UNITED'S AMAZING RECORD AGAINST CHAMPIONS
United Review, the official matchday programme, examined the Reds' hugely impressive home record against teams who visited Old Trafford as the reigning champions.
Leicester City, of course, became the latest kings of England to be beaten by United, following the 4-1 victory for Jose Mourinho's men at the weekend, ensuring an overall post-War record of:
PLAYED: 52
WON: 29
DRAWN: 17
LOST: 6
GOALS FOR: 91
GOALS AGAINST: 38
Remarkably, United have only lost once at home to the title holders since the 1960s. Manchester City's 2-1 triumph in 2013 may have mattered little overall as the Reds' lead at the top of the Premier League table was only trimmed to 12 points in the April fixture. Yet the narrow reverse to the Blues remains the only loss since another derby defeat way back in March 1969.
1940s: Everton 3-0, Liverpool 2-0, Arsenal 2-0.
1950s: Portsmouth 0-2, Portsmouth 0-0, Tottenham 2-0, Arsenal 2-2, Wolves 2-4, Chelsea 3-0, Wolves 2-1.
1960s: Wolves 0-2, Burnley 6-0, Tottenham 1-0, Ipswich 0-1, Everton 5-1, Liverpool 3-0, Liverpool 2-2, Man City 0-1.
1970s: Leeds 2-2, Everton 2-0, Arsenal 3-1, Derby 3-0, Liverpool 0-0, Derby 1-1, Liverpool 0-0, Liverpool 2-0, Nottingham Forest 1-1.
1980s: Liverpool 2-1, Liverpool 0-0, Aston Villa 4-1, Liverpool 1-1, Liverpool 1-0, Liverpool 1-1, Everton 0-0, Liverpool 1-0, Everton 2-1, Liverpool 3-1, Arsenal 4-1.
1990s: Liverpool 1-1, Arsenal 1-1, Leeds 2-0, Blackburn 1-0, Arsenal 1-1.
2000s: Arsenal 2-0, Arsenal 2-0, Chelsea 1-0, Chelsea 1-1.
2010s: Chelsea 2-1, Man City 1-2, Man City 4-2, Chelsea 0-0, Leicester 4-1.

So, who's playing? A host of current and former superstars have been confirmed for the game, which will see United's Champions League-winning team of 2008 reunite to take on Carrick's All-Star XI. This is who is confirmed for the game at present:
United: Edwin van der Sar, Gary Neville, Wes Brown, Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidic, Mikael Silvestre, Patrice Evra, Michael Carrick (naturally), Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs, Ji-sung Park, Owen Hargreaves, Anderson (injured), Darren Fletcher, Wayne Rooney, Louis Saha, Dimitar Berbatov.

And who is managing? Sir Alex Ferguson will return to the Old Trafford dugout to manage his 2008 Champions League-winning United side. Carrick's former West Ham boss, Harry Redknapp, will also lead the All-Stars and he's excited for the occasion. ”I’m really looking forward to coming back to Old Trafford to celebrate what has been a terrific career," he told us. "Michael is a fantastic boy and a class act, both on and off the pitch. It will be great to see Sir Alex again too, he’s a friend of mine and we had some great battles down the years – mind you, he came out on top in most of them!" Fans attending the game can read the full interview in the official matchday programme, which will be on sale at the stadium.
A message from Mourinho... Speaking ahead of the testimonial, Jose said:“Michael is a phenomenal person and a true professional. He gives stability in our game and mental freedom to the other guys around him to be more attacking. He has a big understanding of the game and is a great role model for our younger players. This will be a fitting way for Michael and his family to celebrate his achievements over the past 11 years and for Michael to create a lasting legacy through his foundation.”
When and where can I watch it? Michael Carrick's testimonial at Old Trafford will take place on Sunday 4 June at 14:30 BST, and will be shown exclusively live in the MUTV app outside of the UK and Ireland. Fans in the UK and Ireland will be able to watch live coverage on Sky and Virgin Media platforms, including free-to-air Sky channel 418. Live coverage from the Theatre of Dreams starts at 13:30, with highlights and reaction available on-demand within the app from 23:00 BST.
Where is the money going? All monies raised after expenses will be distributed to his chosen charities through the newly-created Michael Carrick Foundation, itself a registered charity. The charities will be based in Manchester and Newcastle initially, focusing on young people and their development. Also benefitting will be projects of the Manchester United Foundation, which works across some of the most deprived areas of Greater Manchester, using the passion for the club to help and inspire youngsters.
