Chelsea host Manchester United in a heavyweight clash between top four hopefuls in the Premier League on Saturday at Stamford Bridge.

This is going to be a tight, tense clash and there will be contrasting styles of play on show. In midfield Scott McTominay could come in to give Fred a rest, while the front four has a great balance about it so expect that to stay the same. —– Casemiro —– Fred —– That said, Potter could start Cucurella as a left-sided center back and Sterling could play as a hybrid left wing-back as his lineups are so flexible. —– Aubameyang —– —– Kepa —–

Man Utd have paid out £155million in dividends to shareholders in seven years and another significant sum was paid in the last year.

Our dividend policy is subject to annual review by the Board of Directors." A supporter asked how the dividend payments were justified given the losses made the club and on the back of an "incredibly poor year." That takes the total dividend payments to £155million in seven years and the policy has angered supporters who have criticised the Glazer family for a lack of investment in the club and their absent ownership.

Shola Shoretire made his first-team debut for Man United in February 2021 and he's a key player in the academy set-up.

He knows that he's started to perform in the last few weeks. Shola's definitely in that mix of players." There was interest in him on loan but the club felt for his development he needs to be in and around the first-team. "I thought he [Shoretire] was excellent from start to finish," Binnion told the Manchester Evening News . "I think he assisted the first goal. Binnion admitted that Shoretire's pre-season wasn't ideal but that he is now beginning to deliver, which could impress Erik ten Hag.

Chelsea news: Graham Potter has rotated frequently since becoming head coach but must strike a balance between that flexibility and a meritocracy.

Potter has shown throughout his coaching career an ability to connect with players on a deeper level, which will be needed in the next stage of his career. [Thomas Tuchel](https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/news/graham-potter-chelsea-thomas-tuchel-25309548), good communication and liberal rotation earned him praise internally in the first few months in charge. Mainly from the right, he looked to start attacks and dribble past a well-drilled Brentford defence that consistently closed any gaps for Chelsea to exploit. There have been a mixture of reasons for that number: the need to rotate in what is a congested schedule, injury issues and Potter's natural tendency to switch personnel depending on the game. Although Chelsea's five-game winning streak ended with a 0-0 draw, the American offered an urgency to Chelsea's attacking play that had been lacking before his introduction. Potter is unlikely to be a coach who settles on 14 players as Jose Mourinho or Antonio Conte once did at Chelsea.

Young Chelsea midfielder Leo Castledine joined the senior squad's training session on Thursday ahead of Saturday's Manchester United clash.

To make up the numbers, a couple of academy players, including Leo Castledine and Silko Thomas, took part in the training session.
