Continued his aggressive approach and looks set for a run in the team after being named man of the match 8 He’s very good at holding the ball up and getting on the end of crosses. Adam Armstrong: A number of eye-catching dribbles to move away from pressure and carry ball forward. He’s a top player but they still need more. Casemiro is not going to change that fact. You get to 37 years of age, you’re not going to go sprinting away from people. Che Adams: Given a start after his match-winning double from the bench against Leicester. Won a free-kick after a cheeky nutmeg on McTominay and showed some nice turns away from pressure 7 James Ward-Prowse: Like watching a game of chess as he battled the similarly silky Eriksen. The ploy worked to perfection in the 55th minute. Tyrell Malacia: Tenacious presence at left-back despite majority of Southampton coming down his side.

WHAT HE SAID: Speaking to reporters ahead of Manchester United's clash against Southampton, Ten Hag said, "It doesn’t mean when you are captain, you are established to play always, especially when you also have Varane in your squad.

The Reds built on Monday' fantastic win against Liverpool to rack up our first away win of the Premier League season - and a first competitive victory away from ...
Dalot’s pinpoint assist proved to be match-winning for United at a key point of the game. Perhaps most impressively of all, he audibly dictated when his teammates needed to tighten up through the centre. United’s new signing only entered the pitch with 10 minutes to go, and he was absolutely everywhere! Saints couldn’t deal with the sheer numbers in the box as Fernandes was left wide open on the edge for his magic moment. The Portuguese right-back stayed composed, recovered possession and offered a physical presence throughout. The 23-year-old’s crunching tackle down the wing gave him an early boost of confidence and he never looked back. Another Elanga run inside set the goal in motion by freeing up space for Dalot, Sancho and Bruno in one fell swoop. Bruno’s ability to link passing moves together brought the likes of Sancho and Marcus Rashford into the game when they would have otherwise been completely isolated. There was a 15-minute spell just after half-time where our manager’s intelligence changed the course of the game. His calmness on the ball and ability to pick a simple pass also aided us in some tight positions as Southampton overloaded the flanks. He also showed real desire to bomb forward and aid the attack. Fernandes’s lethal winner sealed the win, in what was his second consecutive match wearing the captain's armband.

In the 55th minute, the ball was played to Dalot on this near side and his cross found Bruno Fernandes in the middle. Man Utd stepped it up a gear and looked dangerous right from the off. In the second half, it was a different story though. After 19 minutes, Man Utd looked certain to take the lead, but the Saints kept them out in miraculous fashion. There were few clear cut opportunities and it was no surprise it was goalless at the interval.

“We have to carry on for the rest of the season. “We said it today before the game. That’s what it’s about to play for Manchester United.” “An amazing cross from Diogo,” said Fernandes. Buoyed by the incisive runs of Anthony Elanga and Jadon Sancho, who began to cut inside to create space for others, the Reds ripped through the Saints' defence with a fantastic passing move that ended with Bruno firing into the back of the net. The hosts were well-drilled and compact, giving United little room to breathe on a less-than-perfect pitch.
