Just read this on an email sent to Man Utd season ticket holders etc.

'Marouane Fellaini allowed Schweinsteiger to take his favoured shirt and moves to no.27, the number he wore at his first club Standard Liege, while Luke Shaw swaps no.3 for 23 as a personal preference.

Shaw explained the change to MUTV, saying: "It’s the number I feel comfortable with and it’s probably the number that I want to carry on with until I finish my career.”'

What a load of bulls testicles, what bloody difference does the number on your back make.

It makes sense for Shaw to change his shirt number while changing his kit size...

You know what footballers are like, superstition routine rule.

Luke has history with the number 23 having worn it for Southampton and England previously.

Spurs looking great in possession here. I guess if you're gonna beat United at home, your best chance is the first game of the season.

United lead against the run of play, Premier League

Poor from Rooney though, you're Rooney, hit it first time man. Nice to see 'consistent' refereeing has made a return, tackles himself and gets a foul, logic.

Pretty dire opening game, Spurs were non existent when they came back out, no team really offered anything, Spurs attack late on but it's far too late, first time Romero has really been tested. Be a completely undeserved point if spurs score. The way I see United's goal is, it obviously isn't a foul but regardless, if Rooney hits it first time it's in, if Kyle Walker doesn't catch him up, it's in, Kyle walker does get behind him and it's in anyway.

Spurs bottom of the league, United top of the league. Bound to change though

Spuds bottom of the league - love it

Where is old Arthur when you need him.

Just on the tram back from OT. Very poor game, both sides will struggle this season unless there is dramatic improvement. On the plus side I did pop into a bar at OT cricket ground and saw the last Australian wicket go down.
