Physical collapse

Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has launched a scathing attack on the club's board, accusing them of a severe lack of ambition in the market. The former midfielder believes manager Michael Carrick has been let down by poor summer recruitment, claiming the team is miles away from competing for the Premier League title following a disastrous start.

Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko is facing another spell on the sidelines after withdrawing from the Slovenia squad during the international break. The forward has suffered a recurrence of a shin issue that plagued him over the summer. He is set to undergo medical tests to determine the full extent of the problem and map out a specific recovery plan.
