After that victory Leicester went on a 13 game winless run picking up just two points in them; they have started turning things around in recent weeks though picking up 7 points from the last four games. The recent upturn in form hasn’t helped them in improving their league placing they still remain bottom of the table with just 17 points from 22 and desperately need a good run of results in the coming weeks to stay up this season.

Manchester United are currently 4th in the table with 40 points from 22 games. In all honesty United have not performed any better than they did last season under David Moyes. Yes! The league standing is better than it was under Moyes but the team just looks like a big mess.

The Louis Van Gaal era so far hasn’t been a huge success that many had been hoping for, he may not have the players he wants but he did spend over 150 million Euros in the summer. United needs to pick up their game for the rest of the season or they may well miss out on Europe again as teams under them are drastically improving each week.

On Saturday though United should win the match against Leicester, they have enough quality in their team and more importantly another slip against Leicester on Saturday may well give Van Gaal’s doubters more voice.
