomes bigger and the competition becomes harder with more demands when you’re on the pitch."

Scott came off the bench at the weekend – is he ready for more minutes?
"He’s ready for more minutes than the 10-15 he got the other day. He’s training really hard and has come back, if possible, more motivated and ready for the last part of the season."Scott and Axel are looking massive, physically bigger – has that been something they’ve been working on when they were out injured?
"Well, when you’re injured, you can’t be out on the pitch running around so you do different things and programmes. You’ve got to be positive and say where can I make the difference for me now? What can make me a better player? If I can’t be on the pitch running, what can I do? They have both been building up and ready and physically fit, as you say, because it’s a strong part of their game. They’ve got to be good one on one, making challenges and winning challenges and, yes, they are looking strong."There were changes in Brugge and a fresh performance against Watford. We’re playing on Sunday again so what will the approach be?
"Win it. Win the game. That’s all that matters. It’s a knock-out competition and we’ve got to find a team that is going to create enough chances, to score goals and win games. And a team that is not going to concede chances. We want to look like a strong, energetic, aggressive Manchester United team."
Hopefully, it will be Thursday-Sunday for the rest of the season but somehow it always feels different to Wednesday-Saturday…
"It is different. Sunday games and Thursday night is a different pattern to the week. You don’t have Saturday night at home with the family, you have them at a hotel, for example. But we want these games. We’ve got a strong squad and now it’s up to me to rotate and, when the players get chances, for them to be ready when they get them. I just want the rhythm of playing games and them getting match fit."Nobody has scored at Old Trafford in the Europa League this season and we’ve kept five out of six clean sheets [in all competitions] so how much confidence do you have?
"It’s a foundation to build performances from. If you concede goals, you need to score more goals and we’ve got many individuals at the back playing really well. The keepers, the full-backs, centre-backs and as a unit, we’re getting more solid and more compact. When I’m on the touchline, I’m stood watching and not confident until the game is gone and then, clean sheet, and a pat on the back. Concentration and focus. That is what it’s about – in both boxes."

tonight's match programme, Eric recalls the camaraderie that propelled the Reds to glory in Stockholm in 2017.The 25-year-old centre-back has recently returned from a 10-month injury lay-off and is ready to help the Reds bid for a place in the last 16 of this season’s competition.
Speaking in United Review, the official match programme for tonight’s second leg against Club Brugge, Bailly says he’s already seeing signs of the togetherness which propelled the squad to glory in Stockholm three years ago.
“You always have great memories whenever you lift a trophy,” Bailly told us. “You remember the effort, how you’ve all pulled together and worked hard, together as a group. But lifting that trophy is the magical thing you remember.
“We’re in it again, this time with a younger squad that has lots and lots of talent, and I think there’s a real energy about the place that could help us to continue to progress through the tournament.”Unfortunately, the Ivorian was suspended for our 2-0 final win over Ajax at the Friends Arena in May 2017, having been sent off in the semi-final second leg against Celta Vigo.
However, Bailly was able to put aside the setback of missing out on a European final by supporting his team-mates from the sidelines and ultimately sharing in the glory as we completed the full set of major trophies won in our history.“Obviously that [my suspension] was disappointing, but if anything it goes to show how much we all wanted to win in that semi-final,” Bailly continues. “You do what you can to try to help the team.
“It didn’t work out for me but I was showing my commitment to help the team, and sometimes you want to give so much for the team that you can forget yourself.
“Although I wasn’t in the team in the final, we had good enough players to step in and fortunately I was on the pitch at the end to enjoy sharing that moment.
“We had all won together because we’d all contributed throughout the campaign.”United are in a strong position going into the game against Club Brugge at Old Trafford, having secured a 1-1 draw in Belgium seven days ago, with Bailly watching on from the bench at the Jan Breydel Stadium.
Eric thinks that if we get through tonight, there should be no reason why we can’t go the distance in the competition, even considering the potential presence of Premier League sides Arsenal and Wolves, as well as former winners Internazionale and Sevilla, in the last

years on, ManUtd.com's Joe Ganley recalls the pivotal 2006 League Cup final triumph over Wigan Athletic.The match at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff - played on this day in 2006 - was straightforward enough, decided inside an hour by goals from Wayne Rooney (2), Louis Saha and Cristiano Ronaldo.
 
Paul Jewell’s plucky Latics were unsettled just 14 minutes into the contest when goalkeeper Mike Pollitt – a former United apprentice – was forced off with a hamstring issue. But, in truth, the Reds had been rampantly peppering Pollitt’s goal from the word go. 
 
The celebrations afterwards were modest, and largely memorable for the ‘Thank You Smudge’ t-shirts that the United players donned after full-time, in honour of their colleague Alan Smith, who had recently broken his leg during a match against Liverpool at Anfield. But beneath the business-like smiles and picture poses, an important staging post was being passed by a team that was still in its adolescence.
 
The Reds had not won the league title – a competition Sir Alex was fond of referring to as “our bread and butter” – since 2003, while United’s last Champions League final was four years further back.
 
The dressing room’s cultural commandant Roy Keane had left earlier in the season, while Paul Scholes was sidelined with an eye problem.
 
In midfield, Ryan Giggs and John O’Shea were Ferguson’s preferred pairing, while legendary goalscorer Ruud van Nistelrooy was on his way towards the M16 exit, having been benched in favour of Louis Saha. In short, United seemed nowhere near winning the Premier League. Or seizing the European Cup. Or being crowned world champions.
 
They would achieve all three before the end of 2008.
 
For the side that would become known to fans as ‘the Rooney-Ronaldo team' – or variants thereof – it was a first major trophy. A first whiff of silverware. And time would quickly prove this first taste of glory highly influential.
 
Rooney’s two goals earned him the Man-of-the-Match award, and his delight at winning his first trophy in professional football was clear. Ronaldo had won the 2004 FA Cup, but was yet to emerge as the world-conquering talent that would later dominate European football.
 Patrice Evra and Nemanja Vidic, who came on for the final minutes, had not even established themselves as starters at their new club, but the manager was desperate for them to experience a triumph as early as possible.Few supporters saw it coming, at the time – one infamous article in The Guardian claimed Sir Alex was ‘shredding his legacy at every turn’ – but everything was about to come together.
 
The club made just one signing the following summer, acquiring Michael Carrick from Tottenham Hotspur.
 
In that same Guardian piece, the writer claimed ‘almost everything about the club reeks of disarray’, and dismissed Carrick’s transfer as ‘a band aid for a bullet wound’.
 
Sir Alex’s team took 34 Premier League points from the first 39 available at the start of the next season, as Scholes and Carrick began to find their midfield rhythm, Rooney and Ronaldo soared to new heights, and Vidic and Ferdinand developed an iron-fisted partnership in central defence.
 
An incredible era ensued, in what seemed like the blink of an eye.";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:6:"images";a:1:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:6:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:109:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/11/211/774962/56871528MU069_ManUtd_Wigan1565252964202_xlarge.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:6:"2.35:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:1;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:108:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/11/211/774962/56871528MU069_ManUtd_Wigan1565252962258_large.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"16:9";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:2;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:108:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/11/211/774962/56871528MU069_ManUtd_Wigan1565252962696_thumb.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"1:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:3;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:111:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/11/211/774962/56871528MU069_ManUtd_Wigan-11565252962727_medium.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"4:3";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:4;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:108:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/11/211/774962/56871528MU069_ManUtd_Wigan1565252963208_small.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"3:4";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:5;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:113:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/11/211/774962/56871528MU069_ManUtd_Wigan-11565252964711_portrait.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"6:16";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}}}}}}s:3:"top";a:2:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:3:{s:7:"content";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:4:{s:3:"url";s:66:"'img:ImageCropUrl(800,

boss answered questions on our squad, his birthday and Krepin Diatta.The boss, on the occasion of his 47th birthday, sat down in front of the media to provide an update on his squad and discuss the importance of this European competition this season. He also spoke in detail about Bruno Fernandes, Luke Shaw and our defensive improvement this campaign.

Here, you can read a full transcript of the manager’s media briefing at the Aon Training Complex…

Ole, you look like you have pretty much a full-strength squad, so was there anyone out there who won’t be available for tomorrow?
“We had a couple of knocks in training but hopefully they’ll be ok. But, we’ve got a strong and fit 25-man squad and it was a good session. We’re looking stronger.”

How are Tim Fosu-Mensah and Axel Tuanzebe recovering?
“They are getting close to a Reserve match or a behind-closed-doors match. We need them to play in that kind of game before we use them in the first team.”You’ve got two routes to get into the Champions League next season. The way your side set up over a two-legged tie, is this the best way of getting into the Champions League?
“I think we need to just take one game at a time. Of course, both are possible, but in a cup competition you never know. It might be a bad day, you meet someone. We take one game at a time and hopefully take as many points in the league. As I said, in the cup you can’t predict. You can’t rely on ‘we’ll this’. They’re a good teams in it - Brugge, we’ve got to get past these - and we’re looking forward to the game.”

With the luck you’ve had with injuries this year, is it good to have more options? People like Luke have had to adapt to a new defensive system…
“I think the squad has coped really well with the amount of games. I’ve said it many times before, the attitude, character and personality of them is improving. Especially, December and January were two tough months. Now we’re getting some freshness back and I think we’re looking shaper for it. Luke was out for two months and he’s done really well in a new position. It’s mixing between left-back and the left side of centre-back… He runs forward more as a left centre-back than as a full-back. I’ve been very pleased with him there.”Happy birthday, Ole. How will you celebrate and what’s your dream gift?
“My youngest is training in the Academy tonight, so I’ll spend a few hours watching him and there are some Champions League games, and preparing for tomorrow.”

With Anthony Martial scoring, Scott McTominay coming back and Bruno Fernandes playing well, this looks like a completely different team from a few months ago…
“Well, we feel we’ve added some X factor and quality with Bruno. I think Anthony coming back - he was out for a couple of months as well - getting used to the no.9 positions and the demands that means. Scotty has also developed and I think Nemanja has done brilliantly when he’s been away. Fred, as well. The addition of Bruno gives us that little bit of a different flavour. He’s a player who likes to play penetrative passes, forward passes. He likes to task risks, which a Man United player should do.”

With Bruno, the build-up before him was slow because players seemed to get the ball and were not be sure what to do. He seems to know what he’s going to do before he gets it…
“I think his imagination, or his overview, his picture, is a couple of seconds ahead of other players. That’s one of his strengths: knowing what he wants to do when he gets it. He also can change his mind in a split second. If that picture doesn’t work as he thought, he’ll change it. I think that composure has been important for us as well.”What’s the ideal personality of your Manchester United team, is it to play with swagger and a bit of charisma?
“You need many attributes to play the perfect game of football, or to be the perfect team. We want the swagger and the confidence. We want players going onto the pitch believing in themselves. You still want your players to be humble, knowing that you’ve got to work harder and you’ve got to earn the right to win a game of football. I think that was one of strengths - I played with Becks, Giggsy, the graveyard shifts down the sides, that was one of the big compliments the gaffer used to give from other managers: ‘You’ve got a team full of quality but they work harder than others’. That was probably one of the first things I said when I came here, that I want my teams to be one of the hardest-working teams in the league. That’s only attitude, that’s what you’re supposed to do.”

Is personality something you can bring out of players?
“You can blossom more with confidence and speaking to them and managing them and making them be free. You want them to be free and play with courage and bravery. You want to have a bit of fear in you and that taste of ‘well I don’t want to lose this game’. There’s a bit of that edge but you still think ‘ok, I made a mistake, no worries, I’ll sort it out’. So, it’s a fine balance between arrogant, confident and humble. It’s difficult to say it all here in two minutes. We could have two or three hours on that.”

When you mention Bruno and you talk about X factor, is that what we say on Sunday? Will we see that now until the end of the season?
“I think he’ll only improve by coming here to a stronger league, with stronger opponents and stronger team-mates getting used to him. He’s got that bit of X factor and that swagger and quality that we want to develop even more. He’s come in and impressed everyone, but we don’t want to put any limit on what he can do.”You spoke about Diatta from your time in Molde, so what is it you liked him? He hopes to have a career like Sadio Mane as well, so is that possible?
“I think he should have high hopes and high ambitions for his career. I saw him when he was 17 or 18. He was actually at Molde before I came to Molde. Someone turned him down, I don’t know who, but that was before I came there. He was fantastic. You know when you see players with that quality and he feels free on the pitch, he tries things and he’s got the ‘X Factor’. He’s got fantastic pace and balance; he’s similar to Sadio Mane, so I think that’s a fair ambition he should have.”

At a club like United there’s always a lot of talk about finances and there was an investors call with Ed Woodward yesterday. Are you conscious, not only in football terms, of being in the Champions League for the financial benefits?
“Well, as you said, we’re a big club and we had good finances. But the longer you’re out of it, the more you’ll suffer. It’s an ambition for us to get back into the Champions League for too ball reasons but also financially that will help the club. As Luke says, we’ve just to focus on this game and then it’s the league on Sunday, then the FA Cup on Thursday and then the league again, the hopefully more European games.”

signing has provided an extra dimension to our attack in recent weeks.The Portuguese midfielder has enjoyed an excellent start to his career at Old Trafford and Ole believes he is already showing all the attributes he expects from a United player.
“We feel we’ve added some X factor and quality with Bruno,” Solskjaer said at his pre-match press conference before the visit of Club Brugge in the UEFA Europa League.
“The addition of Bruno gives us that little bit of a different flavour. He’s a player who likes to play penetrative passes, forward passes.
“He likes to task risks, which a Man United player should do.”The 25-year-old scored his first goal for the club against Watford on Sunday, and also played a major role in the build-up to our second and third strikes, put away by Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood.
Ole believes Bruno’s ability to quickly see the intricacies of a game and keep calm under pressure, as evidenced in the Hornets match, is a major reason behind our positive recent run of results.
“I think his imagination, or his overview, his picture, is a couple of seconds ahead of other players,” the Norwegian added.
“That’s one of his strengths: knowing what he wants to do when he gets it.
“He also can change his mind in a split second. If that picture doesn’t work as he thought, he’ll change it. I think that composure has been important for us as well.”The impact the 19-cap international midfielder has had in his first month in England perhaps isn’t surprising to some, after a hugely productive spell at Sporting Lisbon.
The 25-year-old scored 63 goals and contributed 52 assists in 137 games at the Estadio Jose Alvalade, but Solskjaer thinks playing at a higher level will help Fernandes to get better and better.
“I think he’ll only improve by coming here to a stronger league, with stronger opponents, [and] stronger team-mates getting used to him.
“He’s got that bit of X-factor and that swagger and quality that we want to develop even more. He’s come in and impressed everyone, but we don’t want to put any limit on what he can do.”

performances and a new position as a left-sided centre-back.The 24-year-old has built his career at left-back, first at former club Southampton and then at Old Trafford following his transfer in 2014.
 
But in recent months, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has deployed Shaw as a third centre-back, where the England international has excelled to the left of Harry Maguire.
 
Speaking in the press conference ahead of United's UEFA Europa League last-32 second leg against Club Brugge, Shaw explained how he has adjusted to the challenge."To be fair, I played it a couple of times last season and it's a role that I have been enjoying," he said.
 
"Don't get me wrong – it's not too much different to left-back. I'm still kind of in the same position [of the pitch].
 
“But I'm enjoying it, and I've said before, wherever the manager wants to play, I'm happy to play and happy to be on the pitch to give my all for the team.”Since the recent winter break, the left-footer has twice appeared to the left of a three-man central defence – during the 2-0 win against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and three days later in Belgium, where the Reds gained the 1-1 away draw that gives us a slight advantage ahead of tomorrow night's second leg against Brugge.
 
The player was also keen to cite Solskjaer's support and encouragement in his development.
 
"I think man-management-wise, he’s been unbelievable for the whole squad and he’s brought a smile to everyone’s faces. I think you see that every day," he continued. 
 
"He’s been brilliant and the lads are all really enjoying it and I think even more so now that we’re getting better results. The team are coming back and we’ve got a lot of players back. 
 
“We’ve got an important second half of the season and Ole’s been great. We’re all really enjoying working under him and we need to keep giving him results.”Solskjaer also went on record to praise the full-back's recent versatility during the press conference.
 
"Luke was out for two months and he’s done really well in a new position," said the manager.
 
"It’s mixing between left-back and the left side of centre-back. He runs forward more as a left centre-back than as a full-back. I’ve been very pleased with him there."

Gunnar Solskjaer has given us the latest on two United defenders ahead of the second leg against Club Brugge.The manager only ruled out two of the players who trained in front of the media on Wednesday morning - defenders Axel Tuanzebe and Tim Fosu-Mensah - and provided this update on the pair's progress.

“[Axel and Tim] are getting close to a Reserves match or a behind-closed-doors match," said Solskjaer. “We need them to play in that kind of game before we use them in the first team.”
Fosu-Mensah is yet to feature for the Reds this season after undergoing knee surgery in the summer, while Tuanzebe has been missing since picking up a thigh problem during the Carabao Cup tie against Colchester in December.Other than Fosu-Mensah and Tuanzebe, and long-term absentees Paul Pogba, Marcus Rashford and Lee Grant, Ole has a long list of players to select from.

“We had a couple of knocks in training but hopefully they’ll be okay," he commented.

“We’ve got a strong and fit 25-man squad and it was a good session. We’re looking stronger."Scott McTominay and Mason Greenwood, who both missed the first leg, could be involved, as could youngsters Tahith Chong, James Garner and Angel Gomes, after taking part in today's training session. Odion Ighalo will also be hoping to make his first start for the Reds, after three cameo appearances off the bench so far.
Luke Shaw was the player who sat alongside Solskjaer in the press conference, and the manager hinted that the 24-year-old may start in his customary left-back position, after being fielded as one of a back three in the first-leg.
"I know [Brugge right-winger] Krepin Diatta from my time in Norway," Ole added. "He might be a handful for Luke, you never know!
"Luke was out for two months and he’s done really well in a new position. It’s mixing between left-back and the left side of centre-back. He runs forward more as a left centre-back than as a full-back. I’ve been very pleased with him there."CLUB BRUGGE TEAM NEWS
The Belgians travelled to Manchester earlier today without captain Ruud Vormer and forward Emmanuel Dennis, both of whom picked up injuries during Sunday’s league win over Charleroi.
Colombian midfielder Eder Balanta, who scored the only goal in that game, is suspended after receiving his third caution of the season in Europe, but first-leg absentee Krepin Diatta is among Brugge’s 22-man squad for the encounter at Old Trafford.

Reds took part in a session at the Aon Training Complex, on the eve of Club Brugge's visit to Old Trafford.With long-term absentees Lee Grant, Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford the only senior names missing, 27 players took part in a session which was open to the European football media for the first 15 minutes.
Among those were Scott McTominay and Mason Greenwood, the two Academy graduates who both missed out on last Thursday's 1-1 draw in Belgium.
McTominay, who has been training for a number of weeks now, returned to the first team from a two-month absence during Sunday's 3-0 victory over Watford, while Greenwood scored in the win over the Hornets after recovering from an illness which kept him out of the trip to Brugge.Another player who was not part of the travelling squad to the continent, Phil Jones, was also part of Wednesday's session, while Axel Tuanzebe and Tim Fosu-Mensah trained as they continue their recoveries from injury.
Three players who played for the Under-19s in Belgium - James Garner, Angel Gomes and Tahith Chong - also took part in training.
The trio have all previously featured in the Reds' Europa League campaign this season and might be involved again, as the Reds aim to secure a place in the last 16 of the competition.Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is likely to provide a further update on his squad during his pre-match press conference.
That will take place at the Aon Training Complex from exactly 13:30 GMT, when Luke Shaw will also speak to the media.Training squad in full: David De Gea, Sergio Romero, Nathan Bishop; Diogo Dalot, Luke Shaw, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Eric Bailly, Victor Lindelof, Harry Maguire, Phil Jones, Brandon Williams, Axel Tuanzebe, Tim Fosu-Mensah; Jesse Lingard, Dan James, Nemanja Matic, Juan Mata, Angel Gomes, James Garner, Scott McTominay, Bruno Fernandes, Andreas Pereira, Fred; Anthony Martial, Mason Greenwood, Odion Ighalo, Tahith Chong.

how they got on at the weekend.Brugge have yet to win a game on English soil, and lost 3-1 on their only previous trip to the Theatre of Dreams, back in August 2015.
The Belgians, however, will be quietly confident of progressing, after a strong first-half showing during last week’s 1-1 draw at the Jan Breydel Stadium.
We’ve gathered together everything you need to know about the opposition, ahead of Thursday’s second-leg encounter…HOW BRUGGE ARE SHAPING UP
Brugge edged out fourth-placed Sporting Charleroi 1-0 on Sunday, courtesy of Eder Balanta’s first-minute goal, to extend their unbeaten league run to 13 league games.
The Blauw-Zwarte made four changes to the side that drew 1-1 with United last week, with Ruud Vormer, Eduard Sobol, Charles De Ketelaere and Ikoma Lois Openda replacing Mats Rits, Odilon Kossounou, Percy Tau and Maxim De Cuyper.
Unfortunately for the Belgians, captain Vormer and last week’s goalscorer Emmanuel Dennis picked up injuries at the weekend, and haven’t travelled to Manchester. Balanta, meanwhile, is suspended after receiving his third yellow card of Brugge’s European campaign in the first leg.KEY PLAYERS
In the absence of Vormer and Dennis, Philippe Clement’s side’s primary attacking threat will come from on-loan Brighton and Hove Albion forward Percy Tau, as well as reigning Belgian Footballer of the Year Hans Vanaken.
The former caused United’s backline problems with his pace in the first leg, while stand-in skipper Vanaken had a quiet game by his standards, but has 12 goals in 27 games this season.BRUGGE’S EUROPEAN RECORD

Club Brugge travel to M16 having won just one of their five away games in European competition so far this season. They did, however, claim a creditable 2-2 draw against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu, having earlier led 2-0.
This is the fifth time the Belgian side have featured at this stage of the competition, and they have won only one of their previous four ties – against Aalborg, on their way to the quarter-final in 2015.

this exclusive Q&A, Juan explains the words of wisdom he's passed to our young players and January signings.As one of the elder statesmen in the Manchester United squad, Juan is now perfectly placed to pass on advice to his team-mates, and the Spaniard is more than happy to offer some tips to the younger members of the group.

In an interview for Sunday's edition of United Review, Mata also gave his thoughts on how players like Bruno Fernandes and Odion Ighalo can quickly adjust to the club after their January transfers, which is something Juan himself experienced when he joined the Reds in 2014.

As you can read in the exclusive Q&A below, our no.8 was also asked about his recent form and aims for the remainder of this season…Juan, you’re one of the senior members in quite a young squad. How has it been having so much youthful exuberance coming into the squad this season?
“It’s always nice. They’re always fresh and full of energy and positivity. I remember when I was 18 or 19 and starting at Valencia and it felt that way. You’re there, you’ve got to where you want to be, but you want more. You want to play and you want to show that you’re good enough. We have now many young players, all of them with different qualities and personalities and overall they’re very nice guys and I’m happy to see them develop like they’re doing.”

Are you enjoying playing a role in helping them?
“They know that I am here for them, and I’m here for any of my team-mates. I have been in the same position that they are in now, which is at the front door of their professional careers, so from now it’s very important that they are ready for it and that they stay physically fit and mentally tough because there are some challenges ahead. And I hope they can find the consistency that is needed to be a professional football player. I think they have the qualities and hopefully they will also, during the process, learn the other things too.”
 What have you made of Bruno Fernandes’ and Odion Ighalo’s starts to life here at United?
“We welcomed them both. Bruno is a very good player, we all know that, and a very nice guy also. We have been in contact a lot. He speaks Spanish mixed with Portuguese which is not very different. So he’s a good guy and I think he’s settling in very well. He’s found his place in Manchester [to live] and also with the help of Fred, Andreas and Diogo he’s enjoying it. They’ve helped him a lot. Hopefully he can help us in this second part of the season and I’m sure he will because he’s a quality player. Odion has experience of playing in the Premier League and hopefully he will score many goals for us from now until the end of the season, and, as the manager said, he’s a good character as well and he’s got a good personality which has fitted straight into the dressing room. The better he does, then the better for us – and I wish him all the best.”

You arrived at United in a January window, of course, back in 2014 – how hard was it to acclimatise halfway through a season?
“It’s probably not ideal because you don’t have a pre-season tour or the time to really get into the pattern of the team, but it depends. It takes time for a player to settle and we shouldn’t expect any miracles from anyone, but I’m sure that with the right mindset and the right qualities like Bruno and Odion have they will be a big help for us. Sometimes you have seen players arrive in January and they have been a great success for the clubs they’ve signed for, maybe even sometimes better than when players have arrived in the summer. So I don’t think it has a lot of impact in the long term. Maybe in the short term it’s not the easiest but in the long term it’s irrelevant.”Is there anything that you did to try to speed up the settling-in process?
“You feel the need to try and show as much as you can [on the pitch] as soon as you can, but there is a moment when you have to let your football speak and just flow. That’s what I did when I arrived. The situation wasn’t great and I just tried to be myself and play the football that I was playing before in England and in Spain. Eventually you find yourself, you find your position in the team and your role to play. I think that’s the best way to do it.”What would be the ideal ending to the season for you personally and for the team?
“Personally, being fit and ready to play every single game and hopefully playing a lot of games and helping the team with goals and assists and my way of playing. As a team, making the top four would be very good for us and trying to win the Europa League and the FA Cup. So let’s see… we are positive we can go forward in both cups and get closer to the top four in the Premier League and hopefully we can speak in a few weeks and we’ll be in an even better situation than now.”

what we found out about our former Norwegian centre-back from his brilliant episode of UTD Podcast.The 50-year-old sat down recently with hosts Sam Homewood and David May in Oslo and reflected on his early playing days in Norway, his six-year United career and his exploits since retiring from football.
During the podcast, which you can listen to now, Ronny also lifted the lid on several previously untold anecdotes...
CHOOSING FOOTBALL
Anyone who watched Ronny’s physically dominant displays at the back for United over the years won’t be surprised to know he was an incredibly talented athlete as a youngster.
“Growing up here, for me, it was football and athletics. At that time, I didn’t know which direction it was going to take me,” said Johnsen.

“I could do 100m, 200m and up to 800m. At that time, I was quite good at it, but I hated it to be honest. I quit when I was 15. I had a passion for it, but I felt too much pressure. At that age, it was too much on my shoulders.”PLAYING UP FRONT
It may come as a shock to discover the Norwegian actually began his career in a more advanced position, and even made a few appearances for the national side in that role.
“I played as a centre-forward until I was 24, so just before I came to United. I had never played as a winger before I played for the national team. I played in a game against Paolo Maldini where I didn’t touch the ball, seriously! The national coach had statistics from the game like ‘so many involvements, pluses and minuses’ and for me it was zero!”HE HAD A TRIAL AT BAYERN MUNICH
Ronny had a brief trial with Bayern Munich early in his career and the German club wanted to bring the youngster in permanently. However, the defender’s first side Eik-Tonsberg ultimately put Bayern off with their asking price.
“I trained with them for a week,” he reflected. “I finished and went up to the manager’s office and was just thinking of saying thank you for having me, and he said ‘We want you. We want to sign you, but we want to loan you out to another club. ’I was like ‘you’re kidding me?’ 
“I went back to Norway and played for Eik-Tonsberg and they said they wanted to buy me. But at that time, I think they needed a lot of money, and it didn’t go through.”
STRANGE INITIATIONS
In 1995, Johnsen joined Turkish side Besiktas and was greeted with a somewhat unusual introduction.
“I stood there, and everybody was being presented for the fans and the stadium was full. I was waiting there and on top there was a goat which they cut and then took the blood from the goat and put it on your forehead before you ran out on the pitch.

“I was thinking ‘this can’t be happening’ in front of a full stadium, and at that time I had never experienced a sound like it.”REJECTING SIR ALEX
There’s a very short list of players that have ever dared to defy Sir Alex Ferguson, yet in Ronny’s case, he felt there was no choice but to reject his offer when United first came calling.

“My agent called and said, ‘is it OK for Alex Ferguson to call you?’ and I didn’t know what to say. Since I had followed United, for me, he was the biggest one. When he called, I had a really good relationship with the German coach [Christoph Daum] and I felt like to leave in the middle of a season was not right, you leave somebody behind, you know. 
“So, we agreed that more or less, I would come at the end of the season.”
INJURIES TOOK THEIR TOLL
Unfortunately for Johnsen, fitness issues began to catch up with him and it eventually spelled the end of his time at Old Trafford.

“I struggled with jumper’s knee and it was unbelievably painful,” he recalled. “So that 1998/99 season I did everything I could, the gaffer helped and tried to balance it. It was so bad - my patella tendons were so inflamed that they had to remove a third of them in both knees, so it was quite a big operation. It takes time to come back from that.”";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:6:"images";a:1:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:6:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:102:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/182/898582/GettyImages-12860671582707669883_xlarge.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:6:"2.35:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:1;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:101:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/182/898582/GettyImages-12860671582707667910_large.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"16:9";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:2;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:103:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/182/898582/GettyImages-1286067-11582707668386_thumb.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"1:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:3;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:102:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/182/898582/GettyImages-12860671582707668378_medium.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"4:3";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:4;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:101:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/182/898582/GettyImages-12860671582707669392_small.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"3:4";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:5;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:104:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/182/898582/GettyImages-12860671582707670382_portrait.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"6:16";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}}}}}}s:3:"top";a:2:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:3:{s:7:"content";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:4:{s:3:"url";s:66:"'img:ImageCropUrl(800,

out which two key players could be involved on Thursday night, after missing the first leg in Belgium.Scott McTominay, who hadn’t featured for almost two months and didn’t make it on last week’s trip to Belgium, came on as a substitute during our 3-0 win over Watford on Sunday.
Assuming he got through that 10-minute cameo unscathed, he could be in the manager’s thoughts for Thursday's game at Old Trafford.
Another player who missed our 1-1 first-leg draw at the Jan Breydel Stadium is Mason Greenwood.
That was through illness, yet this time the Reds are waiting for news on the youngster’s fitness, after he limped off with cramp shortly after scoring our third goal against the Hornets.Axel Tuanzebe, who hasn’t played since mid-December, was pictured in training last week, as he continues his recovery from a thigh problem.
Tuanzebe joined fellow defenders Tim Fosu-Mensah and Phil Jones in being left at home for the short trip to Brugge.Angel Gomes, James Garner and Tahith Chong all featured for United during the Europa League group stages, but they took part in an Under-19s friendly against Brugge’s youngsters hours prior to the first-team match, and were therefore unavailable for the first leg.
Solskjaer could provide a more detailed update on some of the players mentioned above when he sits down in front of reporters at the Aon Training Complex for his pre-match press conference on Wednesday afternoon.Three Reds will definitely be missing for Thursday’s clash. Marcus Rashford is expected to remain on the sidelines for another few months, after suffering a stress fracture to his back last month while Paul Pogba is still recovering from his January ankle operation.
Meanwhile, goalkeeper Lee Grant is out for the next two to three months, having undergone surgery in early February.
The good news is that none of United’s players are currently sitting on a Europa League suspension.
The threshold for missing a game is three yellow cards, and none of our current side has picked up more than one so far.";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:6:"images";a:1:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:6:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:122:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/38/861881/IMG_0373_2019110790316801_201911070904331582707909597_xlarge.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:6:"2.35:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:1;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:121:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/38/861881/IMG_0373_2019110790316801_201911070904331582707907641_large.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"16:9";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:2;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:121:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/38/861881/IMG_0373_2019110790316801_201911070904331582707908594_thumb.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"1:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:3;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:122:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/38/861881/IMG_0373_2019110790316801_201911070904331582707908096_medium.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"4:3";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:4;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:121:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/38/861881/IMG_0373_2019110790316801_201911070904331582707909095_small.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"3:4";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:5;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:124:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/38/861881/IMG_0373_2019110790316801_201911070904331582707910097_portrait.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"6:16";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}}}}}}s:3:"top";a:2:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:3:{s:7:"content";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:4:{s:3:"url";s:66:"'img:ImageCropUrl(800,

Europa League round of 32 second leg.The Reds head into the tie on the back of a six-game unbeaten run in all competitions and after impressive back-to-back Premier League wins against Chelsea and Watford.

Along with Sevilla and Porto, United are one of just three former Europa League champions (since its rebranding in 2009) left in the round of 32 and the Reds are aiming to emulate our 2017 success by going all the way again this campaign.

Here’s all the essential pre-match information that you need to know ahead of the game…WHICH TV CHANNEL IS IT ON?

Thursday’s game will be broadcast live in the UK on BT Sport 2. You can also keep across all the action on MUTV. Prior to kick-off, subscribers can watch the build-up via the ‘Match Day Live’ show from 18:55 GMT, followed by live commentary of the game itself. The match will also be replayed in full on MUTV from 00:00 GMT on Friday and at various times throughout the day.STATE OF PLAY

With the aggregate score tied at 1-1 from the first leg, the balance of power is in United’s hands ahead of the reverse fixture. That away goal in Belgium means the Reds just need to keep a clean sheet at Old Trafford to ensure passage through to the next round. Should the 1-1 scoreline be repeated again on Thursday, the tie will head to extra-time and then potentially penalties, if the sides cannot be separated after 120 minutes.WHO IS THE REFEREE?

Dutch referee Serdar Gozubuyuk will take charge of Thursday's game. The 34-year-old has officiated two matches in this season’s Europa League competition: Arsenal's 3-2 win over Vitoria SC and Borussia Monchengladbach's victory against Wolfsberger. The Haarlem-born referee has already taken charge of a game in Manchester this season and was the man in the middle when our neighbours Manchester City hosted Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League last October. Gozubuyuk will be assisted by Charles Schaap and Jan de Vries, while Allard Lindhout will assume the role of fourth official. Jochem Kamphuis will cast an eye over proceedings from the VAR studios, alongside assistant Bas Nijhuis.";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:6:"images";a:1:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:6:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:123:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897869/A94T9139_2020022081937341_202002200835561582631404005_xlarge.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:6:"2.35:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:1;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:122:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897869/A94T9139_2020022081937341_202002200835561582631402031_large.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"16:9";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:2;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:124:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897869/A94T9139_2020022081937341_20200220083556-11582631402503_thumb.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"1:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:3;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:123:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897869/A94T9139_2020022081937341_202002200835561582631402500_medium.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"4:3";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:4;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:122:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897869/A94T9139_2020022081937341_202002200835561582631402999_small.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"3:4";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:5;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:127:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897869/A94T9139_2020022081937341_20200220083556-11582631404008_portrait.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"6:16";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}}}}}}s:3:"top";a:2:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:3:{s:7:"content";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:4:{s:3:"url";s:66:"'img:ImageCropUrl(800,

vice-chairman Ed Woodward has detailed the progress being made at the club.Speaking on the quarterly update call for investors, Woodward detailed the progress being made on and off the pitch as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Reds embark on the decisive spell of the 2019/20 season, competing for silverware at home and abroad.
He is also proud of the work being undertaken at Academy level with Old Trafford preparing to stage the quarter-final tie of the FA Youth Cup against Wigan Athletic on Friday night."I want to provide an overview of progress towards our number one priority - winning trophies with a team playing entertaining, attacking football," said Woodward. "Since our last call in November, we have progressed to the knock-out stages of the Europa League; we are through to the fifth round in the FA Cup, and we remain in the mix to qualify for the Champions League.

“This season is one of rebuild, with many changes to the squad - in terms of players who have left or gone out on loan; new players who we have brought into the club; and Academy graduates that we have brought through to the first team. This process will continue as we implement our plan and our footballing vision under Ole and his coaching staff."Despite being linked in the media to 111 players in January, our acquisition of just one of them - Bruno Fernandes - is an important step in that direction, demonstrating our commitment to adding experienced, world-class recruits to the exciting crop of Academy graduates that are at the heart of this developing team," he added. 
“We will take the same planned, disciplined approach this coming summer.
In addition to the first-team signings, somewhat under the radar, we have also made a number of exciting youth acquisitions in the past year, reflecting our commitment to bringing the best talent into our Academy. So far, our Academy graduates have contributed over a third of first-team playing minutes this season and over half of our goals, emphasising our Academy’s status as one of the most productive in elite-level European football.
“This is an important competitive advantage for us and represents an excellent return on the fourfold increase in investment that we have made in the Academy over recent years."Meanwhile, Old Trafford continues to be the subject of more investment to ensure it remains one of the most iconic venues in world sport.

Group managing director Richard Arnold explained: "As Old Trafford celebrates its 110th anniversary this year, these investments demonstrate our commitment to maintaining its status as one of the iconic football stadiums in Europe, whilst preserving the unique heritage and character which sets it apart from more recently built venues.

“We have worked with fan groups on measures to further enhance the matchday experience in general admission areas, including the successful trial of an atmosphere section in the Stretford End and an application with relevant safety authorities to trial rail-seating in an area of Old Trafford where fans persistently stand. These steps, together with the freeze in season-ticket prices for the past eight consecutive seasons and the cap on away ticket prices in the Premier League, reflect our commitment to engaging with our loyal match-going supporters to keep Old Trafford safe, full and atmospheric."";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:6:"images";a:1:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:6:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:123:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/180/898244/AN2V0198_2020022330015636_202002230421401582635702392_xlarge.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:6:"2.35:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:1;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:122:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/180/898244/AN2V0198_2020022330015636_202002230421401582635700403_large.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"16:9";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:2;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:122:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/180/898244/AN2V0198_2020022330015636_202002230421401582635701398_thumb.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"1:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:3;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:123:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/180/898244/AN2V0198_2020022330015636_202002230421401582635700897_medium.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"4:3";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:4;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:122:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/180/898244/AN2V0198_2020022330015636_202002230421401582635701904_small.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"3:4";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:5;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:125:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/180/898244/AN2V0198_2020022330015636_202002230421401582635702894_portrait.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"6:16";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}}}}}}s:3:"top";a:2:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:3:{s:7:"content";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:4:{s:3:"url";s:66:"'img:ImageCropUrl(800,

The defender made his senior bow in the Europa League tie against Astana and also featured against AZ Alkmaar at Old Trafford in December.
The deal will keep Ethan at the club until June 2023, with the option to extend for a further year.
Woolston, who joined United in 2018, signs a one-year extension as he looks to continue his development with the club.

the latest UTD Podcast, Ronny Johnsen talks about being scouted by the Reds and two memorable away trips in 96/97.Following on from recent editions starring ‘90s favourites Gary Pallister, Eric Cantona and Jesper Blomqvist, this week, the team sit down with our former Norwegian centre-back Ronny Johnsen, who played for the Reds between 1996 and 2002.
In an interview which lasts over an hour, and is available to listen to now on Deezer and all your favourite podcast platforms, Ronny talks about being scouted by United alongside international team-mate Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
“I played in the game when [Jim] Ryan was first over [to watch me],” Johnsen told hosts Sam Homewood and David May in an Oslo hotel.“He was not supposed to start either, it was one of them. He came in and I think it was the first game he played and he scored a fantastic goal in the top corner. I was like ‘oh my God!’
“And then everything happened for him, and the qualities he had were unbelievable.”

Johnsen also recalls two memorable away trips with United: his debut at Wimbledon and a famous win over Liverpool at Anfield.
In the former, the Norwegian received a less-than-warm welcome to English football from the notoriously inhospitable Vinnie Jones, as well as observing one of the finest goals in United’s history.“I was on the bench, but came on, I think, at the beginning of the second half [and played] in midfield,” Ronny adds.
“A long ball came from our back four. I was running, just turning around, running after it and Jones came running the other way. He missed me by that much, with his elbow! And I was like, what is that?
“I met Vinnie some years later and he said: 'I was going to flatten you, stand over you and say 'welcome to English football!'
“Also in that game, David Beckham scored from the halfway line, and I never saw that before either. Two things in a game, I’ve never seen, even in training!”Later in the season, we virtually secured the title with a 3-1 win over Liverpool on Merseyside.
What Johnsen remembers most, however, is something Alex Ferguson did in the dressing room after the game.
“We came into the changing room and the gaffer came in a little bit late,” Johnsen tells our hosts, in the video above.
“We were buzzing and he said: ‘Quiet, quiet!’ The changing rooms in that stadium are very close to each other and you can hear their manager go ballistic and [Ferguson] is like: ‘Listen, you can hear them!’
“I loved it!”

excitement builds, we delve into the football world for the lowdown on our in-form January signing.On his home bow against Wolves, the 25-year-old delivered a composed Man of-the-Match display and, last Monday, Fernandes produced his first assist – a vicious, precise corner-kick for Harry Maguire's header – to help seal a vital win over top-four rivals Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

An eye-catching cameo in the Europa League draw with Club Brugge in Belgium followed, before another award-winning performance against Watford at the weekend - which yielded his first goal for the club, as well as a big hand in the other two goals.

But how did Fernandes make his name in Lisbon? What kind of player is he? What is his personality like away from the pitch? We speak to fans, a journalist and a United legend to get some answers…THE JOURNALIST
Tom Kundert, Portuguese football expert

“I’m always happy to talk about Bruno Fernandes. What a player! People will get to know him quickly, because he can do things very few players can. His long-range shooting is amazing, but his most outstanding asset is his passing – not only his execution but his vision. Sometimes you think ‘what... how did he even think about that pass?’ and you’re up in the stands! You’ve got a view of the whole pitch and even you can hardly see it. He sees it and pulls it off. In Portugal, you’ve got three teams that are so much better than the rest, so a lot of the time they’re facing massed defensive ranks. You need players who can do something a little bit different. They call them ‘a tin-opener’. He’s a perfect one. When there’s no way through he seems to find one, either with a spectacular goal or a fantastic pass.“If you take a more holistic view, his attitude is absolutely first-class. Sporting have been playing in a pressure-cooker situation for the last few seasons. They’ve had a bad time, falling further and further behind Benfica and Porto. It’s a massive club, which brings a lot of pressure, and a lot of players can’t really handle that. Bruno was exactly the opposite. It didn’t seem to matter how poor Sporting were. He always maintained a very high level.

“He’s definitely a leader. Also, you have to factor in that he’s had a very interesting career already, because he took the very unusual step of going to Italy as a teenager. I think it’s fair to say he’s carried Sporting over the last couple of years. He’s played about 60-odd games a season, every minute of every game, the Nations League. He went to the World Cup. That’s a lot of high-intensity football for three years solid. So I don’t think going to a new country will faze him. I really do think he’s one of these players, a bit like Cristiano – he’s made it his mission to get the very utmost out of his career.”THE SPORTING FAN
Ivo Costa, Núcleo do Sporting Club de Londres

“I was dreading the day he left! We knew that Man United and other teams were interested because of his goal average, which was phenomenal. For a guy in his position to score that many was just unbelievable. We just realised: ‘Let’s enjoy it while we have him’.

"I watched Bruno every week, and he was very influential. A couple of years ago, some supporters went to our Academy and tried to beat up the players. It was all politics. We had a great team, but lost seven or eight players, and Bruno threatened to leave. But he came back as co-captain with Nani, and, if it wasn’t for him, we would have been in dire straits. He has been the league’s best player for two years.

"He was always the one trying to motivate, trying to organise the players, putting his heart and soul into the club. He’s a very spontaneous guy. What makes him good is that he takes risks with the ball. Of course, that sometimes means it can be dangerous for the team, but Bruno is excellent.

"I actually have a bunch of friends involved in cinema and theatre in Portugal who are minor VIPs that are friends with him. They always say that he’s top-notch; a really nice guy, down to earth and always very friendly. I think he’s going to be great for Man United, though it’s not the best news for us.”THE REDS LEGEND
Lou Macari, attacking midfielder (1973-84)

“The role of a midfield player has always been the same. You’ve got to get about the pitch, get a few tackles in, get forward, get back. And if you ask most players who play in midfield, they’ll tell you that they find it quite a difficult position to play in with the demands. You’ve got to be fit, you’ve got to be strong, you’ve got to want to do your little bit of defending as well for the team. I don’t think Bruno’s going to let us down in any of those departments.

“He looks confident. If you were at his first game at Old Trafford and someone said, ‘There’s a newcomer on that pitch’, you couldn’t have picked him out. He blended in as if he’d known the rest of them for the last 10 years. He looked to have a shoot-on-sight policy, and that should stand him in good stead and get him a few goals at United.

“They’ll have watched him probably every week this season, because we’ve got that many scouts. I’m just hoping that the big strength he’s got is putting the ball in the back of the net, because I’ve felt all season that’s something we’ve lacked from midfield – a natural goalscorer.

“But for someone who’s played most of his football in Portugal, first of all it takes a bit of time to find your feet, because the pace of the Premier League is probably twice as fast. He will find 90 minutes a lot tougher in our Premier League. I noticed that when he came off against Chelsea, he was puffing and blowing a little bit.

“But he had a good debut with promise and he looks like he’ll get a goal or two for us. He had that set-piece outside the box where he hit the post at Chelsea, which was good to see.

Wales winger was a handful for the Hornets and looks to have benefited from his recent time off.Bruno Fernandes scored his first goal for the Reds, with Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood adding their own stunning efforts to seal the game in the second half.
But Daniel James’s contribution shouldn’t go unnoticed.The Wales winger produced arguably his best individual display of 2020 so far, troubling Watford right-back Craig Dawson with his direct runs and perhaps being unlucky not to register on the scoresheet himself, with his shot in the 65th minute flying just wide of Ben Foster’s goal.
James also cut in from the left – after spending much of the campaign on the opposite flank – to provide good chances for Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Fred in the first half, as well as playing the measured through-ball which Fernandes latched on to before being brought down for his spot-kick.
The benefits of the winter break have been much discussed in recent weeks, and the 16-day hiatus the Reds enjoyed between the Wolves and Chelsea games appears to have particularly refreshed the 22-year-old, who recorded more sprints (18) and shots (four) than any other United player, according to Opta data.Sunday’s performance was reminiscent of Dan’s irresistible August.
The summer signing from Swansea City experienced an exhilarating start to life at Old Trafford, netting three goals in his first four appearances.
As the campaign progressed, he provided memorable assists for Marcus Rashford for his goals against Liverpool, Norwich City and Sheffield United, as well as setting up Martial and Greenwood for their efforts versus Manchester City and Everton respectively.James’s output diminished slightly after the festive period, but perhaps that’s no great surprise for such a young and inexperienced player.
Prior to his big move, the Hull-born speedster had made just 39 senior appearances at club level, a total he’s only five games away from matching this season, against higher calibre levels of opposition, at home and in Europe.
With the Reds playing a game every three days for much of December and January, and James involved in all bar a handful, it’s no wonder tiredness started to creep in, something the wide man admitted during our recent trip to Marbella.That meant the 73,347 people packed into Old Trafford got to see Daniel replicate his dangerous early-season form, for which he later received praise from his manager.
“Yeah, he’s had a couple of games where he’s not played,” Ole Gunnar Solskjaer told MUTV’s Stewart Gardner after the final whistle at Old Trafford.
“He’s had a break now and we want him on the touchline taking people on, running in behind, mixing up his football and today was Dan, more or less, at his best.”
With key games to come in three competitions, let's hope that the 22-year-old can continue to be a menace to opposition defences, whether on the right, left or in a more advanced position.

out how the club plans to increase engagement with local schools and grassroots clubs across the North West.The programme will be a bridge between the community and curriculum-based charitable work undertaken in over 50 local schools by Manchester United Foundation, and the club’s elite youth academy, which is fed by the club’s industry-leading scouting network and brings in the best talent from around the world.

The Emerging Talent Programme will deliver a range of projects in order to identify talented footballers across the region and support them further by offering them the opportunity to potentially attend a structured development programme at the club’s Emerging Talent Centre, based at the Aon Training Complex.

Over the next three years, the club aims to engage with over 20,000 children and young people through a range of positive activities that will aim to increase their enjoyment of football and assist them with further opportunities to continue playing the game.

The Emerging Talent Programme will be led by Jen Mildenhall as the Programme Manager and is staffed by a new, bespoke coaching and delivery staff. The club’s existing Football in the Community group will also operate as part this new team.The Emerging Talent Programme will operate under the overall Academy structure and will focus on three main areas, divided by age group:

Schools activity
Over the next three years, every Primary School (approx. 900 in total) and Secondary/High School (approx. 400 in total) across Greater Manchester will be offered the opportunity to participate in a tournament or football festival event hosted by the Emerging Talent Department.  There will be a range of formats for different age groups, identified through the Foundation Phase  (Under 9’s – Under 11’s) and Youth Development Phase (Under 12’s – Under 14’s)
 
Grassroots clubs and coaches
In parallel to schools activity, the Emerging Talent Programme will increase proactive engagement and strengthen relationships with grass roots clubs at every level from Manchester, Cheshire, Merseyside, Lancashire and Yorkshire, in order to support recruitment coverage and bridge the gap between grassroots and elite football.

This will see a minimum of 300 grassroots teams attending tournaments/festivals per year, while a minimum of 50 grassroots clubs will receive on site visits per year. To bring the wider coaching community together with the academy and create a wider ecosystem, at least 500 grassroots coaches will attend CPD workshops per year.

Emerging Talent Centre
Alongside activations based in schools grassroots clubs, United will run an Emerging Talent Centre for 44 weeks of the year, based at the Aon Training Complex, which will offer a high quality development programme for identified talented footballers.

This will complement the coaching and development work done within schools and clubs, and will focus on under 9’s–under 14’s age groups, with a structured Games Programme embedded into the centre for all age groups. It will run alongside the main Elite Academy Programme and feed into this for the most talented players.
 Nick Cox, Head of Academy for Manchester United, comments: “Involving and engaging with a core of local talent is fundamental to everything we do at The Academy and in order to do this we are committed to our presence and activity within our local community in Manchester and beyond. The new Emerging Talent programme enables us to radically increase the number of schools, grassroots clubs and communities that we interact with across Manchester and the North West, allowing us to create a wider coaching network with better exposure to local footballing talent.

“As well as identifying talent, our aim is to give young people that are passionate about football an opportunity to have an experience of Manchester United.  We’re aware of our responsibility to enrich the local football community by sharing resources and knowledge.  Over the next three years, we aim to engage with over 20,000 children and young people (boys and girls) through a range of positive activities via schools and grassroots clubs. The aim is to increase their love of football and give them further opportunities to continue playing the game.”

new exhibition has been opened at the club museum to mark 110 years of football at the Theatre of Dreams.The exhibition was launched last Wednesday and charts our stadium’s 110-year history, from the first game in 1910 and being bombed during World World II, to the modern-day version which is the largest club venue in British football.

The display’s curator, Maggie Amankowicz, said she was ‘very proud’ during the official opening on Wednesday, which was attended by a number of guests, including former players such as Denis Law.
 “We’ve got hold of quite a few new pieces of memorabilia relating to Old Trafford and we felt it was the right time to showcase them, which coincided with the 110-year anniversary of Old Trafford opening,” Maggie told club media.

“We felt now was the best moment to do it and share with the public all the stuff we’ve got. What I really wanted to stress is how the ground has changed. Since 1910 it has gone through so many redevelopments.”

Maggie has gathered a number of never-before-seen artefacts for the new display and one in particular stands out for her.

“One of my favourites is definitely the shrapnel we found, which was dropped by the Luftwaffe in 1940,” Maggie said.“After a second bombing we had to go to Manchester City and ask them for help, and we rented their ground for eight years. When we came back to Old Trafford in 1949 it wasn’t quite as pristine until 1966, when we hosted some World Cup matches.

“During that time between 1941, when you had a derelict Old Trafford, to 1966 and the World Cup, I think it was just a fantastic moment in Old Trafford’s history and how the club managed to turn it around again.

“There aren’t many clubs that can boast about being here for 110 years,” she added. “That’s amazing from a historian’s point of view that we celebrate and cherish this heritage. I’m very pleased and proud about this display.”
 One of the many interested attendees during Wednesday’s opening was Head of Catering & Events Delivery, Steve Cooper, and he feels the new exhibition brings Old Trafford’s 110-year history to life.

“There have been so many brilliant things that have happened here over the years and to be able to capture them in one space is just fabulous,” he said.

“It’s been interesting to see the ground morph into what it is today. Now we’ve got the new disabled-access facilities which have gone in and they’re fabulous – including for away fans.

“It’s another brilliant upgrade. We’ve got six more hospitality restaurants that will be refurbished over the summer which helps us deliver world-class service for such a different breadth of supporters. It’s fantastic.”

out the key Reds-related dates for your diary, as February moves into March.With an FA Youth Cup quarter-final and several birthdays also on the horizon, there’s plenty to jot down in your diary as February ends and March begins.
Here is what’s in store over the next seven days…
MONDAY
As well as continuing to provide reaction to Sunday’s excellent 3-0 win over Watford in the Premier League, we’ll also be celebrating the 80th birthday of one of United’s greatest-ever players. Denis Law hit 237 goals in 404 appearances during his decade-long spell at Old Trafford, placing him third on our all-time list of scorers. Many happy returns, Denis!

Our live debate show, Kicking Off, is also back. Tune in on MUTV, and via the Official App, to vote for your favourite contestant, from 18:30 GMT.TUESDAY
With first-team fixtures once again coming thick and fast, attention will turn to Thursday’s Europa League last 32 second leg against Club Brugge. Before that, we’ll be wishing our former midfielder Ji-Sung Park a happy 39th birthday. The South Korean won four Premier League titles, three League Cups and a Champions League trophy during a productive seven-year period in Manchester.

The latest edition of the UTD Podcast, starring our former Norwegian centre-back Ronny Johnsen, will also be released. You can tune in on Deezer and all your favourite podcast platforms.
WEDNESDAY
Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer turns 47! After he blows the candles out on his cake, he'll hold his pre-match press conference, ahead of the Club Brugge match, at the Aon Training Complex, at a time to be confirmed.
Happy birthday Ole!THURSDAY
The first-team are back in European action, as Belgian league leaders Club Brugge travel to Old Trafford for a 20:00 GMT kick-off. The tie remains in the balance, after a 1-1 draw at the Jan Breydel Stadium last week, with Anthony Martial’s 36th-minute equaliser providing us with a potentially pivotal away goal.
You can follow all the action and reaction from our last-32 second leg on MUTV from 18:55 GMT, on our Official App and through ManUtd.com.
FRIDAY
Should everything go to plan on Thursday night, we'll be in the hat when the draw for the last 16 of the Europa League takes place in Nyon, Switzerland from 12:00 GMT. Voting for our February Player of the Month will also open in our Official App. Fred took home the January award, and we're sure this month's gong will be hotly contested after a largely positive few weeks on the pitch.
It’s a crunch day for our Under-18s, as we host Wigan Athletic at Old Trafford in the quarter-finals of the FA Youth Cup (19:00 GMT kick-off). Neil Ryan’s side have reached this stage of the competition, which we have won on a record 10 occasions, for the first time since 2012, and tickets for the match at the Theatre of Dreams are free.
SATURDAY
We’ll be previewing Sunday’s Premier League match at Everton, as the Reds aim to continue our good recent form in domestic competition. Solskjaer’s men have kept five clean sheets in succession on English soil and are aiming to win three league games in a row for the first time this season.

manager believes our 18-year-old forward is going to get better and better in the years to come.That was the opinion of Reds' boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, after the teenager scored his 11th goal of the season in United’s 3-0 Premier League win against Watford at Old Trafford.
Greenwood's 75th-minute piledriver was his fifth league strike of the campaign, and no United player has reached that landmark at a younger age.
“He’s the best finisher we have and he’s one of the best I’ve seen,” Ole enthused in his post-match press conference. 
“Right foot, left foot, it doesn’t matter. He’s just so sharp in and around the goal. He’ll never lose that goalscoring knack.”The 18-year-old made a handful of appearances towards the end of the 2018/19 campaign, but has really made his breakthrough in the first team this season, playing 33 times.
Mason did come off shortly after scoring, apparently with cramp, and Ole believes it's worth reminding people that the youngster is still growing into his body.
“The whole season he’s had says a lot for him. He’s just going to get better and better,” Solskjaer added.
“He’s only 18, we’ve got to remember that. He’s still not fully grown in his body, he’s not like Wayne Rooney at 18. He still has a young body and in a few years' time he’ll be more or less the complete No.9.
“He’ll still fill out more but it will take a couple of years. Give him time because it’ll be natural. He’s 18 now and he’ll still fill out more: his upper body, his legs.

“He’s now starting to get a man’s body but it will take a couple of years because you can’t do that too early.”

club historian, Cliff Butler, pays tribute to his hero, who was crowned 'The King' by supporters.To say that the blond-haired Scottish genius was one of the greatest players ever to pull on a football jersey isn’t open for discussion. As part of the famous ‘Best, Law and Charlton’ trinity of the 1960s he reached, along with George and Bobby, the very pinnacle of his chosen profession and, in doing so, became idolised by an entire generation of United supporters.
It was those denizens of the raucous, passionate, swaying mass of humanity who regularly squeezed into the Stretford End that singled him out as their number one. It was no surprise that they eventually bestowed upon him the regal status as their very own ‘King’.
It is with delight, pride and not a little nostalgia that I can say I was one of those who placed him on a pedestal during those incredible years, when he terrorised defences with his bravery, lightning reflexes and spring-heeled leaps that saw him win considerably more of the aerial battles than he lost.Manchester United have been fortunate throughout their history to have some truly outstanding players represent the club, but in more than 60 years since I saw my first game at Old Trafford there has never been, in my personal opinion, another of the greats who ever came within a million miles of toppling Denis Law from his perch.

There was always something very special, almost unique, about the way Law played the game. Charlton was a totally wonderful exponent of the game with his majestic style, ferocious shooting and scintillating passing skills. George Best was true to his name and is rightly regarded by many observers as occupying a place at the very summit in the pantheon of the world’s finest players. It was almost impossible to place one of these three megastars above the others and so it came down to choice – and Law was always the one for me.He was at Leeds Road as the same time as the legendary Bill Shankly, which can only have been beneficial in the development of a young player making his way in the game. Shankly left Huddersfield around the same time as Law and there is belief that, having joined Liverpool, he wanted his fellow Scot to join him at Anfield. Yet, as the story goes, the money was just not available.

So Manchester City was his next step up the ladder. But his fame had already spread far and wide, and barely a year after arriving at Maine Road he was on the move again – this time to Italy. Torino was the club he joined and his stay in Piedmont turned out to be an illuminating experience for the young Aberdonian. The culture and lifestyle contrasted considerably with what he had been used to, but in football terms he acclimatised well playing alongside Joe Baker, who joined Torino from Hibernian around the same time. Both Law and Baker remained in Italy for about a year, but the whole adventure almost ended in tragedy when they were involved in a road accident. Baker suffered life-threatening injuries, from which he eventually made a complete recovery, while Law emerged almost unscathed.Matt Busby, Manchester United’s manager at the time, had always coveted Law’s signature and in the summer of 1962 he finally got his man. The rest, as they say, is history. Law was the perfect fit for the United side that Busby was gradually assembling following the horror of the Munich Air Disaster five years earlier.

I remember seeing one of the photographs, taken during the build-up to his first campaign at Old Trafford, and I was immediately smitten by the mere style of the man. It was just a black and white picture, but he personified class with his ultra-modern Italian boots. Scoring on his debut against West Bromwich Albion made the instant impact that everyone craved and from then on he could do no wrong.

United finished the season with the FA Cup on display in the boardroom, after narrowly escaping relegation, and Law scored one of the goals as the Reds defeated favourites Leicester City 3-1 at Wembley. The team may have toiled during his first season (FA Cup triumph aside) but Law had been a roaring success, heading the club’s scoring chart with 29 goals in league and cup.That is a night that will live with me forever but it would have been even better if Law had been there to share in the moment.

In sharp contrast to my constitutional and atheistic opinions, I have to say that Denis Law is the closest I will ever get to meeting a ‘God’. It’s said that to avoid disappointment you shouldn’t ever wish to meet your idol. Where he is concerned that couldn’t be further from the truth, for he is truly a great person and I am always privileged to be in his company.

Thank you for all the wonderful memories, Denis – long live the King!

race, while Old Trafford remembered a United great.The Reds had to be patient to break the deadlock during our Premier League clash, before Bruno Fernandes fired us into the lead just before half-time, while goals from Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood wrapped things up in the second period.

Bruno’s first strike for United will, no doubt, have dominated the conversations among many fans as they made their way home from the Theatre of Dreams, but find out what else could be discussed by supporters...

OLD TRAFFORD SALUTES HARRY

Ahead of the game, United fans and players paid tribute to the late Harry Gregg with a minute’s silence, which was observed perfectly by both sets of supporters. A banner was also unveiled in the Stretford End commemorating the United and Northern Ireland great that read: “Forever Red, forever loved, forever grateful.”BRUNO ON TARGET

At times, it was a frustrating first half for Bruno, who received some rough treatment from the opposition. However, the Portuguese midfielder showed his quality five minutes before the break and earned a penalty with a driving run into the box, after he was hacked down by Ben Foster. Our no.18 then stood up and calmly slotted it home from the spot and fired United into a well-earned lead. Bruno also had a significant hand in both of our second-half goals, registering an assist for each of them. It means our January recruit has averaged an assist a game in his three United appearances to date.GREENWOOD BACK WITH A BANG

Mason missed our midweek trip to Belgium through illness, but recovered in time to be selected from the off on Sunday. The Watford clash was the attacker’s first start since our Boxing Day triumph over Newcastle United. Playing from the right wing, Mason provided a constant headache for the opposition defence - this was never more evident than in the 75th minute when he fired home our third and final goal of the afternoon. The teenager’s pile-driver gave Foster no chance and killed off any hope of a Watford comeback.IGHALO MAKES HOME DEBUT

With the three points wrapped up, Ole looked to his bench and introduced Odion Ighalo for his maiden Old Trafford bow in a red jersey. The Nigerian’s introduction was greeted with a huge roar from the home supporters and he so nearly made it 4-0 in the latter stages. However, some last-ditch defending from the Hornets pushed the striker wide of the goal and his effort from an acute angle struck the outside of the post.TOP-FOUR PICTURE

The race for the Champions League places took another twist on Saturday with Tottenham Hotspur and Sheffield United dropping points, meaning it was crucial for the Reds to capitalise this afternoon. Our 3-0 victory not only did this, but also helped strengthen our goal difference over the chasing pack. Three points on Sunday ensured the Reds move up to fifth in the table, three points behind Chelsea in fourth and our goal difference is four better than the Blues and sixth-placed Spurs.

Shaw has pats on the back for the threesome who helped lift the Reds into fifth spot in the league and just three short of Chelsea in the top four.

“Bruno has had a massive impact. He has only been here such a short time but it feels like he has been here for a while,” Luke told MUTV.

“You can tell he was a leader at Sporting Lisbon and I think he wants to bring those sort of leadership skills here and help the team as much as he can, off the pitch as much as on the pitch, as he is doing now.

“Hopefully, he can keep that up. He is already shining for us and it is great to see.”
Fernandes impudently opened his United goal account from the spot and then Martial, equally audaciously, grabbed his 15th of the season with a daring finish.

“The quality Anthony has got is unbelievable. If he keeps working hard and keeps believing in himself, he can be one of the best,” said Shaw.

“He has got that ability to be able to do special things that not many can, but he is definitely one that can do it. I’m happy for him, hopefully he can keep scoring goals because we need them.”
The Old Trafford win was crowned with a sensational run and hit by Greenwood who made it 11 goals for the campaign.
“The confidence Mason has at such a young age is what you need to thrive here,” said our full-back.
“I don’t think he is arrogant one bit but he has that confidence at the right sort of level. He just wants to play football and he is not bothered about what is around him.
“He is not bothered about any pressure at all, he is just enjoying his football. All the lads are happy he can contribute with a goal and it is great for him. He was brilliant.”Shaw himself has been in confident mood and thriving either as a traditional left-back and left centre-half when manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has employed a back three.
“Whenever you are on the pitch, you have to enjoy it as much as possible. I have been playing in a different position which I am enjoying,” Luke said.
“It is great to be playing and you always have to have a smile on your face.
“It is nice for the manager to be able to play me in two different positions. It is also great for the manager that he has Brandon Williams. He has been doing amazing when he’s played and he is a wonderful talent.

The Portuguese then stepped up to score and open his account for the club.Anthony Martial doubled our lead after the interval with a sumptuous chip over the Watford keeper, before Mason Greenwood capped off a great afternoon with a thunderous strike to make it 3-0.

from the penalty spot in the 3-0 win against Watford.The Portuguese midfielder got off the mark for his new club after winning and converting a penalty for the Reds, shortly before half-time. But Bruno's involvement in the match wasn't done there, as he helped set Anthony Martial on his way for our second and assisted Mason Greenwood's rocket of a strike to secure all three points.
This performance adds to his assist in last Monday's Premier League match against Chelsea, which saw Bruno provide the corner for Harry Maguire to head home.
"It feels so good," he said to MUTV after the game. "For me, it’s another dream come true. These last few weeks have been amazing for me and the team. We drew against Wolves, but, after that, we had good games, away against Chelsea and home against Watford today, but I’m really happy about the three points and we are [moving] up in the table.""I feel happy," he added. "My family arrived on Friday, they arrived just in time to see me score."
There was plenty of confidence behind the technique used by Fernandes to take his spot-kick. The midfielder has now scored each of his last 13 penalties in top-flight football, stretching back to his time with Udinese in 2016.
Bruno produced an elaborate jump before sending Ben Foster the wrong way to ensure the Reds went into the break with the lead.
"Normally, I shoot in this way, but I also change sometimes. Today, I felt confident to shoot like this and the goal was good," he said.Fernandes has been a popular arrival since his move from Sporting Lisbon was confirmed in January, with plenty of chants of "Bruno, Bruno" when he was brought down in the 40th minute.
"I feel good about this. The fans are amazing and they give me more confidence to play and be happy when I play, but also part of this is from my team-mates. They help me a lot, they give me a lot of confidence, they trust in me and that is the most important for me."In the latter stages of the game, Fernandes also turned provider for Greenwood, who rocketed a shot in off the crossbar and into the top corner with 15 minutes to go. When asked about the promising 18-year old, Bruno believes he has what it takes to be a good player.
"Mason has a lot of qualities. He’s short and he needs to grow up more, but with the confidence he has, the trust we pass to him and the quality he has, he can be such a good player."

says the Man of the Match is like two former United stars in the way that he performs.The boss believes his new recruit will make a huge difference to the way United operate as other players will be encouraged to make runs, knowing he will deliver the right passes.
Although he has already switched positions in midfield, it is likely that the Portugal international will primarily be used in the no.10 slot in order to attack defences.“Now we’ve got the no.10 or attacking midfielder nailed down," said Solskjaer. “Hopefully, he’ll keep fit and keep producing performances.
“He’s a box-to-box midfielder and can do everything a midfielder can. He’s similar, as I said, to Veron and Scholes. Some games he’ll play in a two, and some games he’ll play attacking midfielder or a 10. He’s played every position in midfield.”The forwards will benefit from Fernandes's promptings and the early signs are looking positive after his passes led to goals for both Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood. The former Sporting Lisbon star also floated a ball on to Harry Maguire's head but the big defender planted it wide in the second half.
“Bruno has come in to be a very important player,” added Ole. “We’ve needed that type of player. He knows he’s here to play. One of the good things about him is he takes risks with the ball, like Veron did. 
“I used to love playing with Seba because you’d run and you’d get the ball. If he doesn’t hit you, at least he’s looking for you and that’s what Bruno does. That will encourage players to make more runs, I hope, because there aren’t enough of them still.”Bruno was a clear Man of the Match in the Official App, registering a whopping 81 per cent of the vote, well clear of Martial and Greenwood.
He made five crosses, drew the most fouls and was second only to Nemanja Matic in terms of distance covered from a United perspective, third overall behind Watford's Will Hughes.

in the 3-0 win against Watford and says he's far from finished yet.
The 18-year-old Reds Academy product crashed in his 11th goal of the campaign against Watford in our 3-0 Premier League win at Old Trafford.
Greenwood scored his opening first team goal back in September when he struck the winner in a 1-0 Europa league win against FC Astana.

He’s been bagging them at a pretty steady rate since, and our Bradford-born striker admits he wouldn’t have believed anyone who’d told him he’d have this many in February but
doesn’t want to stop here.
 “It was an amazing feeling scoring," Mason told MUTV after the full-time whistle. “I am just working hard for the team and I’m happy with my goals and I will carry on working hard to get more goals.”
“To have 11 goals is amazing and I want more and more. I will just carry on working hard.”
Whilst his own was a eye-catching hit, Greenwood also had praise for United’s other scorers in the victory.
Bruno Fernandes scored an impudent penalty to open his own Reds account and Anthony Martial scored his third in less than a week with a superb, audacious finish.

The Portuguese international midfielder has made a great impact since joining the club last month in the transfer window and provided the much-needed breakthrough in a tough opening 45 minutes for the Reds against the Hornets.
“We played well and it could have been more but we got the win. Getting three points was the most important thing,” added Greenwood.
“It was important to go in at half time ahead because it was an end to end game. So when Bruno went through and got the penalty, and then getting the goal it was a feeling of relief. It gave us a boost for the second half.

“Bruno’s a top person. He helps the team in every way possible both attacking and defending. It is great to have him at the club. It is great to see him playing at Old Trafford and score his first goal. I am sure there is going to be more of that.

“It looks like he has been here for years and he’s settled in nice and sweet. He is part of the group now and part of the team.

“Anthony’s goal was brilliant. What can you say? It is Anthony Martial. He did what he does in front of goal. Well done to him.”

"It was a very good win. That's two good wins and two clean sheets [in the league since the winter break], plus some goals to celebrate. I thought, in the first half, we started by gifting them some good opportunities but, gradually, we created more and more chances. 
“It's been a very good week, overall. We also got an away goal and score-draw in Europe so I'm very pleased with everyone after the good break we had. That was an important week in Marbella; building team spirit, camaraderie and some understanding between players. It's working. Now we want to kick on."BRILLIANT BRUNO
"He’s a footballer. He loves playing football, he wants the ball, he’s got the personality and character to demand it all the time, wanting to take the penalty. He takes it the way he does it to show he is a Man United character – not just a very, very good footballer."
MARTIAL MASTERCLASS NO SURPRISE
"He’s so skilful, is Anthony. I thought he’d ran offside, but the timing from Bruno’s pass was perfect and the skill there is just incredible. He does that in training, so you’re not that surprised. I’m delighted with the week Anthony has had. He has his critics - I’m probably the biggest. He scored a great header against Chelsea, did everything to score against Brugge and today was more classic Anthony. But I want more from him."ANOTHER GOAL FOR GREENWOOD
"He’s a young kid learning his trade. He is learning to play against men, but he’s always been a goalscorer and he’ll never lose that, because that is in the moment and the most difficult thing in football. But he’s got it. You just know when he’s got chances, he’s going to create half a yard to get a finish and he’s going to hit the target and I’m very pleased with his performance.
JAMES BACK TO HIS BEST

onto the pitch ahead of Sunday's game against Watford.The Guests of Honour are all local people aged 65 and over and are dedicated Manchester United fans, who have experienced loneliness. The touching moment, which saw the guests step out in front of an expected crowd of 73, 346 people, serves as a reminder of the issue of loneliness which affects hundreds of thousands of older people living within Britain’s communities, and aims to inspire people to ‘Donate your words’  to those who need them the most.
Cadbury believe there is a glass and half of generosity and kindness in everyone and Manchester United share this belief. As a result, the club has joined Cadbury on their ‘Donate your words’ campaign in a bid to encourage the fans and nation to ‘Donate your words’ and make a difference to the lives of older people.The campaign comes following recent research, conducted by Cadbury and Age UK, which revealed that in a typical week, almost 2.6 million people aged 65 and over speak to three or fewer others, with more than 225,000 often going a week without speaking to anyone.

The survey found that simple, small gestures can play a part in helping to tackle loneliness as over six million older people claimed a few minutes of conversation would make a huge difference to their week. Older people said they’d feel more confident to go outside their home, if they knew someone was smiling when in a queue, or if anyone had asked how their day was going.Colin O’Toole, Associate Marketing Director at Cadbury said: “We’re proud to announce this partnership with Manchester United and to continue supporting Age UK with our ‘Donate your words’ campaign.  Loneliness is such a huge problem amongst the older generation, and we are encouraging Manchester United fans and the wider nation to engage with this cause by donating their words at every opportunity to lonely, older people in their communities. We are also looking forward to working with Manchester United in the future on further collaborations of this nature.” Sean Jefferson, Director of Partnerships for Manchester United said: “We’re pleased to start our partnership with Cadbury by supporting their ‘Donate your words’ campaign. The Club is encouraging all fans to give a few moments of their time to speak to older people around them who might welcome a thoughtful conversation.

Greenwood score on a good afternoon for the Reds.January signing Bruno Fernandes got the Reds up and running with his first United goal since signing from Sporting Lisbon when he impudently converted a first-half penalty.
The new recruit was also heavily involved in the second-half goals from in-form hitman Anthony Martial, who scored his third in under than a week after strikes against Chelsea and Club Brugge, and Mason Greenwood got in on the act as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side eventually cruised to fifth spot, three points adrift of Frank Lampard's Blues.
There was a scare after the break when Troy Deeney equalised, only for it to be ruled out by VAR for handball against Craig Dawson.It was a shaky start by the Reds, particularly at the back, that gave Nigel Pearson’s relegation fighters plenty of encouragement to attempt to get on the front foot.
After four minutes United’s sloppiness almost gifted Watford an early boost in their bid to get out of the bottom three. Harry Maguire and Nemanja Matic got in each other's way as they attempted to mop up danger. Instead, they created mayhem and Deeney looked odds-on to shock Old Trafford. However, the Watford skipper took one extra touch and, as he shaped to pull the trigger, Luke Shaw stepped in with a timely block.
United’s first chance fell to Aaron Wan-Bissaka, after 17 minutes, when Ben Foster parried Daniel James’s cross into the right-back’s path. But it was a wayward attempt that only troubled the side-netting.David De Gea had to keep out Abdoulaye Doucoure’s shot on the half-hour as the Hornet’s again suggested they could be first to make the breakthrough.
James cracked in a decent effort soon after, but it was a struggle for United to rediscover the Premier League form we’d shown at Chelsea last Monday night in the 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge. Another chance was wasted after 38 minutes when Fred fired wide from a great position after being teed up by James.
Finally, the Reds got our noses in front when Fernandes was released by James and brought down by Foster inside the box. The no.18's penalty was the cheekiest of finishes to open his United goal account, three minutes before the interval.Watford thought they’d levelled after 52 minutes when Deeney forced the ball home but, as he ran off celebrating, Maguire was already indicating a handball in the lead-up to the goal.
The Reds captain was correct as VAR disallowed the goal out because the initial corner had struck Dawson’s upper arm as he forced the save out of De Gea that led to the ball rolling across the line towards Deeney, who rammed it in.
United’s response was brutal as we quickly went 2-0 ahead.
Architect Fernandes was involved again in a positive Reds attack as he sent Martial away in the 58th minute.
The Frenchman’s chance looked to have been stifled originally by Foster and the Watford defence but he recovered possession, spun and brilliantly lifted an audacious clip into the net.
Fernandes should have had another assist as United turned up the heat but Maguire misdirected his header wide in the 68th minute as he passed up the chance of his second league goal in a week, having scored at Chelsea.MATCH DETAILS

Galton then grabbed her second of the afternoon eight minutes later, as she brought down Jess Sigsworth’s lofted pass to fire a low effort into the bottom-right corner. Toone made it 3-0 in the second period as she tapped the ball home from a couple of yards out, following Jane Ross’s cross.

Everton gave themselves a lifeline soon after when Danielle Turner headed the ball home from a corner. The Blues set up a thrilling finale in the closing stages of the game as Lucy Graham’s stunning cross-cum-shot found the back of the net in the 83rd minute.After a 1-1 draw against Brighton and Hove Albion last time out, Casey Stoney made four changes to her starting XI. Abbie McManus and Lotta Okvist returned to the back four, replacing Amy Turner and Martha Harris, while Galton and Sigsworth were back in the starting line-up in place of Katie Zelem and Lauren James.

Stoney came up against former colleague Willie Kirk, who is now Everton Women’s manager. They shared a handshake prior to kick-off before attentions turned to the clash.The first goal of the afternoon came down the left-hand side, which proved to be a fruitful avenue for United throughout the first half. Toone then slipped the ball into Galton, who produced a couple of stepovers to evade her marker and smashed the ball high into the roof of the net, past the helpless Sandy MacIvera in Everton’s goal.

It was soon 2-0 as United sprung a quick counter-attack which found Sigsworth in space in the Toffees's half. The striker’s lofted pass was expertly brought down by Galton inside the penalty area, before our no.11 saw off a challenge from Danielle Turner and fired a low shot into the bottom corner, putting the Reds in complete control on Merseyside.

The home side nearly pulled a goal back just before half-time, but, thankfully, the hard-working Sigsworth blocked a goal-bound effort from Everton’s Turner just inside the box.Willie Kirk’s side started the second half on the front foot and created the first opportunity through Boye-Hlorkah, whose powerful effort was tipped over the bar by Mary Earps. However, it was the Reds who struck next, to make it 3-0. Ross worked her way past Megan Finnigan on the right wing to find space, before crossing the ball to Sigsworth, but her loose touch fell to Toone and our no.7 couldn’t miss from close range.

Everton pulled a goal back in the 67th minute as Earps misjudged the flight of the ball from Chloe Kelly’s in-swinging corner, allowing Danielle Turner to head the ball into an empty net and give the hosts a way back into a game which had been dominated by Stoney’s Reds up to that point.

The superb Galton was subbed shortly before the Toffees's first goal with Lizzie Arnot replacing the winger. United were also forced into a second change shortly after as Sigsworth went down injured. Full-back Martha Harris replaced the striker, as the Reds looked to shore up the defence with Everton looking dangerous. Katie Zelem was our final alteration in the 78th minute, as she came on for Toone, who enjoyed a fine afternoon with a goal and assist.

The Blues reduced the deficit even further in the 83rd minute to make it 3-2, as Lucy Graham’s long-range cross spectacularly flew over Earps, clipping the inside of the post before nestling into the net.
United looked nervy after Everton’s second goal and the home side piled forward in search of a stunning comeback. A number of corners tested our backline and Turner came closest to pulling the game level for the Toffees. 
However, the Reds firmly held on to grab a vital three points.";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:6:"images";a:1:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:6:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:108:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/180/898065/photo_2020-02-23_13-23-021582465328053_xlarge.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:6:"2.35:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:1;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:107:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/180/898065/photo_2020-02-23_13-23-021582465325580_large.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"16:9";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:2;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:107:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/180/898065/photo_2020-02-23_13-23-021582465326550_thumb.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"1:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:3;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:108:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/180/898065/photo_2020-02-23_13-23-021582465326051_medium.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"4:3";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:4;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:107:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/180/898065/photo_2020-02-23_13-23-021582465327049_small.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"3:4";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:5;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:110:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/180/898065/photo_2020-02-23_13-23-021582465328558_portrait.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"6:16";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}}}}}}s:3:"top";a:2:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:3:{s:7:"content";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:4:{s:3:"url";s:66:"'img:ImageCropUrl(800,

Manchester United side for the home game with the Hornets contains six changes.David De Gea, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Bruno Fernandes, Daniel James, Fred and Mason Greenwood all come into the side after not starting in the 1-1 draw against Club Brugge in the Europa League on Thursday night.
It is teenager Greenwood’s first start in the Premier League since he scored against Newcastle on Boxing Day.
"Victor [Lindelof] has recovered and we’ll have to give Eric [Bailly] time to settle in and train in between because he needs the training," the manager told MUTV. "That’s one reason. Mason has recovered since not travelling to Brugge and we want to go a bit more attacking with Brandon [Williams] and Mason swapping.Scott McTominay, who is back from a knee injury, is also in the 18-man squad and starts on the bench against the Hornets. 
Tahith Chong and former Watford striker Odion Ighalo are also among the substitutes, but there is no place for Jesse Lingard or Andreas Pereira.
"We picked a squad of 18 and we felt it was the right 18 here," added Ole. "We’ve got cover on the bench for wide men, forwards, midfielders and defenders, so that was the decision I made.
"It says everything about Scott that he played a full half with a torn ligament [against Newcastle]. He’s recovered really quickly. He’s been doing everything to get back. He’s looking stronger and fitter. He wanted to play today but we need to manage him properly."
There are four ex-Reds in the visiting squad - Ben Foster and Craig Cathcart start, while Tom Cleverley and Danny Welbeck are on the bench.United: De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire (c), Shaw; Fred, Matic; Greenwood, Fernandes, James; Martial.
Substitutes: Romero, Bailly, Williams, Mata, McTominay, Chong, Ighalo.
Watford: Foster, Masina, Cathcart, Dawson, Kabasele, Capoue, Doucoure, Hughes, Deulofeu, Pereyra, Deeney.
Substitutes: Gomes, Mariappa, Chalobah, Cleverley, Gray, Sarr, Welbeck.

boss discusses how we can avenge December's defeat to the Hornets, as well as a "special" day for Odion Ighalo.In an exclusive pre-match interview with MUTV, conducted after Thursday night’s draw in Brugge, the boss said he wants us to attack the Hornets from the off, as we aim for back-to-back wins in the Premier League.
The Norwegian, who spoke about the benefits of playing at home for the first time in three weeks, also gave an update on Mason Greenwood and Odion Ighalo.
Read the full interview below…Firstly Ole, are you hopeful that Mason Greenwood and maybe a couple of others might be available for Sunday’s match against Watford?
“Yes, we hope so. We’ll see how he is when we get back from Brugge. Of course we rested quite a few so we’ve got a fit squad to choose from.”
Watford were struggling when we went there before Christmas but they’ve had a comeback since then. Nevertheless, they are obviously still desperate for points…
“Nigel [Pearson] has done fantastic with them, of course we were the start of that and we shouldn’t have let that happen. We had chances ourselves and we gave easy goals away so we need to get back to playing proper football, attacking football. That game was too slow, so hopefully we can get at them and be on the front foot and press them, and also with the ball be more decisive with our passing and play through them, around them and get crosses in, and put pressure on them.”It feels like ages since we’ve been at Old Trafford – will it be good to be back?
“It’ll be great to be back. It’s fantastic after the Chelsea win and we hope to build some momentum and Watford is a big game in that respect, so all eyes on that one.”
I think Odion Ighalo got 40 goals in 100 appearances for Watford so if he plays or features it will be a special day for him…
“Definitely it will be a special day for him and hopefully he can add to that goal tally in the Premier League but against them.”

It includes confirmation that England will open the tournament at the iconic 74,879 capacity venue in Greater Manchester, offering the host nation the opportunity to break the attendance record for a UEFA Women’s EURO in its opening fixture.

Home of Manchester United, Old Trafford is one of ten grounds across the country which will stage UEFA Women’s EURO 2021 matches next summer. Wembley Stadium – with a capacity of 90,000 – will host the showpiece final on 1 August, meaning the venue is hosting back-to-back men’s and women’s European Championship finals in 2020 and 2021.As tournament hosts, Phil Neville’s Lionesses qualify automatically and will complete their group stage fixtures in front of home crowds at a further two Premier League venues – Brighton & Hove’s Community Stadium and St. Mary’s Stadium in Southampton.

Now in its 13th edition, the UEFA Women’s EURO 2021 is poised to be the biggest women’s EURO to date, with over 700,000 tickets available to fans and extensive coverage of every game of the tournament available on free-to-air television, radio and online. Fans will be able to see some of the world’s best players in action on home soil as 31 matches are played across 26 days of competition.

To register for tickets, as well as tournament news, competitions and volunteering opportunities, please visit TheFA.com/WEURO2021.Baroness Sue Campbell DBE, The FA’s Director of Women’s Football and UEFA Women’s EURO 2021 Board Member said: “The confirmation of Old Trafford as the iconic venue for England’s opening game shows just how big our aspirations for UEFA Women’s EURO 2021 are. As a proud host nation, our aim is not only to deliver a record-breaking tournament, but also to ensure that it provides a tangible legacy in terms of growing the women’s game. By inspiring fans both at home and abroad, and by committing to provide playing opportunities to girls in every school and club across the country, I am confident that we can do exactly that.”

Phil Neville, England Women’s Head Coach said: "It doesn’t get much bigger than managing your country at a home EURO and to have the opportunity to do so at a stadium that holds so many memories for me is huge. Old Trafford has a special place in my heart, but it is also one of the country’s most iconic football grounds, so today’s announcement is a significant one for the tournament. I’m looking forward to kicking off our WEURO2021 campaign in Manchester and to offering fans across the country the chance to watch the elite women’s game on home turf next summer.”Collette Roche, Chief Operating Officer, Manchester United FC said: "Manchester United is honoured to host the Lionesses for the opening game of the UEFA Women’s EURO 2021. Staging this illustrious fixture at Old Trafford provides a fantastic occasion to introduce women’s football to a whole new audience and support the global growth of the sport. With the potential opportunity to break the attendance record for an opening match at the UEFA Women’s EURO, this is a match not to be missed.”

Nadine Kessler, UEFA’s Head of Women’s Football said: “This UEFA Women’s EURO 2021 will be ground-breaking from start to finish. To kick-off at the ‘Theatre of Dreams’ in Manchester, and to have the final at the iconic Wembley Stadium shows just how far the game has come. This is what women’s football deserves. To play in such stadia is what you strive for - as a player, coach, referee and a fan. I am so happy for everyone who will have the opportunity to experience this. Our goal is to deliver a memorable tournament and inspire the next generation of football-loving girls and boys. Knowing The FA and England’s long-term commitment to the women’s game, we have no doubt that we will achieve this together and set a new European benchmark.”

ahead of Sunday afternoon's clash in the Premier League.The Hornets drew 1-1 at Brighton & Hove Albion in their last match before the winter break, leaving them in 19th place with only Norwich City below them as they look to secure a sixth straight season in the top flight.

We've taken a detailed look at Nigel Pearson's side, ahead of their visit to Old Trafford...
TEAM NEWS

Senagelese winger Ismaila Sarr and Spanish right-back Kiko Femenia are in contention to face the Reds after returning from thigh injuries. Long-term absentee Daryl Janmaat could make his comeback at the end of the month but this weekend's game will come too soon for him. United Academy graduates Danny Welbeck and Tom Cleverley will hope to be involved at Old Trafford despite a lack of first-team action this season; the latter is lacking match fitness, having not played since October.FORM GUIDE
After picking up four victories over a three-week period in December and January, Watford are without a win in their last four Premier League matches and conceded late goals in three of those. Hornets centre-back Adrian Mariappa netted an own goal in the 1-1 draw at Brighton, while Aston Villa and Everton both struck in the 90th minute to snatch all three points. The visitors' last win was in early January at Bournemouth, which was only their second away scalp of the season, something they will be looking to improve upon against United. PREVIOUS MEETINGS
Watford were victorious in the last meeting between the sides, with Sarr making the difference. The 21-year-old netted the opening goal before winning a penalty which Troy Deeney converted to secure a 2-0 win. However, in the last fixture between the two clubs at the Theatre of Dreams, on 30 March 2019, the Reds ran out 2-1 winners. Marcus Rashford coolly slotted home following a superb through ball from Luke Shaw before Anthony Martial's second-half header proved to be the winner, with Abdoulaye Doucoure pulling a goal back for the Hornets late on.OPPOSITION MANAGER
Before Nigel Pearson's appointment as head coach in December, Watford were bottom of the league and six points from safety with only one victory to their name. Since then, the experienced manager has improved the club's fortunes and despite still being in the bottom three, the Hornets are only one point behind Aston Villa in 17th position. Pearson has managed a host of English clubs, including Southampton, Hull City and Derby County, but is perhaps most well-known for his spell at Leicester City, winning promotion to the Premier League in 2014 before keeping the Foxes up against all the odds the following season.";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:6:"images";a:1:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:6:{i:0;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:105:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897947/GettyImages-12010165701582301161115_xlarge.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:6:"2.35:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:1;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:104:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897947/GettyImages-12010165701582301149093_large.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"16:9";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:2;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:104:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897947/GettyImages-12010165701582301160092_thumb.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"1:1";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:3;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:105:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897947/GettyImages-12010165701582301149586_medium.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"4:3";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:4;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:104:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897947/GettyImages-12010165701582301160091_small.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:3:"3:4";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}i:5;a:6:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";s:5:"child";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"image";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:109:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897947/GettyImages-1201016570-11582301161129_portrait.jpg";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:5:"ratio";s:4:"6:16";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}}}}}}s:3:"top";a:2:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}i:1;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:15:"CropDefinitions";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}s:29:"http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/";a:3:{s:7:"content";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:4:{s:3:"url";s:66:"'img:ImageCropUrl(800, 541, sc:fld('Image',$newsItem, 'mediaid'))'";s:4:"type";s:10:"image/jpeg";s:5:"width";s:3:"800";s:6:"height";s:3:"541";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:9:"thumbnail";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:4:{s:3:"url";s:104:"http://www.manutd.com/AssetPicker/images/0/0/13/179/897947/GettyImages-12010165701582301160092_thumb.jpg";s:4:"type";s:10:"image/jpeg";s:5:"width";s:2:"80";s:6:"height";s:2:"59";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}s:4:"text";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:35:"What you need to know about Watford";s:7:"attribs";a:1:{s:0:"";a:1:{s:4:"type";s:4:"html";}}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}s:7:"http://";a:1:{s:7:"matchid";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:"data";s:0:"";s:7:"attribs";a:0:{}s:8:"xml_base";s:0:"";s:17:"xml_base_explicit";b:0;s:8:"xml_lang";s:0:"";}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}s:4:"type";i:128;s:7:"headers";a:11:{s:27:"access-control-allow-origin";s:1:"*";s:12:"content-type";s:23:"text/xml;
