Erik ten Hag and Manchester United wants to get good results. The team has not been at its best this season and as the weeks go by, the players and especially the coach are feeling the pressure from the fans to get a good result from Old Trafford and not only from home but also away from it. Given this, this weekend the team has an important challenge.
Furthermore, one of the things that stands out about the Dutchman's team is the quality of their squad. It should be noted that United decided to invest just under £200m to tackle this season's targets. One of the most prominent signings was Mason Mount, who has failed to establish himself in the team's midfield. On the other hand, Rasmus Hojlund has made a good impression in recent games.
Similarly, Andre Onana has not had the best performance. Despite this, the Cameroonian is fully trusted by Ten Hag to defend Manchester United's goal. Undoubtedly, many fans have demanded that Altay Bayindir be given the opportunity after several timely errors by Onana, especially in the first two UEFA Champions League matches.
However, it seems that the player is currently immovable for the Dutch coach. On the other hand, the starting lineup for this Sunday against Manchester City remains unknown. Most likely, Ten Hag could opt to repeat a similar line-up to the one against Copenhagen in the Champions League. At the moment, all that can be done is to speculate.
It should be noted that Christian Eriksen's good form and Casemiro's return could leave Sofyan Amrabat out of the starting lineup for this match. Without a doubt, Ten Hag would be prioritizing rotations in these times of crisis. Without a doubt, a great match is expected.
United XI: Onana, Reguilon, Maguire, Varane, Dalot, Eriksen, Casemiro, Rashford, Bruno Fernandes, Antony, Rasmus Hojlund
