"Then it is not my decision, the last. Until I am here, I will do my best and I am suffering more than them.""
"The man who calls the shots at Old Trafford these days was deep in thought. What was he thinking? Was another damaging defeat at what in theory is a top-six rival sinking in? Was he wondering how his new striker could go an entire game without touching the ball in the opposition box, less than 24 hours after the guy he binned off to bring in Benjamin Sesko marked his Napoli debut with a goal?"
Sir Jim Ratcliffe was observed deep in thought in the directors' box after Manchester United's 3-0 defeat by Manchester City. United's new striker hardly touched the ball in the opposition box, while the forward sold to fund Benjamin Sesko scored for Napoli on his debut.
