Manchester United’s in-house friendly rivalry could be the ignition that fires our UEFA Europa League challenge in Cologne.

And a rejuvenated Anthony Martial can be the attacking force to inspire the Reds, after playing a bit-part role in our 2017 triumph in Stockholm.

United face FC Copenhagen in the quarter-finals on Monday in Cologne, with further semi-final and final dates in the cathedral city hopefully still to come.

Our French striker mainly watched from the sidelines during the latter stages of United’s successful Europa League campaign under Jose Mourinho. He started the February last-16 home leg against St Etienne and was then a substitute in all the following knockout games right up to the final, where he played the last six minutes - replacing Marcus Rashford - as goals from Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Paul Pogba secured the win over Ajax.
