Manchester United suffer another blow at Old Trafford
These are not the best of times for Manchester United as they have suffered yet another blow in their quest for a top-four finish in the Premier League this season.
For the umpteenth time in recent weeks, Manchester United let another half-time lead slip as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Southampton at Old Trafford.
Che Adams' goal early in the second half cancelled out Jadon Sancho's first Premier League goal in front of his home fans as United wasted the chance to move back up to fourth.
It is the fourth time in six games that United have failed to win after being ahead at the interval, an unfortunate habit for Ralf Rangnick's side that could prove costly.
Manchester United have dropped four points in each of their last two Premier League games.

United were never comfortable and there were chances to win it - the brilliant Broja getting his attempted chip wrong and Stuart Armstrong blazing over when well placed.
The draw was the least that they deserved. Four points from two away games against Tottenham and Manchester United represents a fine week's work.
Manchester United host Brighton on Tuesday, February 15; while Southampton take on Everton at St Mary's next Saturday.
