It was probably the right call.

Jose Mourinho has made one change for the visit of Leicester City. Manchester United play the former Premier League champions in Saturday's late kick-off, and will be hoping to continue their perfect start to the season. Mourinho's side have won both of their games 4-0, against West Ham United and Swansea City respectively, and will confirm their place at the top of the table with a win over the Foxes. After starting the season in such great form, competition for places is strong, particularly among United's attacking players. Anthony Martial has scored twice in two games, despite not starting either, and has now forced his way into Mourinho's team. The French forward is United's only change for the game against Leicester.

Rashford has played well in United's opening games, but many feel Martial merits a start on the back of his goalscoring displays from the bench. https://twitter.com/Abdoul__Jnr/status/901467515179716609 https://twitter.com/jamowalt/status/901467459231895553 https://twitter.com/fourlimbsbeats/status/901467435647238145 https://twitter.com/jhuff319/status/901467428890316800 https://twitter.com/JamesLynn8/status/901467405502869506 https://twitter.com/KillerRashford/status/901467303023443971 https://twitter.com/MrTomMcDermott/status/901472056814051328 https://twitter.com/JCommiss/status/901467344907718657
