The Daily Mail reported that the renovation of Old Trafford Stadium in the summer has already played a role.

Manchester United's 2-1 victory over Chelsea coincided with heavy rains in Manchester. Many looked nervously into the sky, worried that the famous leaky ceiling of Old Trafford Stadium would once again see a waterfall-like swell.

But the maintenance work implemented in the summer obviously played a role. Sir Ratcliff, who watched the game after the talks with Amorin, was mostly unwet with the audience.
