PRESSURE ON BRU WILL MOUNT IF HE DOESN'T START TO SHINE
Manchester Evening News|September 28, 2024
THE likelihood is the United squad against Tottenham will be the same 20 players who disembarked the team coach at Selhurst Park last week.

PRESSURE ON BRU WILL MOUNT IF HE DOESN'T START TO SHINE

The line-up is unlikely to be the same.

Alejandro Garnacho was enterprising again off the bench against Twente and Marcus Rashford's confident body language augurs well. Amad, effective in the win at Southampton, has struggled to sustain that performance level.

Matthijs de Ligt's recall is inevitable and so is Kobbie Mainoo's. The four-day gap between matches could extend Christian Eriksen's starting run to five games amid fine form that was abruptly halted by Twente right-back Sam Lammers.

Bruno Fernandes' form is dipping rather than rising. His assist count stands at four, though two were against Barnsley and one was in the Community Shield. Those two oneon-ones he passed up on the opening night against Fulham are sliding doors moments for a player whose carelessness audibly irked United supporters against Twente on Wednesday night.

Fernandes looks understandably fatigued. It has been coming. He made 64 appearances for United and Portugal last season after 74 in 2022-23.
