Young seeks more from in-form Reds

MANCHESTER United's dominance against Chelsea shocked even more than their win, but Ashley Young believes such a performance has been coming - and now the stand-in captain wants more.

An inability to kill off teams has cost Jose Mourinho's side dearly this term, leaving them scrapping for a top-four place rather than challenging for the Premier League title.

Those issues, along with United's Europa League exertions, meant few saw past Antonio Conte's table-toppers on Easter Sunday, but Chelsea were in for a rude awakening at Old Trafford.

The Blues failed to muster a single shot on target for the first time since September 2007 as United tactically strangled them, with Marcus Rashford and Ander Herrera securing a win more comprehensive than the 2-0 scoreline suggests.

Young was as proud of the display as he was to captain United for the first time, saying "every man was fantastic from start to finish" as his side stylishly ended a frustrating run of home draws.

"We have felt that kind of performance coming," the versatile 31-year-old said.

"Not a lot of people saw that scoreline coming or the type of game to be honest. We did."

Anderlecht will be in for a torrid time on Thursday if United replicate that form in the Europa League quarter-final second leg at Old Trafford.
