I have the feeling United started to play the way he wants. Guardiola will look to ensure his team is not vulnerable to counter-attacks as they were when United duo Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial carved out an early lead at the Etihad Stadium last month.

Those turnarounds would give plenty of hope to Bournemouth and Aston Villa, who are only in the bottom three on goal difference and by two points respectively.
He had always looked out for me and had asked the Fiorentina manager, Vincenzo Montella, how I was doing. At the start of 2015, Fiorentina wanted to sign me permanently but I wasn't in the team at that stage - they had switched to a three-man defence - and I wanted to keep my options open. Then Mancini came in for me, and asked me if I wanted to go to Inter - on another loan but with an option to sign permanently if I wanted to.
