It’s still there.
Right now, Jose Mourinho must be a happy man because after a horrendous recent run of form, his Manchester United side are back to winning ways after their 4-1 demolition of champions Leicester City at Old Trafford. The Special One decided to drop Wayne Rooney and the decision reaped dividends as United exploded out of the blocks.
Goals from Chris Smalling, Juan Mata, Marcus Rashford and a very welcome strike from record signing Paul Pogba gave United a commanding 4-0 lead at the break and despite Demarai Gray’s wonderful consolation goal, Claudio Ranieri knew that any second-half comeback was impossible as he went into the changing room at half-time.
The game was finished as a contest as the teams headed into the break, Ranieri even withdrew Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez ahead of their Champions League tie with Porto, but the Premier League’s social media team still had to do their very best to entice viewers to keep on watching.
Here’s the image they used to promote the second-half and it doesn’t take a genius to spot the glaring issue.

Plenty of people were quick to point out the unfortunate choice of imagery.
We can’t help but think of this.
