Man United enlist Clarkson’s Farm star to fix pitch

Can he play upfront too?

Manchester United welcomed a special guest to help prep the Old Trafford pitch for their game against Chelsea on Wednesday night. Kaleb Cooper, one of the starts in Amazon Prime Video's hit series Clarkson's Farm, is a boyhood United fan and was given the opportunity to grace the hallowed turf to make sure it's looking perfect ahead of the Premier League showdown. https://twitter.com/fourfourtwo/status/1731954128450969947?s=46&t=wtchfyoSDoTFkPPQMAXUBw United are in desperate need of a win after a toothless display on Saturday saw them fall to a 1-0 defeat in Newcastle. To make matters worse, reports on Monday claimed that as many as 50 per cent of the current squad have become disillusioned with Erik ten Hag's style of play and have even questioned some of the decisions to sign certain players. A win for the Red Devils could move them to within two points of fourth-placed Aston Villa - who also play on Wednesday night when they take on United's neighbours Manchester City.
