Manchester United and Arsenal face off at Old Trafford in their first game of the new Premier League season. What are the keys to the game?

Matheus Cunha, like Mbeumo, had a personal best season as a goal scorer, and did it on a bad Wolves team. Haven’t seen much from him in preseason and will need to adapt quickly to playing his way in this team, where we already have Bruno Fernandes playing tricky, high-risk passes.

Amorim has changed United's pre-match routine for home games and they will no longer arrive at Old Trafford four hours before kick-off, a measure introduced by Erik ten Hag in 2022. The players will instead maximise the facilities at United's new £50million hub at Carrington that opened last week.

Manchester United have typically gone for players abroad, but this deal should excite fans who have been glued up to the Premier league after impressing mightily for Brentford in recent years. The Cameroon international has excelled with a level of consistency, being the main man for The Bees, taking up that role when Ivan Toney departed the club.

The Premier League season may not have started yet, but in any given soccer-loving group chat at any given time, there is probably a conversation about who Manchester United's next manager might be. It is not just innocent offseason fodder that maintains the bonds of friendship,
