Our confirmed MUFC XI for the Premier League home game vs Bournemouth is now in.
Manchester United will be looking to continue what has been a decent run of form in the Premier League recently, by emerging victorious in a home game against a Bournemouth side who’ll be looking to cause an upset.
The Red Devils need the win here to keep piling the pressure on the sides above them in the table. After what was a positive midweek of results, another three points here could really drag the Old Trafford club back into the mix for a spot in the top four.
Erik ten Hag’s side have been playing games galore of late, so it’s no surprise to see the gaffer make a couple of changes here. Anyway, without further ado, let’s give you the full run down…

— Manchester United (@ManUtd) December 9, 2023
Andre Onana keeps his place in between the sticks after a calm and composed midweek display. The man from Cameroon looked good with the ball at feet, and in the shot-stopping department.
Diogo Dalot plays at right-back after a steady display on Wednesday against Chelsea, with the man from Portugal looking to back that up with another positive display. Sergio Reguilon was a bright spark in the second half of the same game. He comes into the line-up. Luke Shaw is moved back into the centre-back slot, alongside the in-form Harry Maguire.
Sofyan Amrabat deservedly keeps his place in the team after his best outing in a red shirt, starting alongside Scott McTominay and Bruno Fernandes. This midfield three has plenty of energy.
The big surprise for me was Anthony Martial getting the nod ahead of Rasmus Hojlund. I understand the need to rotate, but we look infinitely worse with the Frenchman in the side. To his right is Antony, with Alejandro Garnacho over on the left.
Come on you Reds!
