Manchester United will begin this campaign by taking on Southampton at St. Mary’s Stadium. The Saints, who are looking to redeem themselves after an inconsistent last season, have always been a tough opponent at home. Southampton are known for their intensity and high pressing, which can cause problems for United if they do not control the game from the start. For the Red Devils, this game will be crucial to pick up points on the road and continue their fight for the top spots in the Premier League.
BY: ONANA – Onana is a key player in Ten Hag’s system, standing out for his skill with his feet and his speed in getting out of his area. Despite criticism from last season, he is expected to return to his best form and be a defensive mainstay.
LD: MAZRAOUI- Mazraoui brings security and dynamics to the right-back position. With his defensive and offensive abilities, he fits perfectly into Ten Hag’s system, improving the way he comes out from the back.
DFC: LISANDRO MARTINEZ – The Argentine centre-back will lead his team as he has done on so many occasions before the injury that kept him off the pitch for so long.
DFC: DE LIGT – One of the signings of the season, De Ligt, will start from the start for this Premier League match against Southampton.
LI: DALOT- Dalot will move to left back, looking to establish himself in the team. His versatility and ability on both wings allow him to adapt quickly, especially in the absence of Luke Shaw.
MC: CASEMIRO – The Brazilian is one of the most criticised players in the Premier League this season. Even so, a player like Casemiro has to start.
MC: MAINOO – The very young English midfielder, just 18 years old, has been one of the breakthrough players of the year during the last season, and if he continues to maintain this great level that he shows, and injuries respect him, we could possibly be talking about one of the stars of the next 10 years.
ED: AMAD DIALLO- The young winger is explosive and skilled in one-on-one situations. His creativity and speed could be key on the right flank, offering depth and constant danger to United’s attack.
MCO: BRUNO FERNANDES – Another season for the good Bruno Fernandes at Manchester United. One of those who has always kept the team going through the worst moments of recent seasons, and his quality is indisputable. Let’s hope that this year, with the improvement of the team, he feels more supported and takes the club to another level.
EI: RASHFORD – The talented English winger is clearly a player with streaks, and just as two seasons ago he seemed unable to miss a goal, last season it was more difficult for him. Therefore, and in favour of football, we hope that this season he recovers his confidence and his level to once again demonstrate the great player that he is.
DC: ZIRKZEE- With Mount and Hojlund absent, the striker position will be filled by young Dutchman Zirkzee.
This is what the formation would look like (1-4-2-3-1)
Goalie: Onana
Defenses: Mazraoui, Lisandro Martínez, De Ligt, Dalot
Midfielders: Mainoo, Casemiro
Attacking midfielders: Diallo, Bruno Fernandes, Rashford
Front: Zirkzee
