Luton 0-3 United: 3 Things We Learnt As United Progressed In The Carabao Cup

Manchester United traveled to Luton town for the third round of the Carabao cup. It ended up as a routine win for Unted after struggles in the first half. Here are three things #ManUtdNaijaFM learnt: 1. "JUST TRY YOUR BEST" It is getting clearer that these words are the summary of United's tactics of play now.
