What happened. Manchester United submitted a 23-man Premier League squad, leaving out Kobbie Mainoo and Leny Yoro, who are eligible as Under-21 players.

• Mainoo and Yoro can still play in the Premier League due to Under-21 rules.
• United have three points from their first two games and face Everton next.
• The club could have named up to 25 players but chose only 23.

The omissions are procedural, as both players qualify as Under-21s for the season.
