Waching daily Sep 2 2018

5.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan

He has had one really good stretch of about 20 minutes against Chelsea, but aside from

that, he has been nothing short of terrible.

Mkhitaryan has not been able to cover for a collapsing Ozil.

He hasn't even been able to provide for himself.

That has to change.

Cardiff should see Mkhitaryan given plenty of opportunities and, by nature, you'd have

to assume that he would take some of them.

4.

Mesut Ozil

Mesut Ozil is gradually falling down this list of key players simply because he is looking

powerless to be a key player anymore.

Ozil missed out on West Ham due to illness/not liking what Emery had in mind for his usage

against the Hammers.

It was a major blow to fans' confidence in Ozil because we've been here before with

his mystery illnesses.

3.

Granit Xhaka

With Ozil on the fritz, Granit Xhaka can take the majority of the responsibility there.

Those kinds of passes will be needed against Cardiff.

In fact, this whole game figures to be one that Xhaka can really shine in.

The Gunners will have most of the possession and that inevitably brings Xhaka into the

game much more, as he is a control tower of a midfielder that needs possession to be at

his best.

2.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

Chances are, this isn't a game that is going to favor his over the top speed and style.

For a team that hasn't given up any goals, Aubameyang will be tasked with doing more

than he is traditionally used to.

Aubameyang is going to have to navigate tight spaces and, let me say this again, make the

most of his chances.

1.

Aaron Ramsey

Well, Aaron Ramsey sits perfectly in the middle ground of creating chances and taking chances.

The midfielder will be facing his youth side, which is always a bit of an added motivation,

to show them how far you've come.

But aside from the emotional connection, Ramsey is probably the only guy present in the expected

starting XI that can make things happen all on his own.

Man Utd news: Jose Mourinho reveals Alexis Sanchez plan ahead of Burnley clash - Duration: 3:42.

 United have suffered back-to-back defeats to condemn them to their worst start to a Premier League season since the division's inaugural 1992-93 campaign

 Jose Mourinho's men were thrashed 3-0 by Tottenham at Old Trafford on Monday following a reverse to Brighton the previous weekend

 The Chilean winger was absent for that loss due to injury, described by Mourinho as a "little problem", and only played the last 35 minutes of the defeat to Spurs

 Sanchez has been left out of Chile's squad for the international break with La Roja facing Japan and South Korea in Asia

 Despite his status for the national team as their all-time top goalscorer and most-capped player, Chile coach Reinaldo Rueda revealed: "It's a recommendation from Manchester United's medical staff

 "He is recovering but all that this trip means the suggestion was that he should not participate in these friendlies

Respecting that and what Alexis feels we did not take into account for this call-up

" Instead, Sanchez will stay in England and look to get back up to speed with the rest of United's first-team squad who have not been called up to represent their countries around the world

 And Mourinho hopes that time to get back to his best can help the 29-year-old to discover his best form having largely disappointed since a January switch from Arsenal, managing just three goals in 20 appearances

 "He's not going to the national team for these two friendlies in Japan and South Korea, which is good news for us because after that we play Watford and then immediately play [a] Champions League [match vs Young Boys]," Mourinho said on Sanchez

 "He's committed, he's focused, he works hard. I believe that he will improve. "I didn't ask [Sanchez not to play for Chile], I never ask players not to go [on international duty] and I never contact national teams for players not to go

 "It's a personal thing between him and the national manager. "At the same time, coming [back] from injury, he feels that for him it's a much-needed two weeks in spite of his conditions to play against Burnley

 "He feels that, after that [match vs Burnley], he needs two weeks to put himself in good shape and, because of the friendly matches in Asia, they made the decision for his good and, in consequence our good, for him not to go

" Sanchez has four goals in five league matches against Burnley is expected to start at Turf Moor today (4pm) with Mourinho enjoying a strong squad to pick from - minus absentees Phil Jones, Diogo Dalot and Sergio Romero

 United will hope to get back to winning ways to ease some of the increasing pressure on Mourinho with the club not having lost three straight league matches since December 2015

They have never lost four straight Premier League games.
