Workers climbing up the outside of Old Trafford today have been carrying out routine maintenance work and painting the steel girders around the stadium, rather than working on any specific issues as a result of the heavy rain that engulfed the stadium on Sunday.
A significant storm that started five minutes before the end of Manchester United's 1-0 defeat to Arsenal on Sunday caused leaks to appear all around the stadium once again, with videos posted to social media capturing the extent of the problem.
