In a strange way, I can understand how Man United go to Hull on the opening day of the season and lose as they did. Set-pieces led to both goals and it was Hull’s first game back in the Premier League, that’s a huge occasion for the club and fans.

When the fixtures came out every year, I always hated getting a promoted team in the first game because they’re hungry, they’re on a high from last season and it’s going to be a cup final atmosphere for that game.

It’s always a difficult one to navigate and I wouldn’t be too concerned if I was a United fan.

There are other factors too at the moment. Some of the players have been away at the World Cup, they’ve had limited games in preseason to get some rest, and there’s obviously a lot of change with players coming and going, so I wouldn’t read a lot into the first game of the season.

There are always going to be shocks.

They have signed well this summer. I like what they’ve done to address the midfield, it’s probably the most important area of the team for United as they have been a bit weak there in recent seasons.

I love Carlos Baleba as a signing, he’ll bring a lot. He won’t play on Sunday, but Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans are good players too. They look a bit stronger centrally now.

Last season, they signed Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbuemo, who were two game changers. They have Benjamin Sesko as well and Marcus Rashford is returning from his Barcelona loan. I think he’ll end up playing and being an important player for them.

He played in La Liga last season and I think that helped his game, he scored and made goals, and I can see him back in the United side this season.

Ipswich fans must be buzzing going to Old Trafford this week after winning against Sunderland on the opening day. Just getting back in the league is a great feeling, but what a result as well to start. It’s amazing for them and huge to get that first three points.

I’ve worked with Gary O’Neil before. Someone of his calibre going in after Kieran McKenna left is a really good appointment as he has shown before what he can do in the Premier League.

And they’ve shown their ambitions with their spending this summer. It reminds me of Sunderland last year – everyone said you couldn’t sign that many players and it all gel together, but it worked for them and it could work for Ipswich.

Man United to win

I have to look at Man United to win on Sunday though. Last week was a shock result for them and I don’t expect that to repeat this week. They’ll be in
