Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Manchester United are just a point off the Premier League leaders and local rivals Manchester City, but supporters are certainly not completely happy with the way things are going this season.
Louis van Gaal's team may boast the best defensive record in the division, conceding just 10 goals, but they are hardly playing in the vibrant attacking manner that fans are used to, despite £300million of spending since he arrived.
The side dominate possession but fail to do much with it, scoring just 20 goals in their 14 matches this season, 10 fewer than league-leading City.
The form of captain Wayne Rooney is a considerable concern, while Anthony Martial has cooled off after a hot start.
Fellow summer signing Memphis Depay can barely even get in the team.
United are now being linked with a host of attacking players to keep their title bid on track.
Here we take a look at the players that have been linked with United in recent weeks - some rather more fanciful than others.
We also look at the players who are at risk of getting the chop by Van Gaal.
