We are just aching for the first win and then we can kick on. Both have played together 20 times for Brazil, with the team winning 18 of these matches, drawing once and losing once. “He probably thought he was going to be leaving and it has been a difficult period for him.” It's been a record summer of spending by Premier League clubs and Manchester United are certainly one of them.

I would love to have added five or six players which would create competition and improve the players we have.” Ten Hag has a new £85 million striker to launch at Arsenal on Sunday, and a small degree of momentum to propel him into the season although it still feels fragile as a new kind of team comes together.
