After the rip-roaring beginning of Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s Manchester United career and Paul Pogba’s magnificent return another summer signing could have his chance to light up José Mourinho’s third league game in charge. Henrikh Mkhitaryan is in line to start and his pace may strike fear into the hearts of Hull City. Mike Phelan can dream of a third unlikely win but is more likely planning not to be embarrassed by his former employers. Graham Searles
