Storylines

Manchester United: The years of waiting for Jadon Sancho to emerge as a ace at Old Trafford seem not to have ended with his arrival from Borussia Dortmund in the summer. A dull start to life in the Premier League means that the unseasoned winger finds himself the subject of conversation for all the wrong reasons. He could do with a performance to change the narrative head into the international break, not least after Gareth Southgate said that Sancho had not earned a spot in the England squad even after naming him in it.

“ Does he deserve to be in on these performances over the last few weeks ? Well, credibly not, ” Southgate said. “ But I think we feel we have invested in Jadon over a period of time, we believe he can get to a high flush. I would like some time with him to chat with him and help that summons that ‘s going on at Manchester United as good and I think for him to feel that we have belief in him at this point is a good message. ”

Everton: cipher better typifies Everton ‘s surprisingly impressive start to the season than Andros Townsend, a amazingly impressive performer since being picked up on a free from Crystal Palace. His reckoning of four goals and three assists is, you guessed it, amazingly impressive. With Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison battling injuries, the 30 class old may have to take on a bigger function in the Toffees offensive output at Old Trafford. surely he will give Alex Telles something to think about with and without the ball. Once a uneconomical high volume shot from range, Townsend seems to have redefined himself as a high-pressing, energy first gear menace who can win the ball back and do something dangerous with it. That could be full of life for Everton .
