Manchester United's next six Premier League fixtures compared to Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool FC and Man City
We are two games into the Premier League season and already there is signs of things which need to be worked on at Manchester United.
The opening-day victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers masked a lot of issues, particularly going forward. On Saturday, the Reds were not so lucky as Tottenham Hotspur punished United for their wasteful approach in front of goal.
Fortunately, we remain in the early stages of the campaign and there is still plenty of time for Erik ten Hag to iron out any issues he has come across. However, after the next six fixtures we will have a greater understanding of what sort of season United are set for.
