STOKE 2 MANCHESTER UNITED 1: Charlie Adam's Double Sinks United

Charlie Adam struck twice either side of half-time to lift Mark Hughes' men from the relegation zone and consign Manchester United to their eight Premier League loss of the campaign.

Both sides struggled to cut out any clear-cut opportunities in the early stages, and Stoke limiting Man Utd to just a few half-chances would have pleased Mark Hughes, who hasn't seen his side keep a clean sheet since 14th December 2013.

Manchester United lost both centre-half's in the first 20 minutes of the game, which forced David Moyes alter his team selection, dropping Michael Carrick into centre-half, Wayne Rooney into central midfield and Danny Welbeck alongside Van Persie up-front.
