In addition to up front, United have four wingers jostling for two positions. Amad and Marcus Rashford started against Twente on Wednesday but on Saturday, at Crystal Palace, it was Alejandro Garnacho who got the nod in place of the latter. Antony started – and scored a penalty – in our 7-0 Carabao Cup success over Barnsley last Tuesday too.
It’s worth noting that this luxury was something Ten Hag did not have last term, with injuries causing issues.
In defensive areas, there is also room for rotation. Harry Maguire replaced Matthijs de Ligt in the XI on Wednesday, but the summer arrival from Bayern Munich had started the two Premier League fixtures prior to this Europa League match.
