Manchester United supporters will be desperate for interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy will be able to get a tune out of his inherited squad against Leicester City.
He may not be in line for the Man United role on a permanent basis - that falling instead to Sporting CP's Ruben Amorim - but a reaction following Erik ten Hag's sacking is the bare minimum required.
This is the true task entrusted to Van Nistelrooy. The club's former striker has at least some pressure lifted in that his opportunity will come in the Carabao Cup, as opposed to the Premier League.
But given the start to the season in all competitions, no matches can be taken for granted. Unfortunately for him, Van Nistelrooy will face the same adversity Ten Hag did.
