#8 Real test for Manchester United starts from week 8

Manchester United v Everton - Premier League
He is the success story of United so far

Manchester United got off to the best possible start since Ferguson’s era. Just goal difference separates United from City at the top of the table. United's new signings Lukaku and Matic have proved to be bargains, and Lukaku leads the race for the golden boot with 7 goals so far. United's defence looks solid as Bailly and Jones form a solid partnership.

But the real test for the Red Devils begins now. United have not played any top 6 teams so far this season and have had some easy fixtures until now.

They play Liverpool, Tottenham and Chelsea in October and 3 out of next 4 games are away from Old Trafford. The loss of Paul Pogba to a long-term injury may also have an impact in the long run. The next few weeks are crucial for Jose Mourinho and his side in their title bid.
