Player ratings

Amad runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 47. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market

Daniel Evans puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Manchester United, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Bryan Mbeumo in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Manchester United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

4 matches without a win for Manchester United

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Manchester United are no longer polite ones.

Market

The Kobbie Mainoo conversation is coming

Everyone has stopped pretending: Hull City will make the call about Kobbie Mainoo this week. Manchester United have a number in mind, and the number is not shy.

Market

Manchester United turn down Swindon Town for Luke Davis

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Market

David Harris has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Manchester United they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad

Matheus Cunha gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match

West Bromwich Albion take the points off Manchester United

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Boardroom

The silence upstairs is getting loud at Manchester United

Nobody on the board has said anything against the manager, which is the point — they have stopped saying anything for him either.

Market

Only the photograph left for Harry Amass

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Harry Amass will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Manchester United the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad

Kepa Arrizabalaga keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Manchester United may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad

Tempers go at Manchester United

Bryan Mbeumo was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market

Manchester United say no — this time

The offer from Barnsley for Filip Marschall was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market

Jason Grant hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Manchester United can pretend not to have heard.

In brief
