Manchester United are doing everything they can to improve after a difficult start to the season and did so on Saturday with a convincing 3-0 victory over Southampton, taking their Premier League points tally to six from four games.
This weekend they take on Crystal Palace at 5.30pm on Saturday, live on Sky Sports. It’s All Kicking Off! presenters Ian Ladyman and Chris Sutton have been discussing whether the Red Devils have been selected for TV again.
Erik ten Hag’s team have appeared live on television every week so far this season, with Ladyman citing the size of the club and the audiences they attract as the reason.
It sparked a conversation about the way football fans are treated like ‘suckers’ by the schedule makers, as United fans who have travelled to the game are unlikely to return home on Saturday night.

The co-hosts spoke candidly about how fans can make a difference, but also admitted they don’t expect anything to change for the benefit of match-going fans any time soon.
United, meanwhile, will be hoping to add three more points to their tally against a Palace team who are yet to win this season.
