United are set to travel south to play Saints, who have been without any points after three games. Joshua Zirkzee is anticipated to start, alongside Amad, in the attacking set-up.
The Manchester team struggled offensively in their previous match, prompting Ten Hag to consider adjustments to their forward options. Following a subpar performance against Liverpool, Casemiro is expected to be benched.
With Leny Yoro sidelined due to injury, Matthijs de Ligt and Lisandro Martinez are likely to solidify their position as the club’s main central defensive pairing. Despite conceding three goals to Liverpool, they will continue to be given the opportunity to develop as a duo.
The back four is likely to be completed by Diogo Dalot and Noussair Mazraoui in front of goalkeeper Andre Onana. Ten Hag has reaffirmed his focus, stating that he does not allow the ongoing rumors about his future to affect him.
He emphasized that the team is still in a transition phase and is integrating many young players. Looking ahead, he stressed the importance of winning trophies, performing well in the league, and evaluating their position in May next year.
Referring to his previous success at St Mary’s, Ten Hag also expressed a commitment to achieving positive outcomes. Additionally, the club offers special deals, promotions, and advertisements to its community members, with an open invitation to leave if they are dissatisfied.
