Man Utd stars put straight to work, Anthony Martial's promise and five-star Bangkok hub

Manchester United's players were put through their paces on the training pitch within hours of touching down in Bangkok for the first leg of their pre-season tour.

Former United skipper Bryan Robson, an ambassador for the club and part of the travelling party, was at the training ground to personally welcome every player before the session. New United boss Erik ten Hag looked relaxed, laughing and joking, as his staff took the players through a light training session, which started with stretching, bicycle work and running.

The players – including Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho and Bruno Fernandes - then moved on to some ball work in what was a light first session, following a 12-hour flight direct from Manchester to Bangkok. After that, the players took part in Rondos, the one-touch training exercise where one player is in the middle of a group and must intercept the ball, with ten Hag watching on intently.
