Manchester United news

Now that the dust has settled on Manchester United's first victory at Anfield in almost a decade, attention turns to what the Red Devils have found the hardest thing to do in the last two years: build some momentum. As satisfying as Sunday's 2-1 win on Merseyside was, it was far from the only time United have overcome low expectations and pulled off a big result against a top team in recent times.

Manchester United could surprise everyone by mounting a Premier League title challenge this season, according to Rene Meulensteen, who was part of Sir Alex Ferguson's staff during six dominant years between 2007 and 2013. Ruben Amorim's side have put together back-to-back league wins for the first time under the Portuguese and have enjoyed statement victories over Chelsea and Liverpool in recent weeks.

A former Premier League star has recommended Diego Simeone as an ideal replacement for Ruben Amorim, as the Argentine coach 'would have Manchester United working like mad dogs'. Amorim's position as United boss had come under the scanner due to the club's poor start to the 2025-26 campaign, however, the Red Devils have salvaged some pride with back-to-back Premier League wins over Sunderland and Liverpool.

Marcus Rashford could return to Manchester United next summer if Ruben Amorim leaves the club by then, according to former Red Devils coach Rene Meulensteen. Rashford left his boyhood club this year to join Barcelona on a loan deal after he was included in Amorim's 'bomb squad' during pre-season, alongside several other unwanted United stars.

Liverpool will be reminded of the Premier League's multi-ball rules after multiple breaches of the system during their late loss to Manchester United at Anfield on Sunday. The rules on how balls are given to players after going out of play changed in 2022, with ball boys and girls no longer allowed to throw them to players, as they are instead positioned on cones, with stars expected to pick them up themselves.

Manchester United captain Peter Schmeichel has urged Ruben Amorim to remove Bruno Fernandes from the captaincy role, as the former goalkeeper questioned the Portuguese midfielder's body language on the pitch. United are on a high following their brilliant win over rivals Liverpool in the Premier League last Sunday as the Red Devils picked up their first win at Anfield in almost a decade.

After scoring the winning goal in Manchester United's dramatic 2-1 win over Liverpool at Anfield, Harry Maguire is the new star of 442oons latest parody video that's inspired by the 2025 KPop Demon Hunters song titled 'Soda Pop'. With cameos from Sir Alex Ferguson, referee Michael Oliver and more, this one's a must-watch for all Premier League fans!

Premier League title winner Danny Simpson has, during an exclusive interview with GOAL, explained why he will be avoiding a boxing match with ex-Manchester United team-mate Wayne Rooney. Simpson has stepped into the ring, while Rooney is a big fight fan, but no clash will be organised there due to close friends occupying very different weight classes.

Manchester United cult hero Diego Forlan has been hospitalised after suffering a partially-collapsed lung and three broken ribs during an appearance for a veterans team in his native Uruguay. The 46-year-old former striker was involved in a sickening collision that saw him require urgent treatment on the field before being rushed to a nearby medical facility.

Everton have been hit with more injury problems as star defender Jarrad Branthwaite requires surgery to fix an ongoing issue. Branthwaite has not appeared for the Toffees this season after sustaining a hamstring injury during pre-season training. While the club initially described it as a 'minor niggle' back in July, they have now confirmed a more serious lay-off.

Fulham are reportedly keen to renew manager Marco Silva's contract in a bid to secure his long-term future. The 48-year-old has previously been linked with clubs including Manchester United and Juventus, but the Cottagers are eager for him to continue in west London. Silva's current contract is set to expire at the end of the season and currently contains a release clause set at £15 million ($20.1m).

Wayne Rooney admitted that he initially had doubts about Manchester United's summer capture of Bryan Mbeumo but has since been proven wrong. Mbeumo scored his second Premier League goal for United on Sunday as the Red Devils edged out rivals Liverpool in a nail-biting clash at Anfield. This was the first time United registered back-to-back wins in the league since Ruben Amorim took charge of the club.

Ruben Amorim hit back at critics who claimed that he would be sacked sooner rather than later as the Portuguese manager sent out a fiery message after Manchester United's crucial 2-1 victory over Liverpool on Sunday at Anfield. This was the first time since Amorim took charge at Old Trafford in November 2024 that United have won back-to-back Premier League matches.
