United's flexibility serving them well in top-four race - Football


After a poor start to the season United have gone under the radar in their 15-game unbeaten run. Led by master tactician Jose Mourinho and a squad of adaptable players it is the Old Trafford side's tactical flexibility that is aiding them. Forward Marcus Rashford moved out to the wing and Henrikh Mkhitaryan was deployed in a central playmaking role behind central striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic. "We tried not to give (central defenders Wes) Morgan and (Robert) Huth a two-against-one fight and target against with Zlatan. "When we are playing football, one-two passes are very easy no matter which position," Mkhitaryan told Sky Sports.
