Our confirmed MUFC XI for the Premier League home game vs Wolves is now in…
Manchester United Football Club finally play their first game of the season. The extra-long wait has only increased the anticipation among supporters. I, for one, am chomping at the bit to see this new-look team in action.
Erik ten Hag is still building up his playing squad, with good signings made already. Further work in the transfer market may well follow for the Old Trafford club, though it could be reliant on player sales.
Wolves will come to the Theatre of Dreams looking to cause a huge upset, with Gary O’Neill no doubt looking for that new manager bounce. Hopefully, our lads give it their all and secure the victory to start off the season.
Anyway, let’s get right into the all-important team news, with a couple of debuts handed out.
Check out our confirmed MUFC XI vs Wolves in full here:
Andre Onana starts in between the sticks, with the man from Cameroon looking to completely change the way United play from the back.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka is preferred to Diogo Dalot in the right-back position, with the Englishman looking good at the back end of last term. Luke Shaw was always going to get the nod at left-back. Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane is the now customary back two.
Casemiro’s brilliance was there for all to see in pre-season and he’s no doubt looking to continue that form here. New signing Mason Mount makes his first start, with Bruno Fernandes proudly wearing the armband and completing the midfield trio.
Marcus Rashford does lead the line in the absence of Rasmus Hojlund, with Antony on his right and Alejandro Garnacho down the left.
