You know how the old saying goes, you wait ages for a bus and then two come along at once. Nine FA Cup ties in succession had brought challenges from fellow Premier League opposition until a surprise third round draw with Yeovil this year.That may not have been the plain sailing we’d perhaps have hoped [...]

Away points have been hard to come by for Louis van Gaal’s side this season, which will prove no different this Saturday with a vital trip to Loftus Road.
