MORNING, MAN UNITED FANS
Football fans across England were yesterday greeted by the news that they may be able to see their teams again next month.
But United supporters were not among them.
With Trafford set to be moved into Tier 3 at the end of the current lockdown, fans will still not be admitted into the Theatre of Dreams.
Clubs in Tier 2 areas will see 2,000 fans allowed in, although singing and hugging will be prohibited, and masks will need to be worn.
And Manchester United’s December 5 trip to West Ham is set to be the first Premier League match since March to have fans in attendance.
For now, however, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is focussed on this weekend’s trip to St Mary’s to face Southampton.
And the Saints’ England defender Ryan Bertrand has already pinpointed two Red Devils stars that he’ll have to be wary of.
He said: “Manchester United are a great club with great individuals, it will be a tough game for us.
“They have shown some inconsistency but when they get it right they have had some amazing results.
“The threat on the counter is their biggest threat. They have many great individuals, Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes seem to be their top performers so far.”
