It was expected that Roy Hodgson&#8217;s side may give them a scare in the Carabao Cup, but the changes made by United reaped the desired rewards, with youngsters Alejandro Garnacho, Hannibal Mejbri and Facundo Pellistri catching the eye. Mejbri has been impressive recently and was praised by Ten Hag for his &#8220;<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2023\/09\/23\/erik-ten-hag-hails-perfect-hannibal-mejbri-after-rare-start-for-manchester-united-19547900\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">perfect<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8221; performance against Burnley recently.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Read More:<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/09\/29\/manchester-united-crystal-palace-predictions-best-odds\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Amrabat the Key to a United Victory \u2013 Manchester United vs. Crystal Palace Predictions and Best Odds<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Harry Maguire returned at the back to put in a solid performance with the creativity provided in midfield by Mason Mount and Casemiro. Sofyan Amrabat had a full debut to remember, running the game at times from the left-back hybrid role while Anthony Martial up front got himself on the scoresheet in the second half. Diogo Dalot and Raphael Varane made up the right side of the Man United defence. Andre Onana continued his run of starting every game in goal since his arrival.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Watch<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">: What Manchester United NEED to Learn from Brighton&#8217;s Success<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"What Manchester United NEED to Learn from Brighton&#039;s Success\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bP3YtY9bnpg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Recent Form and Tactics: Ten Hag Still Searching for the Perfect Formula<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Amrabat was the match-winner for Man Utd during the midweek win over Crystal Palace despite not getting on the scoresheet. The 27-year-old brought some much-needed control to the middle of the pitch, although it may be questionable to keep him as a left-back moving forward. Injuries to the likes of Michael Olise and Odsonne Edouard are also restricting the freedom which Palace can threaten in forward areas. This was evident in the cup meeting between the sides.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Read More:<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/09\/29\/manchester-united-chelsea-monitoring-lorran\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u2018Understand\u2019: Manchester United and Chelsea Could Fight It Out for \u2018Brazilian Sensation\u2019<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Mount and Casemiro provided a creative spark at times and looked impressive. Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford will return here, meaning the threat posed by some of the younger players who started in their place will be missing this weekend. There is a decision to be made here on who to give a start to between Mejbri, Garnacho or Pellistri as they all offer different qualities and deserve a place on the teamsheet after their recent performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Injuries to Consider<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/theathletic.com\/4908363\/2023\/09\/29\/manchester-united-sergio-reguilon-injury\/?source=emp_shared_article\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Sergio Reguilon<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0is the latest to join the ever-growing treatment room, while\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lauriewhitwell\/status\/1707724077165670430\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Lisandro Martinez<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0is set to be out for a significant amount of time due to a foot injury.
