Paul Pogba and Man Utd continue to be denied by the woodwork

Manchester United have hit the woodwork a remarkable 19 times this season - and no Premier League player has done so more often than Paul Pogba.

The Frenchman saw a fine free-kick cannon back off an upright against Hull City in Tuesday's EFL Cup semi-final win, which is the seventh time he's been denied by the woodwork across all competitions.

In the Premier League, Pogba struck the bar against Watford and Stoke and hit the upright with a free-kick against Spurs before doing the same against Sunderland and Middlesbrough, first with a curling effort from distance and then with an overhead kick. He's also hit the post in United's 1-0 EFL Cup win over Manchester City.
 
Nineth consecutive victory.....longest winning run since the 2008/09 campaign, when they won 11 games in a row between January and February and went on to clinch a Premier League and League Cup double under Sir Alex Ferguson.
 
Manchester United's turnaround

United had only won four of their previous nine games as they struggled to maintain any kind of consistency, but keeping a 100 per cent record over the busy Christmas period is an impressive feat.

After struggling to convert chances earlier in the season, United have now scored 20 goals in their last nine games. It is a satisfying turnaround for Mourinho, and his side's attacking improvements are spread across the team.
 
A 10th consecutive victory would put United within two points of Liverpool and add to the growing confidence around Old Trafford. With the prospect of an EFL Cup final also on the agenda, things are beginning to look up for Mourinho's men.

Morgan Schneiderlin is having a medical at Everton ahead of a £22m move from Manchester United, according to Sky sources.

A move to Goodison Park would see Schneiderlin reunited with his former manager Ronald Koeman, under whom he flourished while the pair were together at Southampton.

The France international was brought to United by Louis van Gaal in a £24m deal in the summer of 2015 but has failed to win favour since Jose Mourinho took over last summer.
 
Jose Mourinho criticised his players for over-celebrating Juan Mata's opener in Manchester United's EFL Cup semi-final first-leg victory over Hull City.

It took United 56 minutes to break down a resolute Hull side at Old Trafford, Mata stooping at the far post to turn Henrikh Mkhitaryan's header beyond Eldin Jakupovic.

The Spaniard wheeled away in front of the Stretford End as the hosts partook in lengthy celebrations, actions Mourinho disapproved of after the game.

Sasa wale washika bunduki walioshangilia droo kama wameshinda ECL si Mou angewacharaza viboko!

Mkuu pamoja na kuifunga Hull city jana, hivi kuna marudiano au tushaingia final?
 
Japokuwa siipendi Manchester ila naiombea ushindi dhidi ya liverpul ..ili kuiweka Chelsea katika mazingira mazuri.
