Over three days starting this weekend Memphis Depay and Raheem Sterling should make their debuts for Manchester United and Manchester City. The new season’s narrative will have added intrigue with the subplot of how United’s £25m 21-year-old and City’s £49m 20-year-old compare over the next nine months. This yarn of the two young guns begins at Old Trafford on Saturday lunchtime when United host Tottenham Hotspur. Depay is expected to line up in Louis van Gaal’s strongest XI as he did on the summer tour of the US, where he played as the No10, with Wayne Rooney as the central striker. City are at West Bromwich Albion on Monday. There Sterling will start his mission to form an attacking trio with David Silva and Sergio Agüero (who will miss out because of a lack of match fitness) as effective as Barcelona’s three amigos, Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez and Neymar.
