    More from Jose Mourinho, speaking to BBC Sport: "It was really important for us. We lost two points in last match at home and had three consecutive draws so we needed the points.

    Tommex: What Leicester City did last season was all luck. Back to reality this season. Hope they don't sack Ranieri.

    Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho: "I think we played like we normally play. We played well and tried to win. They were a difficult team but that is something we are used too."

    On the battle for the top four: "I don't look to others. If we had beat Hull and drawn with Leicester, they are still positive points. 

    "We drew with Hull and beat Leicester. We are still in the same position but we are closer to the others so we keep fighting."

  11. 'Terrible, embarrassing'published at 18:09 Greenwich Mean Time 5 February 2017

    Strong words from Leicester keeper Kasper Schemichel, who says everyone at the club needs to "stand up and be counted" otherwise they are going down.

    He tells Sky Sports: "First 40 minutes we played OK then after that unacceptable. It is not good enough and sums our season up at the moment. 

    "Let's not talk about last season. It's gone. We need to stand up and be counted. There are a lot of factors that go into it but this season has not been good right from the start. 

    "I am not commentating on newspaper speculation. I know what is going on in the dressing room, we are a group of players low on confidence but not low on fight. It is not a comfortable situation. It has been terrible, embarrassing. 

    "It is time for each one of us - from the top to the bottom of this club - to be counted. If we don't we will be relegated."

    Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata: "The first was an incredible goal and after we played very good and scored twice more. We are happy today because today we took the chances.

    Henrik Mkhitaryan, who scored United's first goal: "We prepared before the game that if it doesn't work with two strikers to change formation and that is what we did.

    "It was not something new for us. In many games we have changed easily. We did good after the (formation) change. We have been trying to have more chances and to score more and it worked."

    Leicester are in massive trouble. Them and Crystal Palace are in free-fall.

    They were in the game for 40 minutes but after Huth's error in the first half they went to pieces.

    United came out after the break, scored through Mata and then it was men against boys. It's a big win for United but Leicester are really looking at relegation this season if they don't liven up.

    I can't feel sorry for Leicester as not many fans will witness their side win the Premier League but equally it would be a shame for them to go down after what they did last season.

    How much was Mahrez valued at last season? 

    If you had flown in from the moon you would say he was the worst player on the pitch.
