MUFC play vs Burnley at Old Trafford this evening, with the Red Devils looking to return to winning ways on home soil. The team news is now in.
It’s fair to say Ralf Rangnick wouldn’t have been pleased with what he witnessed against Newcastle United earlier in the week. The German gaffer said as much in his post-match press conference.
We all know just how monumental of a task the former RB Leipzig boss has on his hands here. This is a squad full of mercenaries, cry babies and as Gary Neville so aptly put it, whinge bags.

Jadon Sancho starts again here, with the Englishman looking far more confident over the last few weeks. Mason Greenwood also plays in place of Marcus Rashford, which is absolutely the right decision.
Cristiano Ronaldo leads the line as per usual, with our Portuguese superstar expected to carry the burden of our attack again. He will be joined by El Matador, Edinson Cavani, for the first time this season.
Come on you Reds!
