The confirmed MUFC XI for a huge Champions League game vs Atalanta is now in. Let’s get right into the all-important team news.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s job may be hanging on by a thread, but one thing you cannot question is the players’ belief in their manager. They certainly worked their socks off for him last time out.
There’s something special at European nights, they’re what this sport is all about. Manchester United Football Club thrive under the pressure and make no mistake about it, a positive result here is vital.
Ahead of the game, all the talk was about whether Solskjaer will stick with the five at the back formation. Despite Victor Lindelof’s injury absence, the gaffer has done exactly that.
The team news has now been confirmed, with Solskjaer making three changes from last time out.
Check out the confirmed MUFC XI vs Atalanta in full here:
David de Gea starts this one in between the sticks, with the superstar Spaniard in the form of his life.
The five at the back feels like the correct play here. From right to left, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Eric Bailly, Harry Maguire, Raphael Varane and Luke Shaw make up the defence. If they’re half as good as they were at the weekend, we should be fine here.
There’s only one change made in the midfield as Paul Pogba comes back into the mix in place of Fred. Scott McTominay sits at the midfield’s base, with Bruno Fernandes once again starting.
Cristiano Ronaldo leads the line, partnering with Marcus Rashford. This dynamic duo will always score goals when they’re on their A-game. Let’s hope they can blow away the opposition tonight.
