Manchester United name their first Player of the Month for 2016/17

Manchester United Football Club have made an excellent start to life under Jose Mourinho, having won their first four competitve games under the guidance of their new boss. The self-proclaimed Special One made some truly inspiring signings, that certainly got United on their way.

Perhaps the best bit of business Manchester United will make this summer was ironically the player we knew the least about; Eric Bailly.

The Ivorian centre-half has been nothing short of sensational since making the £30million move from Sevilla, and he’s really given us a massive boost defensively despite only being 22-years-old.

Those performances have been duly rewarded by the United fans all over the globe, as they’ve named him Player of the Month for August, which is a huge honour for a man in his debut season in a completely new environment.

It’s great to see him doing so well, and the Old Trafford crowd have really taken a liking to the young man. If he continues to develop and progress at such a rapid rate, we’ll have a real player on our hands in five years.
