Manchester United have officially appointed Mauricio Pochettino as their new manager, with the Argentine set to begin work on 18 November after the current international break.
Pochettino’s first major challenge will arrive just five days later, when Manchester United travel to Anfield to face Liverpool on 23 November.
The fixture will provide an immediate test for the new manager, although Manchester United won both league meetings between the sides last season. They recorded a 2-1 victory away from home before securing a 3-2 win in the return match.
