Manchester United are finally starting to look like themselves again, and the turn in form couldnt have come quick enough for manager Jose Mourinho or their fans.Theyll try to keep that form going against struggling Stoke City at Old Trafford on Sunday.After starting with three wins from three and two clean sheets, the Red Devils (4-0-2) lost three consecutive matches, causing some pundits to question whether The Special One had lost his touch. But fortunes change quickly in the Premier League and all it took was a visit from defending champion Leicester City last weekend to seemingly put things right.United collected goals from unlikely sources in defender Chris Smalling and Juan Mata, favored in place of Wayne Rooney. Marcus Rashford and Paul Pogba also found the net in the 4-1 victory.They then followed with a 1-0 win over Zorya Luhansk on Thursday in Europa League play courtesy of a lone 69th-minute strike from Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Its not often United find themselves playing Europa matches instead of Champions League fixtures, but Mourinho stressed that victory is still vital.The game was difficult but it was important to win, he said.Just days after speculation swirled about Rooneys future with the club, Mourinho commented on the England internationals contribution to Thursdays victory.He was laughing and said he made a great assist. He gave me what the team needed at the time, which was a second presence in the box, Mourinho said.Hes more of a striker than Juan (Mata), and Juan went more to the right-hand side (when Wayne came on). We started the game with a very good team, and I also had players on the bench to give me solutions for everything.Stoke City (0-2-4), meanwhile, remain desperate for points while entering this clash second from the bottom in the table. Mark Hughes squad has looked lifeless on the attack and equally shaky at the back, having conceded four goals three times already this season.Following a 4-1 rout at the hands of Crystal Palace on Sept. 18, the Potters claimed a point in last weeks 1-1 draw with West Bromwich Albion. They probably should have taken all three as a 77th-minute strike from Joe Allen was canceled out by a stoppage-time equaliser from Salomon Rondon.Despite another frustrating result, Hughes chose to take the positives from his sides performance.We are a little bit upset, clearly, because we totally deserved to win the game, Hughes said. We just lost a little bit of concentration right at the end, which can happen, and unfortunately we have been punished for that once again.To be honest we were comfortable dealing with their balls into the box for the best part, and I honestly thought we were going to see it out -- our efforts on the day deserved to be rewarded with three points.Both sides claimed home victories in this fixture last season, but history is certainly not on the Potters side. Stoke have never taken a point at Old Trafford, losing all eight Premier League visits by a combined score of 25-6. LaMarcus Aldridge Jersey .

He finished ninth in the standings that season.I dont know if thats good or bad, Sadler said, unsure if it gives him any sort of edge over 11 drivers who have no playoff experience.Its not like Im a seasoned quarterback that can read the defense better than a rookie quarterback coming in. I think thats when experience plays a part, he said. I think now its just about which teeams can get their cars the fastest, what driver can get the best information and not make mistakes on the track.ddddddddddddI feel like everybody thats a part of this Chase, all 12 guys, can do just as good a job as anybody else, no matter their age or where theyre from or how many years theyve raced.---PAGENAUD-PETIT LE MANSFresh off his IndyCar championship, Simon Pagenaud has already lined up another race.Pagenaud will join Action Express Racings points-leading No. 31 Corvette at Petit Le Mans on Oct. 1.
