This start of the year is marked by a waltz of coaches on the benches Premier League. Like Chelsea, Manchester United chose to continue its season with another technician on its bench. Exit Ruben Amorim… The Portuguese technician is temporarily replaced by Darren Fletcher for the coming weeks. Former emblematic midfielder of the club (342 matches played in the Mancunian jersey), the Scot intends to draw inspiration from his ex-teammate, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who had managed to stay long-term after an initial appointment as an interim manager.
The situation is urgent. Despite an honorable ranking, Manchester United, sixth, has not been invited to the title race for too long. An anomaly for the most successful club in English football, which remains a major institution and a strong brand in the landscape of European football. Fletcher’s first could launch a new dynamic since Burnley, penultimate, looks like a predicted victim in this context.
The expected compositions
Burnley : Dubravka; Walker, Ekdal, Esteve, Pires; Ugochukwu, Florentino, Laurent; Edwards, Broja, Anthony.
Manchester United : Lammens; Dalot, Heaven, Martinez, Shaw; Casemiro, Ugarte; Dorgu, Fernandes, Cunha; Sesko.
