Wolves part ways with manager O’Neil after loss against Ipswich
Wolves have confirmed the departure of manager O'Neil on Sunday following their 2-1 loss against Ipswich Town in the Premier League.
Manchester United play West Ham United in their first game of the 2017-18 Premier League season and both sets of managers have announced their starting line-ups for Sunday’s game at Old Trafford, Manchester.
Jose Mourinho has made several changes to the side that lost 2-1 to Real Madrid in the Super Cup last week, with Eric Bailly, Daley Blind, Phil Jones, Juan Mata and Marcus Rashford the beneficiaries in a 4-2-3-1 formation.
