In an effort to get back on track, Manchester United will face Chelsea in tonight’s Premier League match.
Manchester United is itching to get back to Old Trafford after three challenging away games last week.
Erik ten Hag can only hope the entire stadium gets behind his team after a demanding week when they need a focal point and something to believe in.
Mauricio Pochettino is his opponent for the Manchester United position. The question of whether Chelsea manager Erik ten Hag feels relieved or devastated is unanswered given the extreme pressure he is under.
Erik ten Hag’s choice
First, the most recent injury. The management has a lot of big decisions to make. Christian Eriksen, Mason Mount, and Jonny Evans have all been declared unavailable by the club; there has been no word on when they may return.
That leaves Ten Hag with the unenviable task of reusing the same lineup that faced Newcastle last weekend. However, upcoming alterations are visible.
Andre Onana will keep his starting position in goal, that much is clear. After that, we observe that central defenders Luke Shaw and Harry Maguire are sticking around, having been hailed as the team’s sole two solid performers in the match against Newcastle.
After making a mistake against Newcastle, Aaron Wan-Bissaka should continue to play right back. Against Raheem Sterling, the opposing winger, he has a good track record.
After a solid performance as a substitute against Newcastle, Sergio Reguilon might replace Ashley Williams on the left side.
Even though there are a few more midfield changes, Kobbie Mainoo will start for the third time in the league, and the first time at home. Everything will be well with him.
In an effort to impose more positional discipline and possession, Sofyan Amrabat will replace Scott McTominay and play beside him.
Bruno Fernandes, the captain, will also start on a high note for the club and will be hoping to set an example.
We anticipate that there will be a pair of shifts in the assault. Only the master of overhead kicks, Alejandro Garnacho, will start for the first team.
Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial will not be starting. It is rightfully theirs. Instead, Rasmus Hojlund will spearhead the attack, with Antony, who has played better in recent games, occupying the right wing position.
Fighters are what Ten Hag needs on his team. Rasmus Hojlund and Antony will leave it all on the table. Is it going to cut it? For the time being, it’s preferable to have a fight than none at all.
