Manchester United are bringing back the spirit of Fergie Time as Jose Mourinho's score nine Premier League goals after the 76th minute so far this season... many more than anyone else

For those who watched Manchester United in the 1990s and 2000s, there always seemed a certain inevitability in the closing stages that they would score.

Under Sir Alex Ferguson, United made a habit of grabbing a last ditch winner or equaliser, often in copious amounts of added time - most famously their double in the 1999 Champions League final.

Since Ferguson's retirement and United's search for an identity since, this habit has fallen by the wayside - but now seems to be on its way back.
