Manchester United fans to function. The Red Devils will be hosted by Burnley on Tuesday (22:15) and could, please note, rise to first place in the table for the first time since the fourth round of the 2017/18 season. Just a point will suffice for that, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side will aim for three of those, five days before the big meeting against Liverpool at Anfield. Will the season end in a first championship since 2012/13? Another vision for the date.
Solshiar of course is in no hurry to celebrate: “No one will remember what the league table looked like on January 12, 2021.” Professionally, the Norwegian coach will get Edinson Cavani back on the squad, after the delusional suspension he suffered from the English association following a post on the social network.
“He trained well while he was suspended. He is ready. He gives us another option on offense. I’m glad he’s back, that’s why we signed him,” Solchiar said of him. In contrast, Paul Pogba, Victor Lindloff, Eric Bay and Luke Shaw are in doubt for a deal.
