Leicester have problems, Divock Origi rises to the occasion again and Oliver Skipp grows in importance for Spurs
Perhaps Ralf Rangnick’s biggest selection call in his first match in charge was to retain Diogo Dalot at right-back ahead of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, with Alex Telles continuing at left-back in the absence of Luke Shaw. Both were integral to United’s win: Telles having more touches than anyone else on the pitch, Dalot a frequent and threatening outlet on the right flank. In a way, this is another area in which United have fallen behind the elite in recent years, and Rangnick’s approach here suggested an attempt to redress the balance. Attacking full-backs? It may just catch on. Jonathan Liew
