CERTAIN PERSONNEL CHANGES

This intensifies the game for United’s season against Daniel Farke’s side (Norwich manager) at home.
Following the defeat in midweek, the Red Devils are expected to make changes to their starting eleven as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer attempts to reshuffle his team ahead of Norwich city fixture.
Players like Juan Mata and Harry Maguire have been ruled out of the fixture and certain changes to the team set-up beckon for United as they approach the match with the much-required importance.
MASSIVE RESPONSE FROM THE PLAYERS
Losing 1-3 at home in the Carabao Cup was not the required result Manchester United as a whole want for their high profile side as the citizen claimed an undue advantage in the first leg.
It damned the mood at home “Theatre of Dream” gloomy as uncertainty looms ahead of United’s season.
However, there is hope as Marcus Rashford scored to reduce the deficit against Pep Guardiola’s side in midweek.
