2) Zlatan gets off the mark

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has promised to become Manchester’s ‘God’. He had a rather inauspicious beginning as he failed to impact the game in the first half.

He mostly cut a lonely figure as Leicester attacked relentlessly. Zlatan couldn’t really gain possession when United cleared their lines. He was even second to the ball on a couple of occasions. However, ultimately he managed to head in the all-important winner.

Zlatan is everything United have lacked over the past couple of seasons. An out and out striker, with an unquestionable goal scoring record, he also has the swag associated with the likes of Cantona and Ronaldo.

It remains to be seen how his United career spans out. But, for now, Zlatan has well and truly arrived in England.
