    Memphis Depay scuffs the free-kick which hits the wall and rolls away.

    A 25p effort from a £25m man.

    Manchester United must feel short-changed after shelling out a bucket load of money on him last summer. PSV Eindhoven laughing all the way to the bank.

    A free-kick in a good area...

    Norwich 0-0 Man Utd

    Norwich won't get many opportunities to get at the Manchester United goal today and when they do, will need to take their chances.

    Former United man Robbie Brady curls in a free-kick but it's too long and straight into the hands of David de Gea. 

    Poor.

    "Chris Smalling rose fantastically well there, he was nearly level with the crossbar, but just couldn’t get above it."

    Norwich 0-0 Man Utd

    Manchester United's best chance of the game and they really should be ahead.

    Juan Mata's inswinging corner is met by the leaping centre-back Chris Smalling, who gets above Cameron Jerome but can only head over the crossbar from around six yards out.

    What a chance.

    Jesse Lingard then forces John Ruddy into his first save and it's easy for the English goalkeeper. He can't mess that one up.

    Lewis Wilson: Why does LVG insist on playing Lingard in the middle and Mata on the wing!! It's like putting De Gea up front and Rooney in goal

    "Where Norwich have fallen short is they have been getting into crossing positions but are not getting anyone into the box to supplement Cameron Jerome."

    A brilliant headed clearance from Norwich striker Cameron Jerome, making sure of his defensive responsibilities with Wayne Rooney closing in.

    Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has not had a shot to deal with since the fifth minute, when he pushed away Jerome's header.

    "The one thing that worries me about Norwich is defensively. Sebastian Bassong has been very shaky the last few weeks. If I was Wayne Rooney, I would get around him if I could."

    Where's the service for Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney? He's playing up front today and has had just eight touches of the ball.

    BBC Radio 5 Live

    Former Norwich striker Dean Ashton on 5 live Sport: "Norwich deserve to be where they are in the table. Throughout the season they haven't done enough in either box, defensively or attacking, which is why they are in the position that they are. 

    "But they still have a chance of escaping, which is why today is such a huge game. And Norwich often do perform better against the bigger teams. They puff themselves up for the contest and don't feel the pressure of playing one of the sides around them."

    Manchester United supporters are taunting their opposite numbers.

    "You're not famous anymore," is the riposte.

    The best action of the match thus far.

    And once again... Under LvG United have no identity, no creativity and no luck. Wrong man in charge.

    LVG mustn't want to stay at Old Trafford next year! Can't see where a United goal will come from today!

    A very scrappy game so far, no rhythm or tempo to it.

    Norwich in Norfolk, obviously. Not Suffolk! This game is putting my head in a spin and not in a good way. Get me them shades from Louis van Gaal for me to chill behind. Like him, I'd rather be on a beach somewhere too.

    Nope, Matteo Darmian cannot continue and it looks a bad one, he may be out of the FA Cup final.

    Cameron Borthwick-Jackson comes on in his place.
