Ruben Amorim stated after the 1-1 draw against Ipswich that it will be a bit chaotic for several months to come. The Portuguese has decided that it will be played with a new formation and high risk, i.e. “on the job training” for the Man United players.

4000 tickets for the Glimt supporters for the Europa League match at Old Trafford were sold within 15 minutes. The extreme demand from the away supporters led to the expansion of the away section with an additional 2659 tickets.
