Manchester United vs. Fulham; Key players to watch at Old Trafford

Manchester United and Fulham would unleash their best players as they trade tackles on the pitch at the weekend.

Erik ten Hag and Marco Silva will be desperate to allow their best players square up on the field of play but it remains to be seen how it’s going to happen after 90 minutes of football.

Here, Allnews.ng evaluates the key players to watch as action looms this weekend between Fulham and home side Manchester United.

Bruno Fernandes

The Portuguese talent would be a creative spark in the middle of the park as they gear up for the visit of London side Fulham at Old Trafford.

He would be saddled with the responsibility to make passes for his teammate in transition. His ability to score (especially from range) makes him a threat to his counterpart.

He would carry one of the major hopes of his side into this match as his performance would help to take the pressure of the shoulder of his (Dutch) manager Erik ten Hag.

Willian Borges

The Brazilian playmaker Willian would lead his side charge which his flaw and touch of class in the midfield.

He would offer a major threat to the Manchester United side while his experience would be an added advantage in this match.

Willian is a player of the big stage and he’s got the quality to carry his team forward in the final third.

His presence alone would command respect from the home team. Whereas his free-kick technique could come in to play a tone time later in the course of this match.

Marcus Rashford

The English striker is one of the best players in the Manchester United rank owing to his top quality performance for the Red Devils.

He’s a goal threat for Erik ten Hag’s men in this match. Even as we know he’s one of the players who cannot move than a goal for himself in this match.

So we expect him to flourish in the final third for his side much as the supply would be coming from the quality pair of Bruno Fernandes and Scott Mc Tominay in the Manchester United’s engine room as the case may be.
