Manchester United will need their best players to play at their best in a crucial week for Manchester United, who want to prove that they are a club that can fight for the top places in the Premier League, will have very significant clashes this week against two London teams that hold Champions League places.
The last game was very complicated for the Red Devils, they could not give a good version of the club's level, they looked for many alternatives, but the midfield did not work as expected, there was very little association in that game, it was not enough that Casemiro played against Newcastle, something was needed, and in large part was the level shown by his Brazilian compatriot, Fred, who was not a starter with the team five weeks ago.
Man Utd didn't win but he was in the Premier League team of the week
This player is still injured, will not be available to play against Spurs
The team could not win at home and lost important points in its process as a team contending for the top places, it was very evident because the Dane Christian Eriksen, and the Scot, Scott McTominay, were the duo that gave good performances in midfield when the team had a streak of four consecutive wins in the Premier League, without doubt Eriksen is the creative of this team.
Erik ten Hag told the media ahead of the Tottenham game that one of the players who was absent against Newcastle will be back with the Manchester United club, the Scot who has been a key part of the Dutch manager's style of play, announced that he was back and that is great news for the approach against Spurs.
Having him back will be very important, as he came on as a substitute in the Europa League game against Omonia and scored the 92nd minute winner that has given the team the peace of mind to continue their quest to reach the top qualifying spot in the European competition and is certainly a big factor when facing Antonio Conte's Tottenham.
