About as routine as Manchester United and Jose Mourinho could have hoped for on the opening day as they sweep aside Bournemouth. Juan Mata, Wayne Rooney and Zlatan Ibrahimovic get on the scoresheet, as they overcome a Bournemouth side whose battles will be better served against their bottom half rivals.

Well that is all we have time for on this live text. Head over to our live coverage of Arsenal vs Liverpool, which kicks off in around half and hour, to continue the football fiesta. Until next time, goodbye.

Into added on time at the Vitality Stadium, where there will be four minutes.

Now Wayne Rooney makes way for Memphis Depay. Daley Blind takes the armband. Less than two minutes left and Bournemouth's race looks very much run.

Bournemouth have improved since the goal but United look relatively comfortable as we enter the final five minutes. Morgan Schneiderlin replaces Anthony Martial.

Great stat on the free-scoring Swede.

Goal: Bournemouth 1-3 Manchester United (Adam Smith)

Hope for Bournemouth? A quarter of the game remaining and they have a foothold as Adam Smith cuts inside in the penalty area and on his wrong side lashes the ball high into the net beyond De Dea. The clean sheet has gone, but will the three points follow?

Goal: Bournemouth 0-3 Manchester United (Zlatan Ibrahimovic)

Probably the perfect afternoon for Manchester United, and now one of their new strikers gets in on the act. Zlatan Ibrahimovic runs onto loose ball and though his shot lacks power it has all the direction required to roll past Boruc and into the corner. A first Premier League goal for the Swede on his full debut.

Goal: Bournemouth 0-2 Manchester United (Wayne Rooney)

Three points look to be heading to Old Trafford as the away side double their lead. Valencia's cross from the right picks out Martial, who takes an almighty swing at the ball with his cross-shot falling nicely for Rooney, who heads back across Boruc and into the corner.

Rooney now wants a penalty are alleging he was clipped from behind by Harry Arter. There was the slightest bit of contact according to the replay, but not enough surely to give a penalty. Those appeals are waved away, and rightly so.

Clearest chance of the second half, and it comes for United. Steve Cook can't deal with the bouncing ball and Rooney muscles his way through the Bournemouth defender but Boruc denies him from close range.

Back underway at the Vitality Stadium. No changes at the break.

Half time: Bournemouth 0-1 Manchester United

The broadcasters Sky Sports allow viewers to access highlights of matches via the red button, but never has access to such interactivity been so benign. The only moment of note has come from Juan Mata, who gave Jose Mourinho his first goal and United boss as he capitalised on Simon Francis' defensive error. Otherwise, it has been a pretty dreary affair with plenty of ring-rusty performances from both sides.

Goal: Bournemouth 0-1 Manchester United (Juan Mata)

Jose Mourinho's United tenure has lift off. Early season rustyness strikes as Francis' back pass is short, Boruc comes out to meet the ball as Mata closed on, but only ended up striking his own defending an allowing the Spaniard to tap into an empty net. Awful goal for Bournemouth to concede after such a tight first half.

Ander Herrera curls a cross towards the back post but it evades the likes of Fellaini and Martial on the back post. Early days, but an inauspicious start from the visitors.

Marouane Fellaini's blond hair is illuminating an otherwise poor game so far. He gets involved in his weekly scuffle, this time with Harry Arter but the height difference ensures the handbags don't go beyond some pushing and shoving.

Harry Arter hammers over from 25 yards for Bournemouth, who have had plenty of graft but little thrust. United have looked relatively calm at the back. In all, it's been an underwhelming first half.

An effort in anger from Manchester United at last, coming at the end of the best move of the match as Valencia escaped in behind, and when he pull back to Mata found Rooney, he produced a low save from Boruc.

No shots on target in their opening quarter on the south coast. The most exciting league in the world delivers again?

Calum Wilson escapes the attention of Daley Blind and shoots goalwards, but the referee pulls it back for a foul on the Netherlands defender. Wilson beat De Gea with the eventual shot, striking the right-hand post.

First we've seen of Zlatan Ibrahimovic as he flies at an Antonio Valencia cross, which Simon Francis heads clear as the Swede closed in. A clash of heads between the two leads to a break in play.

Low key start it must be said from both teams. United keeping the ball well inside the Bournemouth half. Juan Mata tries to feed Wayne Rooney but his pass is headed clear. Big season for those two players, you feel.

Half a chance for the hosts after four minutes. Daniels' deep cross is miss-controlled by Luke Shaw and Wilson almost capitalises but shovels the ball wide.

Manchester United gets things underway at Bournemouth.

Teams on their way out at the Vitality Stadium, which despite being in the region of 13,000 always created a good atmosphere last season. Blue sky overhead on the south coast, but will it be Bournemouth or Manchester United celebrating in the sun? Updates on the way.

Sky Sports have just been showing their interview with Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is certainly the man who is the centre of attention this afternoon. With the Swede finally in the Premier League, can he replicate the brilliance we've seen across Europe, at Manchester United? It will be fascinating to see how Mourinho fits him into his United team.

Just in case you have been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, yesterday was Super Saturday at Rio 2016, where Mo Farah repeated his heroics from London 2012 by taking gold in the men's 10,000m. Jessica-Ennis Hill and Greg Rutherford both won medals in the heptathlon and long jump. Head in this direction to relive another memorable night for British sport.

Mourinho surveying the scene ahead of kick-off.....

Eddie Howe will be feeling this is the perfect time to play Manchester United, as Jose Mourinho attempts to impose his style. Bournemouth lost six of their last eight games after securing survival, which took the gloss off an encouraging campaign, but they will be hoping a summer to refresh will lead to quick start to the new season.

Last December, Bournemouth recorded perhaps the most famous victory in their first season in the top flight, beating Manchester United 2-1 on home turf. Can the south coast club repeat that feat this afternoon and update Mourinho's bow?

So let's pick the bones out of that bout of team news.

Bournemouth hand a first start to two of their summer signings, Jordon Ibe and Lewis Cook. Brad Smith and Nathan Ake are on the bench.

Jose Mourinho hands Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Eric Bailly their Premier League debuts. Henrikh Mkhitaryan is on the bench alongside Marcus Rashford.

A debut for Jordon Ibe for Bournemouth....

Jose Mourinho's first team as Manchester United boss....

The new Premier League season got underway yesterday with seven matches, which included Leicester City beginning their title defence at newly-promoted Hull City and Pep Guardiola taking charge of his first game in English football. For a round-up of all the goings on, head this way to catch up on all the results.

After such a lengthy spell out last season, these are the afternoons which Callum Wilson will have targetting on his road to recovery. Big day for him.

A watching brief today for the world's most expensive player, but he has offered his support to his new teammates...

Team news should be with us in around 20 minutes or so, but let's have a look at how each side should line up this afternoon.

Bournemouth are without Junior Stanislas due to injury but as mentioned previously, new signing Jordon Ibe is in line for his debut after his £15m move from Liverpool. Brad Smith, another arrival from Anfield, could also make his first appearance.

United are without world record signing Paul Pogba due to suspension, while defender Chris Smalling is also unavailable following his sending off in the FA Cup final. New additions Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Eric Bailly could all make their Premier League bows.

If the Rio 2016 Olympic Games are not quenching your thirst for sporting drama, then the Premier League has returned right on time to satisfy those eager for another fix of Europe's most exciting division. Of all the new managers taking their bows in the top flight this season, none is more anticipated that Jose Mourinoh's arrival at Manchester United. The Portuguese boss has the job he has always craved and after a high-spending summer the club are expected to return to the summit of English football.

Mourinho kicks-off his tenure at Old Trafford with a clash against a young pretender in Eddie Howe, whose Bournemouth side inflicted defeat over Chelsea last December - prior to the twice Champions League winner's sacking later in the month. Howe was interviewed for the England job during the summer, such is his stock, but avoiding second season syndrome is perhaps his biggest challenge after an impressive first campaign.

Team news and all the build-up ahead of the 1:30pm BST kick-off, on the way.
