Manchester United need a response, and fast. Their 4-0 hammering away to Everton on Sunday came after objectively one of their worst performances in years and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be demanding that his players repay the United fans with a huge display next up.
Their major problem is that the team arriving at Old Trafford on Wednesday are Manchester City, who have strung together 10 successive Premier League victories at a time when Liverpool are pushing them all the way for the title. In many ways, this is the worst time possible for United to have to face up to a Manchester derby.
