BBC Sport pundit Troy Deeney has named one “dominant” former Manchester United star who is “playing really well” in his Premier League Team of the Week.
Manchester United are in the tail end of their 2024-25 Premier League season and the Red Devils have only three matches left in their current league campaign.
The Red Devils are 15th in the Premier League table and United can no longer climb back into the top half before their lacklustre season is out.
United will end the 2024-25 season with their worst finish in the Premier League era and Ruben Amorim has struggled to turn around the Red Devils’ league form.
The Red Devils have won only 10 Premier League matches from 35 league fixtures and United have lost a whopping 16 times in the current campaign.
Ruben Amorim’s men were back in Premier League action on Sunday afternoon and United lost 4-3 to Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium.
United have now switched their attention back to their Europa League campaign and the Red Devils are on the verge of reaching the 2025 final of the tournament.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka signed for West Ham last summer after Manchester United allowed the 27-year-old former Red Devils defender to leave Old Trafford.
United secured a £15m transfer fee for Aaron Wan-Bissaka and the Hammers right-back inked a seven-year deal with Premier League side West Ham in 2024.
Wan-Bissaka had fallen down the pecking order at United after former Red Devils boss Erik ten Hag preferred Diogo Dalot ahead of him on the right flank.
The West Ham star has been able to secure regular first-team football at the London Stadium and Wan-Bissaka has made 35 appearances for the Hammers this season.
Wan-Bissaka picked up an assist after he set up Jarrod Bowen in West Ham’s 1-1 Premier League draw against Tottenham at the London Stadium on Sunday.
Speaking in his BBC Sport column, Troy Deeney said: “He’s just been dominant.
“I love watching him play, it looks like he has that freedom back.
“Obviously, he had a difficult time at Manchester United but you’re starting to see now at West Ham he’s coming up with assists, he’s passing forwards and he’s playing really well.
“It’s just nice to see him smiling.”

Aaron Wan-Bissaka lifted both the League Cup and the FA Cup under Erik ten Hag and he admitted that he was thrilled to add major silverware to his trophy cabinet.
Speaking to Sky Sports in 2024, he said: “I’m proud. The whole journey. Whatever it’s come with. The ups and downs.
“Being able to get two cups out of it. Going through that experience was amazing.”
Wan-Bissaka arrived at Old Trafford under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after he was signed from Crystal Palace in 2019 and he made 190 appearances for United in his spell.
