Evening all, let's have some teams.

It's back to being scrappy.

Carrick clips a luscious blind pass into Rooney, and he finds Darmian. The ball is then moved onto Lingard, but his cross is blocked away. Good football, though, and Fener can't get out. Still no chances, though.

United have woken up, putting on some pressure and eventually finding Pogba on the edge of the box, left of centre. He tries a curler, but Skrtel does well to head clear and United build again.

But here's a bit of football, Bailly clipping forward to Lingard who takes out the air Berbatov-style then beats his man and lays back to Mata. He espies Martial running into space at the back post too, but can't find him, his lob over the top drifting out of play.

Trappist mice make starts less quiet than this game.

The journalist David Winner, who ghosted Rio Ferdinand's most recent book, told me today that in Fergie's last season, his teamtalks basically consisted of "get the ball to Robin". Such is tactical genius, though Van Persie was actually only that good for half a season - he's not been the same since getting injured in January 2013.

Fener knock the ball across the back four as Mata leads United's press. It looks very funny indeed.

On the left now, Rooney turns and feeds the onrushing Pogba, but there's too much on the pass and the attack fizzles out.

Darmian presses downfield and finds Rooney, working outside the box. He wins a throw, but given his role alone up front, he'd probably do better to stay in the middle.

Lovely from Mata, into Martial, taking the return and sliding first-time into Shaw. His attempted cross is blocked by Ozbayrakli, canons off his shins, and Fenerbahce win the throw.

Smalling welts one out of play. Typical United in Europe, so far.

Bailly assume possession, saunters forward, and passes precisely into touch. Nonchalant, was that.

Rooney kicks off, knocking the ball backwards with perfect poise. What a player!

It's not entirely clear how United will line up. My guess is Carrick and Pogba in front of the back four, Lingard, Mata and Martial in front of them from right to left, and Rooney up front.

Martin Skrtel appears to have wrapped tefillin around his face.

Tuncay is in the away end, which is always nice to see. Meanwhile in the tunnel, various United players hug Robin van Persie, who looks as pleased with himself as ever.

Michael Owen talking about something not being "the United way" is funny, because Michael Owen is not "the United way".

Riddle me that! How is meant to prove it sitting on his couch?

Robin van Persie is talking about his time in England. He liked it. He says that he grew up here in some ways, and mainly speaks Engish to his kids.
