Your support makes all the difference.Manchester United head to West Bromwich Albion on Sunday, looking to regain second place in the Premier League table. Leicester City jumped over Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team with their late win over Liverpool on Saturday, but the Red Devils will move back into the top two with a point or better here.
United are just one goal short of 50 for the season as the league’s top scorers this season, though they have been inconsistent of late winning only one of their last four in the top flight. Last time out in the league they drew 3-3 with Everton after a last-minute equaliser, which saw criticism head the way of goalkeeper David de Gea.
