Stadium	Old Trafford (opened 1910) Capacity: 74,879 Pitch Size: 105m x 68m Manchester United have been steadily improving Old Trafford since the war when the original stadium was bombed. The stadium re-opened in 1949 after a 10 year period where they couldn't play games at the ground. In subsequent years a roof would be added & stands rebuilt. Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s the stadium was improved yet further and the word is that they club intend to take the capacity to close to 90,000 in the future.
Recent History	Manchester United are commonly regarded as one of, if not the biggest football clubs in the world. After a period of disappointment, Alex Ferguson arrived at Old Trafford and set about building a period of unrivalled success in English football. In 1990 Ferguson won the FA Cup with United following a replay against Crystal Palace. The word is that had he lost that game, the Scotsman would have been dismissed. That success was followed by the Cup Winners Cup. In 98/99 United won the treble (Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup). Prior to that they won the title in the inaugural Premier League trophy in 1992/93. They followed that with titles in 1993/94, 1995/96, 1996/97, 1999/2000, 2000/2001, 2002/2003, 2006/2007, 2008/2009, 2010/2011 & 2012/2013. Further trophies would come in the shape of the Champions League (2007/08), FA Cup (1995/96 & 2003/04), League Cup (1991/92, 2005/06, 2008/09 & 2009/10), Intercontinental Cup (1999), FIFA Club World Cup (2008) & the European Super Cup (1991). Needless to say that the post Ferguson era has not delivered on the same scale. Failed managers have included David Moyes, Van Gaal (despite an FA Cup win) & Mourinho (albeit winning the League Cup & the Europa League), Ole Gunnar Solskjær & Ralf Rangnick. Will the Erik ten Hag era prove more successful?

A miserable 2023/24 season led to Manchester United’s worst ever Premier League finish. The Red Devils finished eighth and they would have missed out on European qualification having not won the FA Cup trophy. None of the top-10 sides scored fewer goals than Man Utd (58), who registered a record 14 Premier League defeats. Injuries played a part, but it was also the questionable tactics that led to a negative goal difference (-1). Raphael Varane has been the only starter to part ways with the club after failing to convince at Old Trafford. He has been replaced by prodigious defender Lenny Yoro, who, at 18, lacks experience and may need time to adapt to his new team. Bologna’s top goalscorer Joshua Zirkzee also joined Man Utd after helping his team qualify for the Champions League. Despite their poor season, Erik Ten Hag has been given another opportunity to bring Man Utd back to top-four spots. However, luck does not seem to be on his side, as Yoro and Rasmus Hojlund will be sidelined for three and two months, respectively, and will miss the first few weeks of the upcoming campaign. Bruno Fernandes, Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo showed glimpses of what they can offer on the pitch and Ten Hag is aware that the potential is there to be harnessed, with prodigies Yoro and Zirkzee adding more spark to the mix. Manchester United must improve in the final third. Last season’s attacking numbers were abysmal and the fact that they sat 15th in Opta’s "Expected Points" table says it all.
