(4–2–3) Zirkzee, Mainoo, and Garnacho will start for Manchester United against Liverpool. Here is the latest news on injuries and new players.
Manuel Ugarte should be able to play this coming weekend when Manchester United plays Liverpool in the Premier League.
Erik ten Hag’s team and Paris Saint-Germain agreed to a deal worth an initial £42 million for the Uruguayan player. On Wednesday, the player will have a physical with his new team.
But the Dutchman might need to change where he lives.
Mason Mount was taken off at halftime against Brighton, even though he had started United’s first two Premier League games of the season.
The former Chelsea player’s first season with the team was cut short by injury, and ten Hag said on Saturday that he didn’t want to take any risk with his health.
Ten Hag said after losing at the AMEX, “It was forced.” “He brought up a problem, and I don’t want to take a chance with him.” I can’t say right now how much of a worry it is.
When he talks to the press before a game later this week, the United manager is likely to give more information about Mount.
Rasmus Hojlund and Leny Yoro are still out for United, and Luke Shaw is also still no good. United doesn’t think Hojlund or Shaw will be able to play again until at least after the international break in September.
Diogo Dalot played left back in the first few games of the season, but Noussair Mazraoui is likely to stay at right back.
On the other hand, Matthijs de Ligt has yet to make his first start. He came off the bench against Fulham and Liverpool.
Ten Hag also has to make a big choice in the wide areas, where Alejandro Garnacho wants to start.Scott McTominay, on the other hand, may have already played his last game for the team because he is getting closer to moving to Napoli.
Arne Slot has quickly decided on the starting eleven he wants to use. Ryan Gravenberch and Diogo Jota will play important parts in midfield and attack, respectively.
The only change to the team for Sunday’s 2-0 win over Brentford was Ibrahima Konate replacing Jarell Quansah.
The young Liverpool player was substituted at halftime in the first game of the season against Ipswich. He wasn’t used last week because he hurt himself in training the week before.
Manchester United played Liverpool in a 4-2-3-1 formation.
