Five points for Manchester United to ponder ahead of their FA Cup tie

Manchester United have two aims this season. Finish in the top four of the Premier League – something that they are well on their way to doing despite the performances of late, and win the FA Cup.

The latter seems increasingly achievable as the competition progresses, with Chelsea, Manchester City, West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur all out – and that is just the start of the list.

Louis van Gaal’s men have a pretty winnable tie against Preston ahead of them if they want to get to the next round and take another step towards silverware – and after their midweek game, we think that there are a couple of changes Van Gaal needs to make.

With that in mind, we have come up with five points for the Red Devils to ponder ahead of their FA Cup tie.
