While the Paul Pogba-Jose Mourinho circus makes for great entertainment for rivals and neutrals alike, Manchester United fans will be hoping their squad can put the drama behind them and claim an important three points against West Ham on Saturday.
United's 1-1 draw with Wolves followed by being dumped out of the Carabao Cup has the Red Devils aching for a much-needed win to restore some semblance of momentum, but it is unlikely to be an easy task.
West Ham have been playing well of late after a poor start to the season, beating Everton at Goodison, holding Chelsea at home and thumping Macclesfield Town 8-0 in the Carabao Cup.
