Premier League:  Ole's golden touch continues, this time with a 2-1 win v Brighton at home on Saturday. Pogba won and scored a penalty in the 27th minute before an absolutely brilliant goal by Rashford in the 42nd minute to put United in control. Brighton did pull one back against the run of play on 72 minutes and from then on United couldn't get control of the game and were glad to hear the final whistle. Burnley at home on Tuesday 29 January is next, that's after the FA Cup tie away to Arsenal. 

    

Champions League: United have been drawn to play PSG in the last 16 with the first leg at home on the 12th February.

 

FA Cup: United beat Reading 2-0 at home in the 3rd round of the FA Cup on the Saturday 5 January. A penalty from Mata and a goal from Lukaku on the stroke of half time was enough to see off a bright Reading side.
