Opinion: All stand up for James!

The Reds have a long history of exciting wingers with pace and trickery and, while some can argue the position is defunct in some formations, the importance of width in creating dangerous situations remains. Certainly in the 4-2-3-1 formation Ole appears to have been using most often, there is a reliance on attacking players to utilise space down the flanks with Marcus Rashford also always essential in this respect.

United also have an association with the 1989 song 'Sit Down' by Manchester band James, after it was played during the glorious celebrations at the Nou Camp, following the dramatic 2-1 win over Bayern Munich in the Champions League final that clinched the Treble in 1999.
