After consulting with fans, #MUFC will stop playing music 15mins before kick-off + let the atmosphere build naturally. Good back + forth between Stretford End + Arsenal supporters there, before walk-out music kicks in.

Darren Fletcher speaking to a very capable Peterborough team after seeing his team win 1-0 to progress to the fourth round of the FA Youth Cup. The visitors came into it second half, No 10 Patryk Sykut impressive. Goal by JJ Gabriel, aged 15, the difference. #MUFC

Hugely frustrating result for #MUFC, with several players dropping to the floor at the final whistle. They pinned Arsenal back the majority of second half, had many shots, but only had Mbeumo’s header as a real chance. Still, deserved more. Cunha best player on pitch.

Wow, what a way for Amorim to say goodbye to Sporting. His team go ahead in the 90th minute with a great strike by Harder (another substitute). Then Harder adds another to make it 4-2 on 95mins. 11 wins out of 11. Amorim submerged by his players. Wild scenes. #MUFC

Ruben Amorim leading training drill at National Stadium Bukit Jalil last night. Ten outfield players practicing passing moves to try to score against a goalkeeper. Looked like Amorim wanted all players to get a touch. Game against ASEAN All Stars kicks off in 3hrs. #MUFC

Bizarre equaliser for Everton. Shoving match between Ndiaye, Fernandes, Mount + O’Brien after Fernandes takes a swipe at Ndiaye. Everton keep attacking + score when Amad hits the ball against Heaven to screw into bottom corner. #MUFC

Charlie Owen, lead physical performance coach, + Ed Leng, head of physical performance, show squad new cooling jacket, a co-trial with adidas. Expected to be used at 2026 World Cup, players wearing them after warm-up + half-time. Surely a wardrobe staple too. #MUFC

#MUFC attack looking very flexible + fast. Mbeumo at the heart. His first-time pass releases Amad, who is tugged by Tarkowski to win a penalty. Fernandes so cool to convert. Lots of rotation with Cunha. Almost a front four in moments.

Hojlund gets a second. Amad’s shot brushed off him, diverting the ball onto the far corner. Stadium announcer gives it to Amad, who celebrates like goal was his, but Hojlund definitely claiming it. #MUFC
