WHAT HAPPENED
We had to settle for a point in a game of few clear-cut chances against Manchester United on Saturday evening.
Both sides had their moments - and we came closest when Alex Lacazette hit the bar with a superb free kick – but neither were able to strike a decisive blow.
The big news prior to kick off was the absence of Bukayo Saka, Kieran Tierney and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from our teamsheet, but we soon settled into the game.
In truth, neither side imposed themselves to any great degree for much of first half, although Alex Lacazette tested David De Gea from outside the area, while Bernd Leno had to be alert to palm away a shot from Fred.
