Southampton 0 Manchester United 1 (Manchester United)

Manchester United earned the first away victory of the season by defeating Southampton 1-0 in the Premier League's early Saturday game.

Back to Back wins… Prior to the match, the Saints had rescued four points from losing positions in their previous two outings and were looking to repeat a turnaround. Armstrong 63), A. United stormed out of the blocks after the interval, heaping early pressure on the home side and were rewarded 10 minutes following the restart. However, the best opportunity fell to Armel Bella-Kotchap. A Diogo Dalot cross caused mayhem in the penalty area as the Southampton keeper Gavin Bazunu and his defence somehow frantically denied Bruno Fernandes the chance to head home, before thwarting Anthony Elanga, Fernandes again and then Christian Eriksen – all from around the six-yard box.

Fernandes netted with a composed strike early in the second half and the Portugal midfielder’s first goal this season lifted United into sixth place ahead of the rest of the weekend’s matches.

Manchester United forward, Cristiano Ronaldo is edging closer to returning to his boyhood club, Sporting CP, according to Marca. Ronaldo had preferred to.

Instead, however, he joined United, where the team has underperformed and missed out on the Champions League this season.

Adam Armstrong: A number of eye-catching dribbles to move away from pressure and carry ball forward. He’s a top player but they still need more. Casemiro is not going to change that fact. You get to 37 years of age, you’re not going to go sprinting away from people. Che Adams: Given a start after his match-winning double from the bench against Leicester. Won a free-kick after a cheeky nutmeg on McTominay and showed some nice turns away from pressure 7 James Ward-Prowse: Like watching a game of chess as he battled the similarly silky Eriksen. The ploy worked to perfection in the 55th minute. Tyrell Malacia: Tenacious presence at left-back despite majority of Southampton coming down his side.

Manchester United headed south in buoyant mood following Monday night's morale-boosting victory over Liverpool at Old Trafford. Ten Hag named the same side ...

Three days later, Erik ten Hag's side welcome Arsenal to Old Trafford on Super Sunday, live on Sky Sports from 4pm (kick-off 4.30pm). The Argentine won five out of five aerial duels against Southampton and had a 100 per cent ground success. All of a sudden there's competition for places again - a positive selection headache to have. Much has been made of Martinez's height at 5ft 9in, but the stats suggest there has been a fuss about nothing. A first clean sheet of the season will have delighted Ten Hag. Three points against rivals Liverpool on Monday night and the £70m arrival of Brazil midfielder Casemiro meant they travelled to Southampton on Saturday lunchtime full of hope and optimism. Harry Maguire started on the bench again after being dropped against Liverpool, with the United boss warning pre-match that the England defender will not play just because he is the captain of the club. United were probing and their pressure was rewarded in the 55th minute. Ten Hag's side controlled possession for large periods but Southampton continued to look dangerous on the break. A hard-fought win at St Mary's showed they are capable of producing it. Elanga then thought he was in on a goal minutes later after a quick one-two with Fernandes, but Bella-Kotchap made a superb last-ditch tackle to deny him. Scott McTominay's effort was routinely saved by Buzunu at the near post, before Varane headed over the bar from the resulting corner.

Dalot’s pinpoint assist proved to be match-winning for United at a key point of the game. Perhaps most impressively of all, he audibly dictated when his teammates needed to tighten up through the centre. United’s new signing only entered the pitch with 10 minutes to go, and he was absolutely everywhere! Saints couldn’t deal with the sheer numbers in the box as Fernandes was left wide open on the edge for his magic moment. The Portuguese right-back stayed composed, recovered possession and offered a physical presence throughout. The 23-year-old’s crunching tackle down the wing gave him an early boost of confidence and he never looked back. Another Elanga run inside set the goal in motion by freeing up space for Dalot, Sancho and Bruno in one fell swoop. Bruno’s ability to link passing moves together brought the likes of Sancho and Marcus Rashford into the game when they would have otherwise been completely isolated. There was a 15-minute spell just after half-time where our manager’s intelligence changed the course of the game. His calmness on the ball and ability to pick a simple pass also aided us in some tight positions as Southampton overloaded the flanks. He also showed real desire to bomb forward and aid the attack. Fernandes’s lethal winner sealed the win, in what was his second consecutive match wearing the captain's armband.

Osimhen would be a logical option to replace Ronaldo quickly if he leaves for Napoli. For now, though, it appears to be somewhat of a non-starter. And he is pushing for United to allow him to depart if a suitable offer arrives, whether Osimhen is involved in a deal or not. And Erik ten Hag is reportedly happy for him to walk out the exit door if he can make two attacking signings in the final five days of the summer transfer window. With United chasing Ajax's Antony, most recently seeing a £76m bid rejected, an £85m plus move for Osimhen wouldn't be financially viable.

Casemiro Reacts To Making His Man Utd Debut Vs Southampton (Independent Newspaper Nigeria)

New signing Casemiro shared a short message on social media after making his Manchester United debut in Saturday's 1-0 win over Southampton at St Mary's.

Reflecting on Casemiro’s first Reds outing, Ten Hag said: “It was quite good for him to see the Premier League, it’s a different style. Having made a positive first impression on his first outing in United colours, the 30-year-old shared a short message on his Twitter account reflecting on his first Premier League outing. He showed signs of terrific leadership, as well as producing a brilliant block to thwart a goal-bound effort.

Man United are inching ever-close to a whopping £85million deal for Ajax star Antony, a transfer that could create a £164m domino effect for Chelsea.

So, Antony to Man United, Ziyech to Ajax and Leao/Gordon to Chelsea could be the transfer domino effect to keep an eye on in these final knockings. With a move for Anthony Gordon seeming more unlikely by the minute They initially wanted a reunion with Ziyech either on a cut-price deal or loan, but Chelsea's knowledge of the money being received in the Antony deal has altered their stance. Whilst the Amsterdam-based club didn't want to sell, the 22-year-old's actions in recent times, coupled with the prospect of receiving an Eredivisie transfer record fee for one of their players, reluctantly meant that a 'green light' was eventually given despite all the doubt.

Man Utd transfers: Antony & Depay signings would create 5 exciting ... (GiveMeSport)

With Manchester United closing in on Antony and linked to Memphis Depay, their attack could look much improved…

Ten Hag experimented with a false nine setup in the absence of Martial in United’s defeat to Brighton. Ten Hag hasn’t resorted to a front two with wingers just yet, but the season is long and pragmatism sometimes prevails. With Martial’s fitness already proving a concern and Ronaldo’s future in the air, signing Antony and Depay gives United a wealth of options in attack. The Dutchman has become much more well rounded since leaving United and played some of his best football at Lyon in a more central role. The Portuguese international has an eye for goal and needs the licence to stay forward, press and play killer balls. Signing Depay would solve that and give United a similar profile of player to rely upon during a long season. The Dutch forward failed to live up to his potential at United from 2014 to 2017, but has since rebuilt his career and is available for a transfer this summer. In our first configuration, Depay would have to make an impact from the bench. Dropping in and allowing Depay and Antony the room to finish the job in attack could – with time – prove effective. Above all, signing two exciting attackers like Depay and Antony gives Ten Hag the ability to play more of a front three, especially in possession, and take the game to opponents more consistently. Martial has completely revived his United career under the Dutchman, Sancho has began to show more consistent glimpses of his talent as a left-winger and Antony would do a similar job from the right as an inverted winger. The Ajax winger has been linked with a move to United ever since Erik ten Hag was announced as the club’s new manager at the back end of last season, and his interest in reuniting with Antony was clear early on in the summer.

CRISTIANO RONALDO could leave Manchester United before the summer transfer window slams shut on Thursday.

[Cristiano Ronaldo](/latest/cristiano-ronaldo) was furious when [Manchester United](/latest/manchester-united-fc) players were told achieving a top-four finish for the season was the Glazers’ target, according to reports. Undoubtedly, for us, he's very important." The Portugal international has spent most of the summer transfer window hoping for a move away. "I hope he stays with us, because he is a great player, one of the best of all time. "I hope he stays, because he is a player who gives you leadership, gives you a lot of goals, is a winner and is very important to us. "The illusion of being able to play with him again...he knows the respect I have for him. But Ronaldo is unhappy with the state of United’s squad and that is one of the reasons why he’s seeking a new challenge elsewhere. With the Glazers content with just Champions League qualification, Ronaldo decided he ‘did not want to suffer a season of Europa League football under executives who’d told the squad that their target for the 2022-23 Premier League campaign was a fourth-place finish’. The veteran feels United sold him a ‘story’ of winning the Premier League title together, and that him returning to Old Trafford instead of leaving for Manchester City would help the squad achieve their aim. Ronaldo seems to have different ambitions and is believed to be unhappy at the lack of winners within United’s squad. Ronaldo informed United back in June that he wants out, with the veteran eager to play at the highest level as he approaches the final years of his career. However, his goals weren’t enough to propel the Red Devils into the Champions League - with the club qualifying for the Europa League with a sixth-placed finish instead.

Man Utd may give Antony a world-class partner in crime before ... (Daily Express)

MANCHESTER UNITED are set to make Antony their fifth signing of the summer transfer window.

[Manchester United](/latest/manchester-united-fc) appear likely to sign Antony, with reports on Sunday claiming the Ajax star is set to move to Old Trafford in a huge £85million deal. And with Antony poised to go on the right of Ten Hag’s attack, Hakimi would be a sensational partner in crime for the Brazil international. He was brilliant in that position for Inter Milan prior to his move to PSG last summer, proving to be a key asset at both ends of the pitch as the Serie A giants won the Scudetto.
