Beaten by Arsenal to Old Trafford (0-1) and held in check against Fulham (1-1) in the Premier League, then eliminated by an English D4 in EFL Cup, Wednesday against Grimsby Town (2-2, 12-11 at the Tab), Manchester United must absolutely react during the arrival of Burnley this Saturday afternoon (kick 5). Ruben Amorim, who arrived in the season during last season, would now be on the hot seat after the terrible elimination in the League Cup …
The Portuguese coach does not change his plans much to challenge the promoted Burnley, with the maintenance of a disappointing casemiro against the Gunners and the Cottages. He was left on the bench against Grimsby at the expense of Kobbie Mainoo and Manuel Ugarte and the latter two could largely be established this Saturday. The Brazilian veteran (33) is again aligned with Bruno Fernandes in a double pivot which has not yet given satisfaction.
Casemiro is clearly at the end of his career but he won a lot of credit at the end of last season by being essential during the route in the Europa League to the final (lost 1-0 against Tottenham). He is a decisive passer on the last two goals of the incredible qualification against OL at Old Trafford (5-4), April 17. Then the former Taulier of Real Madrid scored during the two confrontations with Bilbao in half.
Holder Casemiro, Sesko replacing
In the 3-4-2-1 of Amorim, only Diogo Dalot takes over from Patrick Dorgu as a left piston. The unconvincing offensive trio remains composed of Bryan Mbeumo, Mason Mount and Matheus Cunha. Benjamin Sesko does not know his first tenure in the England championship. The Slovenian striker recruited for 76.5 million euros was certainly transparent against the English D4. Leny Yoro is well aligned with the right of the defense of the Red Devils.
Among the Clarets, we find Kyle Walker and Maxime Estève in Defense, as well as Lesley Ugochukwu and Hannibal Mejbri in the midfield. Burnley remains on a first victory against Sunderland (2-0).
The eleven of Man United: Bayindir – Yoro, De Ligt, Shaw – Amad, Casemiro, Fernandes, Dalot – Mbeumo, Mount – Cunha.
