Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson says that he is not convinced about Manchester United’s start to the Premier League season enough to favour them for the title this season.

United sit top of the Premier League after a perfect start to their campaign, winning their first three matches without conceding a goal.

However, Arsenal legend Merson believes that the Red Devils are not the finished article – saying he thinks Jose Mourinho will want to see more from his side.

“I haven’t really bought into Manchester United so far this season.” Said Merson on Sky Sports News.

“They won games by an impressive margin, yes, but I don’t think they’ve clicked yet.”

“They scored three goals in three minutes against Swansea, West Ham were comfortable for 25 minutes before throwing the towel in and, as I said before, Leicester had good chances at Old Trafford where a top quality team would have punished them.”

However, the pundit did admit that United look a better team than they did last season.

“United do look a better team than last year.”

“They look strong, they look quick with plenty of pace on the break but I don’t think Jose Mourinho will see his side as the finished article.”

“Maybe he will stick himself in goal after his performance in the #Game4Grenfell – just not for penalties.” Merson joked, referring to a charity game Mourinho played in.

“Joking aside, if they can go to Stoke and win then fair play to them.”

“The bet365 Stadium has always been a hard place to go but I can see United edging it.”
