The match between Manchester United and Southampton was the first kickoff in the second round of the Premier League.

This game is only 5 days away from Manchester United and Bournemouth.

In this round, Manchester United will play at home.

This is their first home game this season.

Chu Ge, Ibrahimovic and Kanter will also welcome their first league debut at Old Trafford.

The Pogba, who was suspended by the FA in the first round, will also come back in this round, ushering in his first Premier League game after returning to Manchester United.

Manchester United's opponent in this round is Southampton.

Southampton was originally called St. Mary of Southampton. It originated from a football team established by the youth team affiliated with St. Mary ’s Church, and their home stadium is still called St. Mary ’s Stadium. Therefore, Southampton also has an interesting nickname: Saints.

Chu Ge ’s former teammate, Welsh star Gareth Bell, played for the Saints.

This season's transfer of 35 million pounds worth of Liverpool Senegal star Sadio Mane is also produced by the Saints.

This team is very good at training semi-finished products.

After Mane was taken away by the Liverpool people, the Saints' most favorite star among the giants is the Dutch star Virgil van Dijk.

Van Dijk moved to Southampton last season.

In his first season, he played with Mane and other players to help Southampton get the sixth place in the Premier League. The league points are only three points behind Van Gaal's Manchester United.

Although many people are criticizing Van Dijk's defensive movements for being too big and a little frizzy, it is undeniable that this Dutchman has all the potential to be called a top guard.

Height, strength, defensive awareness, determination, etc.

He even has the hot shot ability of modern central defenders.

Many big-name teams are watching Van Dijk in the long run. As long as he becomes more mature, as long as there is a suitable opportunity, Van Dijk will soon be able to play for the giants.

Manchester United is also one of many teams that pay attention to Van Dijk.

This round of the league is also a good opportunity for Manchester United to observe Van Dijk up close.
