Manchester United paid tribute to Sir Bobby Charlton with a 2-1 Premier League victory at Sheffield United hot
United are mourning one of their greatest ever players following Charlton’s death aged 86 on Saturday morning and goals from Scott McTominay and Diogo Dalot ensured they remembered him with victory hot
But Erik ten Hag’s side could not be much further away from the one that Charlton famously led to European Cup glory in 1968 as they were lacklustre against a team who have picked up just one point this season hot
Defender Dalot was the unlikely hero as he saved their blushes with a 20-yard curler 13 minutes from time after Oli McBurnie’s first-half penalty had cancelled out McTominay’s opener hot
It was not a vintage performance, certainly not one fitting of Charlton, but United did at least register back-to-back league victories for the first time this season and Ten Hag will hope this can be a springboard hot
The Blades may feel they deserved something out of the game, especially on the back of a lively first-half performance, but they slipped to an eighth defeat from nine games and a long winter looks on the cards hot
United captain Bruno Fernandes laid a wreath on the centre circle before kick-off and there was a minute’s applause for the World Cup winner, while the away end gave a rousing rendition of ‘There’s only one Bobby Charlton’ hot
As emotional as it was for United, they still had a job to do and they had to weather an early storm from the hosts hot
The Blades started well and should have led inside the opening three minutes as Gus Hamer’s shot deflected into the path of McBurnie, but with time and space 14 yards out he shot straight at Andre Onana, who gratefully clung on hot
The visitors were up against it and Ten Hag used an injury break to gather his players and bark instructions hot
It did not immediately make much difference as Onana, much maligned for handling errors this season, produced a strong arm to keep out Cameron Archer’s 20-yard drive hot
For all their bluster, the Blades had come away from a strong opening 25 minutes without reward and they were punished as the visitors went ahead against the run of the play in the 28th minute hot
McTominay, who rescued his side with two injury-time goals against Brentford before the international break, received the ball from Fernandes and his scuffed effort found its way into the bottom corner hot
Things quickly turned sour for for McTominay, though, as just five minutes later he gave away a penalty when he handled James McAtee’s cross hot
The incident survived a VAR check and McBurnie stepped up and stroked the spot-kick home for his first goal of the season hot
McBurnie almost turned provider in the 41st minute when he slipped in Archer, but Onana bravely stopped with his face hot
For all the home pressure, it was Ten Hag’s men who nearly took a lead into the half-time break as they had two late chances hot
First Fernandes clipped the crossbar with a dipping free-kick before Rasmus Hojlund was denied by a fine save from Wes Foderingham, who rushed out and deflected the ball wide hot
The Blades were on the front foot after the restart and Onana made another impressive stop, palming away Rhian Brewster’s effort after being wrong-footed hot
United finally upped their game and created a raft of chances to go back in front hot
Foderingham saved from Hojlund when the Dane should have scored, Marcus Rashford rolled wide at the far post and Sofyan Amrabat thundered a fierce 20-yard effort against the crossbar hot
The breakthrough eventually came in the 77th minute when Dalot was afforded too much time on the edge of the area and he curled a shot into the top corner, though Foderingham got a hand to it and should have kept it out hot
That proved enough as United remembered Charlton with victory which will not live long in the memory hot

Mauricio Pochettino said Chelsea could have Christopher Nkunku available as early as the week after the November international break as the summer signing’s recovery from a knee injury is progressing quicker than expected hot
The 25-year-old, who was injured in a friendly against Borussia Dortmund during the club’s pre-season tour of the United States, had been expected to be out until at least December but that timescale has now been brought forward, raising the possibility he could make a long-awaited competitive debut when the team face Newcastle at St James’s Park on November 25 hot
The loss of Nkunku weeks after completing a £52m move from RB Leipzig was a significant blow to Pochettino’s preparations for the new campaign, particularly as he had been a standout performer during the two weeks in the US hot
And his absence was keenly felt once the Premier League season began as Chelsea scored just five times in their first six league matches, a run that saw them fail to score a single goal during September hot
That record has improved markedly during the last three games during which the team has more than doubled its goal return, but the possible early return for the France international - who was last season’s joint top scorer in the Bundesliga with 16 goals - would represent a boost for Pochettino as he faces a torrid upcoming run of fixtures hot
After Saturday lunchtime’s meeting with Brentford at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea face consecutive league matches against Tottenham, Manchester City, Newcastle, Brighton and Manchester United hot
“(Nkunku) is doing really well, working hard, I think he’s really close,” said Pochettino hot
“As soon as possible we can have him involved again hot
“After the next internationals maybe he could be involved hot
“He’s a player that when you see the goals he scored last season, (you see) he provides goals, and I think we’re missing goals hot
That’s why we think he’s a player that can be important for us hot
“He’s proved he can score goals in the Bundesliga hot
If today we had eight or 10 goals from Nkunku, maybe the situation (in the league) would be completely different hot
“It’s goals that we are missing to be in a different position hot
It’s unlucky but we can’t complain, we need to work hot
We’re looking forward to recovering him and helping the team be in a different position hot
”Pochettino previously said that he could be tempted to look at options in the transfer market if form in front of goal did not improve by January, but acknowledged a run of eight goals in three league games coupled with Nkunku’s progress could lessen the urgency hot
“hot Football is really dynamic,” he said hot
“Today maybe we are thinking in a different way to three weeks ago, but we’re ready and working with the sporting directors to be ready in the transfer window, if we need to add players in an offensive position hot
”The Premier League confirmed on Thursday that Chelsea will take part in the competition’s first Christmas Eve fixture since 1995 with their visit to Wolves moved from December 23 to accommodate TV coverage hot
The decision has drawn significant backlash from supporters, but it is particularly resonant for the Pochettino household as the previous day marks his and his wife’s 31st anniversary - which the manager will now spend travelling to Wolverhampton hot
“Our fans are not happy? Me neither hot
The 23rd is my anniversary with my wife and now I need to travel to Wolves hot
“I believe I am not going to convince her to come hot
“The 24th (of December) for Argentine people is a really important night, and I hope to arrive (home) in time to celebrate after hot
But if our fans are not happy, I am not happy also hot
“(The decision) is not easy to change, but we need to accept we are in England and it’s different to the rest of the world hot
I need to adapt myself hot
But even if I’m not happy, I need to do my best to be at my best level and accept it’s a situation we cannot change hot
