Manchester United beat Swansea City 2-0 at Old Trafford to get a grip on the second place in the Premier League table.

Alexis Sanchez scored one and set up another for Romelu Lukaku as Manchester United enjoyed a productive night with a show of positivity.

Here is the player ratings as Jose Mourinho’s side ran out clear winners over Swansea.

David de Gea: 7

Wasn’t troubled much in the game in the first half before two trademark saves in the second. A deserved clean sheet.

Antonio Valencia: 6

Had a shape in his game and covered his place well.

WATCH: 7 Things That Will Happen If Umtiti Joins United

Victor Lindelof: 8

One of his best United performance. Showed the determination and made good interventions.

Chris Smalling: 6

Another decent performance by Smalling. He looked ensured alongside Lindelof.

Ashley Young: 7

Was a lot busier down the left in defence as well as in surging forward. Looked convincing and a shoutout to England manager for a reserved berth in the World Cup.

Nemanja Matic: 7

Paul Pogba: 7

Had a better game in an United shirt. Looked fresh and got into good spaces.

Was influential in getting into good pockets and influencing the attack. Unlucky not to score.

Jesse Lingard: 8

Set up Alexis Sanchez’s goal and linked up very well with the fellow forward players.

Alexis Sanchez: 9

A real solid performance from the Chilean. Set up Lukaku brilliantly before latching on to Lingard’s through ball and score.

Substitutions:

Marcus Rashford: 6

Looked lively after coming on as usual. Burst into space and created problems for Swansea.

Ander Herrera: 5

A return after injury for Herrera. He did fine in the midfield and kept the shape.

Scott McTominay: N/A

Did not have impact after coming in right at the 91st minute.

Philippe Coutinho finally completed his much anticipated move to Barcelona in a £145 million deal in January after having struggled through to leave Liverpool for almost two campaigns.

The Reds did, however, bring in Mohamed Salah from Roma in the summer last year, whose impressive start at Anfield has helped the Merseyside club’s faithful forget about the Brazilian’s masterclass.

And as it appears the fans seem to have taken a liking to the Egypt international to such an extent that one Reds’ fan posted a video that included a new chant about the ‘Egyptian King’, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, and, of course, a savage pillory on Coutinho.

The viral video took over the internet with its catchy lyrics that follow the tune of The Archies’ 1969 hit ‘Sugar, Sugar’ and goes “Salah, oh Mane Mane, Bobby [Roberto] Firmino and we sold Coutinhoooo!”

While the fans have been chanting the names of Liverpool’s ‘Fab three’ almost anyplace they get a chance to sing, Coutinho’s latest reaction says it all about how he feels of being included in the snappy chant.

The moment the reporter asked, “Do you like it?”, Coutinho rushed through to get away but didn’t fail to let his feelings known as he hastily said, “NO”.

Paul Pogba’s season has gone from the Frenchman being regarded as the heart and soul of Manchester United’s style, to recent speculation claiming that Jose Mourinho might be willing to show him the exit door.

This havoc comes merely two years into his prodigal record-breaking return to his boyhood club. Add to this the fact that he was supposed to lead the Red Devils for nearly a decade more.

However, the sense of unease and a general inconsistency in his performance ensures that the claims shouldn’t be disregarded just yet.

Now, to add further fuel to the speculation, United might have already sought Pogba’s replacement.

WATCH: 5 Times Jose Mourinho Fought With His Own Players

As per Spanish publication El Gol Digital, Jose Mourinho has identified Atletico Madrid star Saul Niguez as the replacement for the Frenchman. The source added that the club is willing to activate the humongous £131m release clause embedded in the 23-year-old’s contract.

RELATED:

The Spaniard has made incredible strides for club and country as of late, having aided Spain’s U21 side to the finals of the European Championship. In the same competition, he also secured the Golden Boot courtesy of his five goals.

At Atletico, a fairly decent total of 28 goals and 13 assists in 191 appearances have also been notched by the talented starlet. As of such, it would make sense that his parent club won’t settle for an amount any lesser than his release clause.

RELATED:

To add to this is the fact that he renewed his contract just last year, which penned him to the La Liga giants till 2026 in a rare nine-year-long deal. Thus, any attempt from the Old Trafford outfit will have to shatter quite a few figures.

However, one must consider the fact that the current unrest and alleged lack of rapport between Mourinho and Pogba might merely be a temporary thing, if true at all.

His recent lack of form aside, there is no denying that he is an incredible player at his best, and still has quite a few years to develop in the Premier League. In view of this, is splashing this much money for another youngster a wise choice?

Picture this: Imagine yourself renting out a whole page in your local newspaper, addressing the entire state in a letter that contains just two words. Struggling to do so? That’s probably because you’re not Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The striker is one of the most outrageous characters in the sport, and this latest incident only serves to further enhance that title. Ibra had been linked with a switch to LA Galaxy since 2016, but decided to have one last shot at another elite club at the highest level of the game.

He opted to move to Man Utd, and enjoyed a remarkable first season with the club, scoring 28 goals in 46 appearances. His goals helped the club lift the Community Shield, the EFL Cup, and the Europa League.

It might have been the perfect season had it not been cut short by a brutal injury. It kept him out of action for almost a year, and despite making a miraculously quick recovery, he soon withdrew his name from selection after realizing he wasn’t at his desired level of fitness.

WATCH: Players reaction to Ibrahimovic’s move to LA Galaxy

Over the past few months, the forward has been working hard to get back to his best, and has decided to finally complete the switch to LA Galaxy. A place renowned for its showbiz deserves the greatest showmen, and Zlatan is just that.

The striker decided to announce his arrival by renting out a whole page in the Los Angeles Times that only contained the words ‘Dear Los Angeles, you’re welcome’, along with the 36-year-old’s signature and the LA Galaxy logo.

He also had a massive image of himself roaring in a Galaxy jersey on another page of the daily, and he certainly showed off his lion-like confidence in his first interview since joining the club.

When asked if the city of Los Angeles was big enough to handle him, Ibra, in typical fashion, simply replied: ‘If not, I’ll make it bigger!’

Manchester United fans could be in for a treat if reports that surfaced regarding the leaked 2018-19 away kit turn out to be true.

According to a report in the Footy Headlines, the upcoming away kit has shades of gold in a navy coloured jersey. The collar and the below portion of the sleeve has shades of gold besides the club crest, sponsor logo of Chevrolet and the kit logo of Adidas.

This is a blast from the past sort of a jersey, as the last time the club sported gold shades jersey was in 2001-02. Back then, it was a classic reversible kit that was full gold, with the other side being white and black.

The latest jersey is a modern day classic, and it has many fans already drooling over the same.

Over the last few seasons, Manchester United have emerged as one of the biggest spenders in European football.

Under Jose Mourinho alone, a transfer bill of £300 million and counting has been recorded at the Mancunian club.

Despite that, success in the form of major silverware is yet to be found. With the Premier League title well out of their hands already, United even saw Champions League football go for a toss, as the club suffered a 2-1 defeat to Sevilla mid-week.

That loss, in particular, has led Mourinho and company into heavy criticism, and plans to amend these flaws have already been floating about.

Now, Romelu Lukaku, himself a massive £75 million arrival, has given a significant update regarding United’s spending plans in the coming summer. As per Daily Mail, Mourinho and his striker are ‘looking forward’ to new players arriving at Old Trafford.

Already, the names being considered in the shortlist are believed to be those of Ivan Perisic, Fred, and Blaise Matuidi. The source also added that Anthony Martial might be on his way out to accommodate some of these transfers.

What United Fans Are Saying About Lukaku After Sevilla Defeat
Manchester United's Romelu Lukaku celebrates scoring their second goal.

Reuters/Jason Cairnduff

Romelu Lukaku has only been at United for one season, but he has probably seen every single side to the club’s fans already.

Act like you don’t care and they will never get off your back about it. Fight for them, and make no mistake about it, they will fight for you.

Having initially made a brilliant start to life at Old Trafford, Lukaku underwent a spell of poor form midway through the season.

He hadn’t exactly endeared himself to the fans completely yet, so it was natural that he was getting some stick for his performances.

However, what fans were most disturbed about, was his unwillingness to celebrate when he scored during that rough patch.

Times have changed since then, and the 24-year-old is back to his best once more. He has been brilliant in recent games, rediscovering his scoring touch as well as celebrating every single goal that goes in with admirable enthusiasm that says a lot about his passion.

Manchester United Favourites To Sign Robert Lewandowski

Manchester United have emerged as the top contenders to sign Bayern Munich superstar Robert Lewandowski, according to latest reports in Germany.

The Polish international recently dumped his former agent Cezary Kucharski after 10 years of partnership to bring Pini Zahavi on-board, which suggests the Bayern Munich star is definitely keen to secure a move away from the Allianz Arena.

Real Madrid has been rumoured to be the most likely destination for the 29-year-old, but ESPN journalist Mark Lovell has now revealed via Kicker that in reality, things are completely different.

The German magazine claimed that Lewandowski could be headed towards the Premier League instead of La Liga, as English heavyweights Manchester United are ‘the only club’ to have approached Bayern for their superstar’s signature.

Lovell tweeted: “Manchester United are the only club to have made an approach for Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski while Real Madrid dither according to Kicker in Germany.”

Meanwhile, Los Blancos are not yet completely out of the race to land the prolific marksman, with Chelsea also keeping a close look at the player’s situation.

However, as per ex-Madrid defender Christoph Metzelder, the forward is too valuable to the Bundesliga Champions, and thus, any deal is highly unlikely, if not impossible.

Metzelder said: “There isn’t a pain barrier [on the transfer fee] because Robert Lewandowski is irreplaceable. There isn’t an adequate replacement available on the market. Therefore, they will not allow him to leave. Normally, Bayern do not give up their top players and they do not need the money.”
