28'
Lowton whips in a tempting cross to the six-yard back, but it's straight into the arms of De Gea.
27'
Pogba flicks a pass towards Liingard, but Heaton intercepts and starts a counterattack. Pogba and Blind team up to mop up the mess.
26'
Another foul from Fellaini, another one on Barnes. It was a bit of a late one, flicking his toes up at Barnes once the ball ran away from him. No booking, yet.
25'
Martial is bundled over in the middle of the pitch. Darmian and Herrera link up on the left wing, and United play it back to the defence. Rooney overhits a pass towards Martial down the middle.
24'
Rooney swears at the referee.
21'
GOAL! Burnley 0-1 Manchester United. Martial scores - Fellaini barges into Barnes, I think, in the back. Free kick for Burnley. Barnes sends in the free kick and United clear it for a while. Brady sends in a cross, and United finally break this time, with Martial. Martial plays it off to the right for Herrera, who sends back a cross into his pass, and slides it past Heaton.

Burnley break down the left with Gray, but Baily stands up to a run from Barnes to seize the ball. Lingard brings the ball up through the middle of the pitch, lays it off for Rooney, but his cross is sliced over.
14'
Gray is released down the right. He plays it to Boyd, but his powerful shot from distance is blocked by Blind or Darmian.

Rooney finds Martial's run down the left. He drives into the box, plays it to Herrera who passes inside again for Rooney, but he stubs a poor shot against Mee, and Heaton gets down to save.
7'
No chances for either side yet. Bailly chips a clearance down the line, but Brady wins it back for Burnley.
5'
Darmian sticks a leg out to prevent Gray skinning him into the box, and United win the ball back.
3'
Burnley are keeping the ball pretty well, but Gray slams into Pogba on the left wing with a lunge that goes into Pogba's foot. He seems OK for now. It shoud have been a booking but the referee is AGAIN witlessly incompetent.

United are unbeaten in 22 games in the Premier League, and are in a mixed state of emotions. They can put pressure on the clubs above them involved in the FA Cup this weekend, and Liverpool who will play after this game. As well as that, they have to juggle their resources ahead of the Europa League semi-final.

Here's the Paper Round from this morning, which suggests that Manchester United could be looking at Monaco's Benjamin Mendy.
