We are only 90 minutes into the season but such is the microscope Manchester United exists under, there is plenty of attention already focussed on their Premier League start.

The Reds were opening weekend winners, if not convincing ones, as Raphael Varane's header proved enough to squeak past a tigerish Wolves.

Erik ten Hag will have been less than impressed by his side's performance, which flattered to deceive, and will be seeking answers ahead of a tea-time trip to Tottenham on Saturday.

Perhaps the biggest selection question is in midfield, with United at times over-run and over-powered by Gary O'Neill's men on Monday night.
