Rashford Has Great Potentials --Welbeck

Arsenal striker Danny Welbeck has told the Daily Mirror of his delight at Marcus Rashford’s impressive impact at Manchester United.
Rashford, 18, scored twice on his United debut in the Europa League last weekend before netting another brace last Sunday, as he helped inflict a 3-2 defeat on Welbeck’s Arsenal.

Like Rashford, Welbeck, 25, made his way through United’s youth setup, going on to score 20 Premier League goals in 92 appearances.
The England international, who left Old Trafford for the Gunners in 2014, said of Rashford: “We both grew up in Manchester, came through Fletcher Moss Rangers and then onto Manchester United, coming through the academy, making it into the first team and making a debut.
He has done brilliantly well. Individually I was really pleased for him, obviously to make a great debut like that in the Europa League and then into the weekend he did well.

“It was disappointing [for us] on the day. I was down when we lost that match. I’m pleased for Marcus but disappointed to lose that game.
“My brother is very close with his family. He’s known his family for a very long time and Marcus was coming through the ranks at United when I was playing in the first team and I would see him all of the time.



“He’s someone that I always spoke to. He’s a great kid. He’s very level headed. He’s got great potential and I hope he does very well. I’ve spoken to him a couple of times.
“Fletcher Moss was where it started for me and a lot of other players as well. It’s vital that they get the stature back up again, get everything running smoothly again.
“There’s a lot of talent in Manchester that grows up in and around that club. Hopefully it can keep going for many more years.”

See Van Gaal's Opinion on Martial Injury.. Insists He Must Play Against Arsenal

Manchester United striker Anthony Martial had a hamstring problem in the warm-up and forced to sit out the Europa League clash with Midtjylland at Old Trafford on Thursday night.



The Frenchman was replaced at late notice by teenager Marcus Rashford, who was promoted from the bench in order to make a dramatic first-team bow, scoring twice in the 5-1 victory that sealed a 6-3 aggregate success.

After losing David De Gea in the build-up to the first leg in Denmark, it is the latest in a series of unfortunate injury blows for Louis van Gaal's team but the boss suggested afterwards the decision to withdraw Martial was a precaution.

"It should be his first muscle injury [since arriving at the club]," he told BT Sport. "But he is smart and wise to step out. It is not a rupture or anything like that. A tight hamstring. I don't think it is very heavy."

The manager elaborated further at his press conference: "Anthony can be tired. He's only 20 and he's played all the matches so it's not so remarkable. He stepped down himself and that I like very much.

"I have already explained to you the only muscle injury we have is Marouane Fellaini. That we know already when he played so many matches in a row. It's always like that when you don't have other players and it's difficult to change or rotate. So the next muscle injury would be [expected to be] Martial but I don't think he has a muscle injury. He is very intelligent - he steps down when his hamstring is tight.

"You have to cope with that, it's difficult also for the team because, after David De Gea, now Martial, and Martial and De Gea have played very good seasons, I think, and they have to be replaced."

Nonetheless, everybody will be eagerly waiting to see if Martial will be available for Sunday's Barclays Premier League clash with Arsenal at Old Trafford.

Evolving Man Utd make Champions League return

   The Champions League theme music will boom out over Old Trafford again on Tuesday when
Manchester United return to the competition against Belgian side Club Brugge in the play-off
round.
After a first season out of the competition in 19
years, United have been led back by Louis van Gaal,
who won the Champions League with a brilliant,
young Ajax team in 1995 and took Bayern Munich to
the final in 2010.
Fourth in the Premier League last season, United
have opened the new campaign with 1-0 wins over
Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa, and Juan Mata
believes Friday’s victory at Villa Park showed the
team’s readiness.
“I think we can improve, but six points from six
points is a very good start for us and now we have a
lot of confidence ahead of the Champions League
play-off,” the Spanish midfielder told MUTV.
 “The clean sheet is a very positive factor. We’re
talking about having new players at the back and
they’re doing great as well.”
It is a year and four months since United last played
in the Champions League, losing to Bayern in the
quarter-finals in April 2014, and it says much about
the profound change the club has undergone since
then that only four of the players who played in the
3-1 second-leg defeat in Munich are likely to line up
against Club Brugge.
Patrice Evra, Nemanja Vidic, Darren Fletcher, Shinji
Kagawa and Danny Welbeck have left the club, while
David Moyes is no longer in the dug-out, having been
sacked 13 days later.
Of those who made it onto the pitch against Bayern
that remain, Phil Jones is currently sidelined with
thrombosis, Antonio Valencia and Javier Hernandez
are out of favour and goalkeeper David de Gea has
been removed from the team after becoming
unsettled by Real Madrid’s interest.
That leaves Wayne Rooney, Chris Smalling, Michael
Carrick and Adnan Januzaj, a late substitute at the
Allianz Arena, who came in from the cold to score
the winner at Villa after disappearing from view in
Van Gaal’s first season.
Januzaj is one of two Belgian players in Van Gaal’s
squad alongside Marouane Fellaini, who is serving a
three-match domestic suspension but could feature
on Tuesday.
– De Sutter swansong –
Having marked his return with a goal, Januzaj will
hope to hold onto his place at number 10 in support
of Rooney, although Van Gaal expressed reservations
about his use of the ball against Tim Sherwood’s side.
Memphis Depay, the £25 million ($39.1 million, 35.2
million euros) signing from PSV Eindhoven, was also
singled out for criticism by the manager, but Mata
has backed the Dutch international, who squandered
an excellent late chance against Villa, to come good.
“The good thing is that he is having the chances,” said
Mata, a European champion with Chelsea in 2012.
“He’s getting in the position to have the chances, but
the goals will come for him. I think he will score for
us very soon.”
While United contested three Champions League
finals between 2008 and 2011, winning one, Club
Brugge are the only Belgian club to have reached the
final, losing 1-0 to Liverpool at Wembley in 1978.
Michel Preud’homme’s side finished top of the table
in Belgium last season, but lost out to Gent in the
ensuing championship play-off.
For former Belgium striker Tom De Sutter, the tie
against United, which concludes on August 26, will
serve as a swansong prior to his departure for
Turkish side Bursaspor.
Club Brugge, who last played in the group phase in
2005, have made a modest start to the season,
winning twice, drawing once and losing once, and
Preud’homme is concerned that his team have been
playing too much sideways football.
“There’s not enough tempo or depth,” said the
former Belgium goalkeeper, whose team beat
Panathinaikos 4-2 on aggregate in the third qualifying
round.
“Playing like this, it will be impossible to trouble
Manchester.”

Manchester United wins first match of the season

The full-back diverted the ball into his own net
when putting Wayne Rooney under pressure in the
first half as the axed David de Gea watched on
from the stands
An own goal from Kyle Walker ensured
Manchester United opened the Premier League
season with a 1-0 victory over Tottenham at Old
Trafford on Saturday.
The right-back stabbed into the back of his own
net midway through the first half after a new-
look United side had made a shaky start.
David de Gea watched on as Sergio Romero made
his United debut, with Louis van Gaal stating that
the Spain goalkeeper is not in the right frame of
mind amid ongoing speculation over a move to
Real Madrid.
New signing Romero produced an assured display
- making a couple of fine, late saves - as
Tottenham were unable to build on an
encouraging start in which Christian Eriksen came
close to opening the scoring.
Van Gaal must have seen plenty of room for
improvement as he aims to turn United into title
contenders, but will be happy with three points
after losing at home to Swansea City on the
opening day last year.

Manchester United confirms sale of Angel Di Maria..

Manchester United can confirm that the sale of Angel Di Maria to Paris Saint-Germain is complete. The Argentina international was signed from Real Madrid for a British record transfer fee on 26 August 2014 and made 24 starts for the Reds, coming off the bench a further eight times. The midfielder scored four goals in total - three times in the Barclays Premier League and a late FA Cup strike at Yeovil Town. After representing Argentina at the Copa America, he did not participate on Tour 2015, presented by Aon, so his final appearance for the club came against Hull City when he was injured and withdrawn in the first half. Di Maria is now embarking on a new challenge and the club wishes him all the best for the future.
