DANNY MURPHY: It hurts me to say this as an ex-Liverpool man... but welcome back Manchester United!

Daily Mail  

My natural instinct isn't to wish Manchester United well but I have to appreciate that seeing them in the title mix, currently joint-top with Liverpool, is good for the game. Manchester United are now level on points with Premier League leaders Liverpool at the top Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has turned United's fortunes round after a difficult start to the season That is a credit to him and perhaps a lesson to trigger-happy chairmen that you sometimes have to give managers a proper chance, particularly when they are trying to instigate long-term change. Solskjaer has handled himself very well as United boss despite being under pressure In the meantime, January may not be the busiest transfer window ever but one potential deal that would help is Liverpool signing a centre-half. Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp will be feeling the pressure but has coped well with injuries We all know Sergio Ramos's history with Liverpool, while Chelsea won't want to sell Antonio Rudiger to a rival.
