Manchester United’s Anthony Martial and Wayne Rooney sink Burnley
Manchester United enter Thursday’s 174th derby with Manchester City knowing victory at the Etihad Stadium will leapfrog them over Pep Guardiola’s side into fourth place after this convincing win.
Yet José Mourinho suggested winning the Europa League, another route into the Champions League, is preferable. “If we beat Celta we go to the final and, yes, it is important to us to play in the Champions League but this club wants trophies. We have 25 per cent chance to win the Europa League.”
Before the recalled Wayne Rooney’s 251st goal for the club Anthony Martial became the first United man to score at Turf Moor in the league since Lou Macari in 1976. In doing so he cost another £8.5m payment to Monaco, a clause being triggered by Martial reaching 25 goals for the club. This may raise his fee to £44.5m but the near £40m dividend yielded if Champions League qualification is achieved means United will hardly care.
