Happy as Ashley? Danny Welbeck was all smiles, while Ashley Young kept his head down when leaving
Look at me! One excitable fan is pictured near Patrice Evra, while Wilfried Zaha seemed a world away
Take it in: The United stars were in Manchester watching a Jay-Z concert
Manchester United's players took a
break from trying to get their season back on track by taking in a Jay-Z
concert on Thursday.
Wilfried Zaha, Danny Welbeck, Ashley Young and Patrice Evra were all pictured leaving the concert in the city.
Welbeck
- fresh from his Champions League goal against Shakhtar Donetsk in
midweek - was all smiles after watching the hip hop act, but the other
three didn't look quite so enthused.
David Moyes' side
travel to Sunderland for the late kick-off on Saturday looking to bounce
back after three defeats in four Premier League games.
They lie in the bottom half, a huge eight points beneath leaders Arsenal, and desperately need points at the Stadium of Light.
West Brom humbled last year's champions at Old Trafford, who rarely threatened when they went 2-1 down.
Ups and downs: David Moyes has endured a tricky opening two months as United boss
Slump: United lost at home to West Brom after a crushing defeat at Manchester City the week before
But following the draw in Ukraine, which might have been more, United will start afresh against the Black Cats.
Meanwhile, Ryan Giggs has insisted that it is the players who are to blame for the sluggish start, not Moyes.
The
39-year-old moved to take the heat off his manager, and said: ‘I can’t
put my finger on what’s happened. We have just not played as well as we
can both individually and as a team.
Buoyant: Welbeck scored the equaliser in midweek
‘We know the quality in the dressing room. We’re the champions so we showed that quality last year and we have to show it again.
‘Sir
Alex was a great manager and a great influence on the team and the
club. You are going to miss someone like that. But I don’t think that is
an excuse when individuals aren’t playing as well as they can.
‘We are not playing well as a team. We haven’t got injury problems as we have had in the past - there is no excuse.’
