Manchester United won't get much credit, if any, for their comeback win against Nottingham Forest at the weekend. A disastrous start to the match saw United fall two goals down in the opening four-and-a-half minutes, but the response was impressive as Erik ten Hag's side kept their cool and began to assert their dominance.

Forest were fortunate to take a two-goal lead and didn't offer much else but a late surge at the end of either half, and on another day it could quite easily have been a comfortable home win for United.
