As Manchester United gets ready for the upcoming fixture vs Crystal Palace, some good news could be on the way. Erik Ten Hag, the team’s coach, is quite optimistic that a few significant players who were not featured because of injury might soon be returning to the field.
Manchester United tied with Burnley recently in a 1-1 draw that was not expected at all. There is a lot of doubt regarding whether or not Ten Hag will continue to be the team’s boss, despite knowing that they face a vital FA Cup final clash against Manchester City.
Anthony Martial, Lisandro Martinez, as well as Luke Shaw, are three significant players who were sidelined for some time. However, they appear to be becoming better, and they may be starting team practices this week, signalling that they will play in games before the season is out.
Ten Hag exudes confidence. Before the Burnley match, he stated that the three individuals are improving and that we may see them play once again this season.
Another significant player, Marcus Rashford, could potentially make a comeback at Selhurst Park following suffering an injury during the thrilling FA Cup triumph against Coventry.

Due to a knee injury that caused him to leave the Burnley match early on, Scott McTominay has mentioned that his injury is not long-lasting and he is planning to return to the upcoming match.
Ten Hag will have to decide amongst Eriksen and Mount for a spot in the middle if McTominay fails to feature in the upcoming match. It might be necessary for Casemiro to handle defence once more.
Here’s a guess at what the Manchester United lineup (4-3-3) could look like:
Goalkeeper: Onana
Defenders: Wan-Bissaka, Casemiro, Maguire, Dalot
Midfielders: Mainoo, Eriksen, Fernandes
Forwards: Antony, Garnacho, Hojlund
Shaw, Martinez, Martial, Rashford, and McTominay are among those players who may not be certain to participate due to injury or other unpredictability. Injuries have ruled out others, notably Lindelof, Evans, Varane, Malacia, as well as Kambwala.
