    Manchester United, Ibrahimovic; "Europa League football is killing our title challenge"

    Manchester United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has stated that Thursday night football in the Europa League is harming his sides Premier League title chances. Another huge round-trip to the Ukraine this week saw the Red Devils arrive in the early hours of Friday morning and the big Swede has stated that; “We don't have a lot of rest because these Thursdays are killing you, especially me. I am not used to playing Thursdays and now we have one day less to recover. We have to get back to work and play the new game on Sunday.”
     
    Jose Mourinho’s men have only scored 19 goals in 14 league games and are behind West Bromwich Albion and Crystal Palace in the goalscoring charts in the Premier League with Ibrahimovic making more appearances than any other outfield player. His goal on Thursday, which followed a first goal for the club from Henrikh Mkhitaryan, ensured the clubs progression into the last 32 of the competition.
