Rangers great Ally McCoist spotted a tactical change by Manchester United boss Ralf Rangnick for their win against Burnley.

United leapfrogged Tottenham into sixth spot in the Premier League after proving to be too good against Sean Dyche's side at Old Trafford on Thursday night.

McCoist spotted that his compatriot Scott McTominay was on hand to always mark Burnley's towering centre-forward Chris Wood whenever the visitors went route one.

And McCoist noticed that this allowed Eric Bailly and Harry Maguire to kept their shape in the backline.

He said: "This is an interesting tactic there.

"When they're [Burnley] going long, McTominay is actually dropping back to pick up Wood, which allows the two centre-backs to keep position.

"Quite intelligent really."
