Leicester 2-2 Manchester United: Harry Maguire slots stoppage-time equaliser for 10-man Foxes after Juan Mata nets twice for wasteful Red Devils

Some context: after 19 games last season, the half-way point, they had 36 points and were sixth. After last night, at the same stage, they have 42 points and are second.

Sometimes they may not look like a Manchester United teams in terms of style, though often they do. And in terms of serious intent, they are getting back to what they were.

There is always a but, of course.
