Manchester United had a training session to prepare for their trip to Goodison Park this weekend.
Erik ten Hag almost doesn’t have the best squad on hand when a series of players have been injured since the beginning of the season.
However, two pushes came to Man Utd at the same time in this training session. Specifically, Luke Shaw has returned and practiced with his teammates.
The left-back has been sidelined since the end of August due to a muscle ιnjury, but he can return to play after a series of international matches this November.
Similar is the case of Lisandro Martinez. The Man Utd homepage confirmed that the Argentine midfielder appeared on the training field for the first time since losing 3-4 to Bayern Munich in the Champions League group stage in September.
The return of the above duo is very important, in the context of Man Utd’s defense lacking stability.
Raphael Varane is out of form, Jonny Evans is also injured, and Victor Lindelof is good and bad. Currently, only Harry Maguire is playing according to his ability.
Erik ten Hag has come under a series of strong criticisms after Manchester United’s poor start to the 2023/24 season.
However, the Red Devils are only 5 points behind the 4th ranked team, Tottenham Hotspur, despite the team experiencing the worst start in the Premier League era.
However, Man Utd’s аttаck still plays below strength. Only Marcus Rashford has scored only 1 goal in the Premier League since the beginning of the season.
Alejandro Garna said Antony needs to regain his form to help Man Utd towards success this season.
