As the world's biggest and richest club, Manchester United reach a global fanbase.

Part of the attraction for fans around the world has been the football luminaries, such as George Best and Sir Bobby Charlton, who have graced the Old Trafford turf in a Manchester United shirt over the years.

Recently, Manchester United have continued to attract or develop some of the game's biggest names, with England stalwarts such as Paul Scholes and David Beckham having been regular fixtures in the Reds line-up.

The Manchester United team, past and present, reads like a who's who of world football.

It is only fitting that a great team should grace a great stadium. And with Old Trafford's recent development and the closure of Wembley, the ground is easily the largest in English football, holding in excess of 60,000 fans.

Despite this capacity, the demand to see United in action is so great that tickets are hard to come by.

But it isn't only Manchester United fans who flock to Old Trafford. The standard of the ground is such that it regularly hosts high-profile games, most notably, the Champions League Final and Great Britain rugby league games.

Rock fans have also made use of the Reds's facilities, watching a number of high-profile acts at the ground.

But it's football that will forever be synonymous with the Reds famous ground - and with good reason.

The last decade has seen Manchester United under the shrewd leadership of Sir Alex Ferguson maintain a virtual stranglehold on the Premiership crown.

Manchester United has won the league no fewer than 18 times in their history. They are also Cup Kings too, winning the FA cup 11 times, the league cup 4 times, as well as winning the European Super Cup, European Cup Winner's Cup, and 3 times being crowned European Cup champions.

Manchester United has long become a name associated with success both on and off the pitch.

As club profits continue to grow, Manchester United have become one of the richest sports clubs on the planet.

With supporters club branches on every continent, it's hard to go any where in the world and not see somebody wearing the famous red shirt of Manchester United.

Hope Alien will sticky this info later.
Though written in 2006 so no Roy Keane yet.

Ex-United players that have moved on to become managers.

Written by Simon Stone (MARCH 22, 2006)

STEVE BRUCE (1987-1996): Took his first steps in management with Sheffield United in 1998, then swiftly moved on to Huddersfield, Wigan and Crystal Palace. Left Selhurst Park in acrimonious fashion after Birmingham targeted him as the replacement for Trevor Francis in 1991. Took Blues into the Premier League but after a heavy FA Cup defeat is struggling to keep his job.

MARTIN POWELL (1971-1983): Stylish and well-respected Scotland centre-half whose authoritative nature appeared to make him a natural for the management game. Lasted four months at Burnley.

SIR BOBBY CHARLTON (1956-1973): Arguably the finest English player of all time proved to be an unmitigated disaster as a manager. Claimed he was not given the resources to make a decent job of it at Preston but was never lured back into management following his departure after a single season.

STEVE COPPELL (1975-1983): After a knee injury cut his playing career short at just 28, Coppell turned his attention to management. Steered Crystal Palace into the FA Cup final and then third place in the old First Division - the Eagles' highest ever - the following season. It was the first of four stints in charge at Selhurst Park in a career which has seen him move to Manchester City (for only six games), Brentford and Brighton. Now at Reading and about to steer the Royals into the top flight for the first time.

PADDY CRERAND (1962-1971): A key figure in United's 1968 European Cup triumph, Crerand lasted five months at Northampton before getting the bullet and, like Charlton, never managed again.

MARK HUGHES (1983-86, 1988-95): Hughes was never tipped as a manager by Ferguson but has taken to the game with ease. Took Wales into the Euro 2004 play-offs. Took over at Blackburn shortly afterwards, steering Rovers away from danger in his first season. Currently in contention for a Champions League spot.

BRIAN KIDD (1967-1974): Another European Cup winner who proved to be a poor manager. Got itchy feet in 1998 after spending seven years as Sir Alex Ferguson's highly-rated assistant. Took command at Blackburn but dismissed six months later.

BRYAN ROBSON (1981-94): United's inspirational leader under Ron Atkinson and Ferguson. There are two schools of thought on his stint at Middlesbrough - he either spent lots and achieved little (relegation and two losing finals) or he laid the platform for the Teessiders to become an established Premiership outfit. Kept West Brom up in extraordinary fashion last year but back in trouble again this season.

GORDON STRACHAN (1984-89): Scotland international who won the FA Cup with United and the title of the pre-Premiership era with Leeds. Sacked after five years at when the Sky Blues lost top-flight status, then enjoyed success at Southampton - reaching the 2003 Cup final - before resigning to spend more time with his family. Now at Celtic, has recovered from a humiliating Champions League exit to Artmedia Bratislava, and, after winning his first trophy on Sunday in the CIS Insurance Cup, is set to clinch the Scottish Premier League.

NOBBY STILES (1960-71): Along with Charlton, one of only two Englishmen to have won the World Cup and European Cup, he replaced his former England and United team-mate at Preston, with limited success. After a brief stint in Vancouver, returned to England to take over as manager of West Brom. Sacked after five months, having gained just three wins.

Manchester United interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hopes forwards Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez can "step up" as the Red Devils could be without nine senior players against Crystal Palace.

Ander Herrera, Jesse Lingard and Juan Mata were injured during the first half of Sunday's match against Liverpool.

Marcus Rashford played most of the 0-0 draw with an ankle injury and is a doubt for Wednesday's fixture.

Teenagers Angel Gomes, Tahith Chong and Jimmy Garner will be involved.

Gomes, 18, is the only one of the academy trio to have made a Premier League appearance.

As well as Herrera, Lingard and Mata, United will be without defenders Phil Jones, Antonio Valencia and Matteo Darmian, midfielder Nemanja Matic and forward Anthony Martial at Selhurst Park.

Argentina centre-back Marcos Rojo, who has made just three appearances this season, will also be involved after returning from a long-term injury.

"There are not a lot of positives," said Solskjaer, who is waiting to see how Rashford responds to treatment on his ankle.

Solskjaer told MUTV the England striker's injury was not made worse by playing the full game and it was "not as bad as we first feared".

"We're going to work on him for as long as we can to see if he gets ready," he said.

The Norwegian said Wednesday's game gives Lukaku and Sanchez "a chance to play to their potential".

"The two get on very well," he said. "Hopefully Alexis and Romelu can step up. We will have a good team out on the pitch."

Martial was injured during the home defeat by Paris St-Germain on 12 February, and Solskjaer said the Frenchman could return for Saturday's home Premier League game against Southampton.

Lingard replaced Mata during Sunday's game but lasted just 18 minutes before suffering a recurrence of a hamstring injury.

"Jesse was eager, ticked all the boxes, maybe it was a couple of days early," said Solskjaer. "It was Liverpool. He was desperate to play."

United go into Wednesday's game fifth in the table, a point behind Arsenal in fourth.

Former Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini scored the winner for Shandong Luneng in a 1-0 victory on his Chinese Super League debut.

He turned and scored from close range in the 50th minute of the season opener against Beijing Renhe.

The Belgian, 31, completed a move to Shandong last month after five and a half seasons at Old Trafford.

He scored 22 goals in 177 games for United, after joining them from Everton for £27m in 2014.

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino says if expectations change at the club they may need to find "another magic guy" to deliver regular Premier League and Champions League titles.
.
.
The Argentine has accepted that challenging Liverpool and Manchester City for the title is now "impossible"; while Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea have closed the gap as the competition for a top-four spot increases.

"My doubt is not about my future here," said Pochettino. "After five years, I really believe we do a fantastic job for the club.

"If now the expectation is that it is not enough to play well, be a contender for top four and be in the Champions League for the third year in a row, if now the obligation is that it is compulsory to win a title because we are doing so well, you need to compare with other teams.

"In that comparison, you can be fair or unfair in your opinion. People judge us and put pressure on us if we have not won a trophy. Is that fair or not fair?

"If we compete with the same tools or different tools? If we [are] at the same level or not?
.
.
"I cannot change opinions and everyone can judge us in a different way. That's why I told you that, maybe if Daniel [Levy - Spurs chairman] said to me next season, 'We need to win a title, we need to win the Champions League and we need to win the Premier League', then maybe you need to find another magic guy who can do this."


Now did Poch just talked himself out of contention for the vacancy at Old Trafford? hmm.gif

All great goals from both teams today.
Though I feel De Gea could have done better for the goals he conceded today.
Boy that Perreira guy is good. Not only because he scored but his movements and play are impressive.
Lukaku is strong and he takes his shots quickly, catching the keeper off guard.

Done better how? A bullet shot & well placed frekick.

Agree. Both Southampton goals are not his fault and nothing much DDG can do apart from notworthy.gif the quality of the strikes.
James Ward-Prowse is known for his set piece qualities so didn't we do any homework on that? hmm.gif

POGBA'S PENALTY MISS

“I just said to him there, 'get ready for the next one because you are going to take that one as well.’ I have missed penalties and he is a confident boy, he wants to go and take the next one and you want that character in the boys. Today, he really blasted it and he usually places them, but he will be okay. ”

Manchester United caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has provided an update on Alexis Sanchez's injury.

The Chilean was hurt at the start of the second half, as the Reds won 3-2 in an entertaining clash, following an awkward collision inside the Saints' penalty area.

Clearly frustrated at having to leave the field, after providing some telling passes in the opening period, he made way for substitute Diogo Dalot.

“We don't know yet,” said Ole. “He got a knock on his knee. It might be his ligaments. We'll do the scan tomorrow.

”Hopefully, it won't be too bad but we won't know until we've done the scans. Of course, we'll have to wait until then.“

Any ligament damage would surely sideline the 30-year-old. Marcus Rashford played the full 90 minutes to prove his fitness ahead of the Paris Saint-Germain tie in the Champions League in midweek.

Paul Pogba is suspended for the match in his homeland, of course, but there could be a hope Anthony Martial is available to take the spot on the left flank.

The Reds trail 2-0 from the first leg at Old Trafford but confidence remains high in the camp.

MATCH FACTS

No club has ever progressed to the next round of the Champions League after losing the first leg of a knockout match at home by two or more goals (34 previous cases).

Paris St-Germain have lost just one of their last 16 Champions League games at home (W10 D5), but that defeat came in the last 16 last season against Real Madrid (1-2).

None of the last six English sides to face Paris St-Germain at the Parc des Princes have won. In fact, the only English team to prevail away from home versus PSG were Jose Mourinho's Chelsea in September 2004 (3-0).

Four of the last five two-legged encounters between teams from England and France in the Champions League knockout phase have seen the French side progress.

PSG have scored 35 goals in their last 10 Champions League home games but haven't kept a clean sheet in each of the last five.

Manchester United have won only one of their last 10 Champions League knockout games (D3 L6), with this coming against Olympiakos in March 2014 (3-0 at Old Trafford). Their last away win in the knockout stages came eight years ago against Schalke (2-0), in April 2011.

Manchester United have lost their last two Champions League matches (1-2 away in Valencia in the final group stage match, 0-2 defeat to PSG in the first leg of this tie). They haven't lost three games in succession in the competition since March 2005.

The heaviest margin of defeat that Manchester United have suffered over a two-legged European tie is by three goals; in the 1957/58 European Cup semi-final versus AC Milan (2-5 on aggregate) and in the 1991/92 Cup Winners' Cup Round of 16 against Atletico Madrid (1-4 on aggregate).

Paris St-Germain's Kylian Mbappé has found the net in six of his seven Champions League appearances against British clubs (6 goals in total). He has scored 14 goals in the Champions League; two more than any other player has netted as an under-21 player in the history of the competition (Karim Benzema is the next best with 12 goals).

Marcus Rashford has scored only one goal in his last nine Champions League games (6 starts), that came in Manchester Utd's last away match against Valencia in December. He was the only Manchester Utd player to register a shot on target in the first leg against Paris St-Germain.

No-one could have predicted Manchester United's sensational comeback against Paris St-Germain in the Champions League on Wednesday night...

... or could they?

Step forward United fan Timmy Chin, who lives in Malaysia and decided to offer a pre-match prediction on Twitter.

"Honestly got a good feeling about this," he wrote at precisely 7.54pm. "Probably either we get totally hammered or we really put on a show. Lukaku with 2. PSG comes back with 1 and Rashford fires home 92 mins into injury time!"

Trailing 2-0 from the first leg at Old Trafford, United took the lead through Romelu Lukaku after two minutes.

PSG equalised before Lukaku added a second to leave Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side within a goal of the quarter-finals on the away goals rule.

In the 94th minute (Timmy was two minutes out), Marcus Rashford thrashed home a penalty awarded following a VAR review and everyone was left wondering whether Timmy had magical powers.

"I usually put out predictions but I never go in so specifically, but this time I don't know why," Chin told BBC Radio Manchester.

The original tweet has gone viral and also attracted the attention of United's players - including Diogo Dalot.

"It's just crazy for the players to recognise my tweet. It's a dream come true - I'm so happy," he added.

Ashley Young went one step further, offering the fan a shirt for his efforts and promised one signed by the whole squad if he correctly predicts the outcome of this weekend's league encounter with Arsenal.

City given a gifted first goal... that's gonna be the headlines. Even after consultation, the ref still got it wrong.

The referee overruled a perfectly done decision by the assistant doh.gif

@GaryLineker
Surely with Sterling attempting to play the ball then he becomes active regardless of whether the defender gets there first.
