    10 Things We Have Learnt About Manchester United This Season

     After 10 Premier League games this season, we take a look at 10 things we have learnt about Manchester United this season.

    1) Moyes needs time to settle

    The last few months have flown by as a Manchester United fan as Moyes has taken a proverbial kicking. It seems as though the entire nation was willing him to fail, and you could argue that he did in the early stages but he is starting to settle now.

    2) Hernandez is still struggling to get a look in

    Chicharito will score goals wherever he goes, in my opinion, and the Mexican has proven that over his career. However, he is still struggling to get into the United side and he I wouldn't be surprised to see him move on soon.

    3) Fellaini might not be the answer

    He's had a tricky start to his Old Trafford career and many are already calling for him to be dropped. My mind isn't made up on the Belgian just yet but he certainly doesn't look like the solution we were after in the summer.

    4) Cleverley is still average

    He offers very little, in my eyes. He keeps the ball moving, yes, but to very little effect.

    5) Kagawa is being wasted

    The Japan international scored six goals last season and created 20 chances in his minimal playing time, but this season he has been hugely overlooked once again.

    6) De Gea is a fine goalkeeper

    Many were doubting him when he first joined the club but he proved them wrong at the back end of last season. This term he has kept two league clean sheets and averaged 2.4 saves per game.

    7) Wayne Rooney is better as a centre-forward

    After moaning about being used deeper than he would have liked, the England international has been stuck back up top and he's scored five goals in nine Premier League games.

    8) Adnan Januzaj's talent

    Few had heard of the kid before this season, but a magnificent brace saw his name sore. He is now a regular in the side at just 18 years old.

    9) Ashley Young has skipped the gym

    He loves the floor, this player. We all know he is lightweight but the way he throws himself to the ground is embarrassing.

    10) Giggs is losing it

    It's difficult for me to say, but Ryan Giggs has looks a shell of his former self. Obviously his age has taken its toll, but he has the worst pass success in the entire squad.
