‘It was the best goal I’ve EVER scored’ – Henrikh Mkhitaryan

Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s “incredible” form for Manchester United belies the striker’s age, according to team-mate Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

He chose to come to Manchester United and to the Premier League.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic played the ball in towards Henrikh Mkhitaryan who performed an incredible scorpion-kick past Jordan Pickford to put Manchester United 3-0 up – we’ll forget the fact that he was marginally offside and the goal shouldn’t have stood.

The striker’s goal against Sunderland means he has scored 50 times across all competitions for club and country in 2016, the year he retired from worldwide football.

Mourinho’s men missed golden opportunities to double their lead in the first ten minutes of the second half when both Pogba and Ibrahimovic failed to keep their header and shot down respectively. “At the moment we think it’ll be close to 12 weeks”, Moyes told reporters ahead of Monday’s English Premier League match at Manchester United.

“My answer is simple: if he’s playing regular with me I have the right to say, “no way”.

“I think a manager that’s not sacked is not a manager, or at least is not a good manager”, he added.

“The good performances we had for quite some time”.

Despite enjoying almost 80% of possession, Arsenal couldn’t break down an extremely stubborn West Brom at the Emirates Stadium. But for him, 35 is the same as 25, Ligue 1 is the same as the Premier League. I was expecting the ball to be in front of me and then I realised I was in front of it. Arsenal are now level on points with third-placed Liverpool, who have a game in hand. Despite years of experience with Barcelona, Valdes reminded us all that even the veterans are prone to errors and it was his costly mistake that cost Boro a vital point. “There are no easy matches but we are playing well and we are more confident”.

“He gets himself into good positions and once you get people running off him he has the quality and ability to set them up”.

And after the break, United simply stepped it up a notch, but again due to some narrow misses and gritty defending from the Black Cats, were unable to get a two-goal cushion.
