Rangnick will need to find a way to cope with this as Matic can't play every game. After Portugal qualified for the World Cup behind performances from Diogo Dalot, Bruno Fernandes, and Cristiano Ronaldo, they'll want to translate that to the Premier League as United risks falling out of Champions League contention.

22nd min: Shaw lifts the ball into the area, deep from the left, and it finds Pogba just past the penalty spot. 28th min: The best chance of the game so far falls to Fernandes. Fofana gives it away to Fred and is caught out of position, as Fernandes finds himself clean through on goal. Harvey Barnes has had a couple of shots from outside the area in quick succession, but neither looked likely to trouble De Gea's goal. As he approached midfield, he drove the ball out to Pogba on the right hand side. He looks to find Dewsbury-Hall in the area, but United had bodies back and Varane cut it out. De Gea gets something on it, but it's too weak, and it nestles in the back of the net. Fred gets on the end of the loose ball and, on the edge of the area, passed centrally to Fernandes. Fernandes fires low, to the 'keeper's right. The Leicester corner is headed clear and United look to be on the counter. Fofana rises well and heads the ball towards the corner, but De Gea impressively manages to get a hand to it and palm the ball away. De Gea is out and Iheanacho, from close to goal and a very tight angle, tries to lift the ball over the 'keeper. It's a strange choice of finish and never looked like ending in a goal. The ball is fired into Iheanacho on the edge of the area. It almost feels like Leicester are at home and United are the visitors.
