Manchester United donned their new tops in Tuesday’s training session ahead of Thursday’s crunch match with Chelsea.
The Reds only need a draw to secure Champions League qualification for next season after their 1-0 win against Bournemouth at the weekend. United drew 1-1 with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in October’s reverse fixture.
Casemiro scored a stoppage-time header to level the match at the death in a rare result away from home against a ‘big six’ club. He was seen going through the motions with ease at Carrington on Tuesday, while a teammate was also seemingly in a good mood.

Martial all smiles
Anthony Martial was seen in high spirits during the training session on Tuesday after looking unhappy at being taken off in Saturday’s win at Bournemouth.
The attacker was hooked in the second half despite putting in an impressive individual showing at the Vitality Stadium. He initially marched down the tunnel after being substituted with a frustrated expression before returning to the bench later on.
But he showed a positive outlook in training at Carrington on Tuesday - with fans hoping he can put the incident behind him and kick on for the season run-in
Rashford does ball work
Marcus Rashford has been seen in training since picking up the leg injury that has kept him out of the last two matches, but this time he was spotted doing ball work. The England star has not played since the 1-0 defeat to West Ham earlier this month.
United have claimed wins over Wolves and Bournemouth in his absence but have largely looked devoid of ideas without him in the front three. Rashford could potentially make a return against Chelsea on Thursday.
De Gea looking at ease
David de Gea was seen laughing with Bruno Fernandes at one point in the session. The goalkeeper has come under heavy criticism amid several error leading to goals this season, with questions over his long-term role under Erik ten Hag.
The Spaniard is expected to sign a renewal in the coming weeks albeit on reduced terms. There didn’t seem any signs of unsettlement as he went through his paces after claiming the Premier League Golden Glove award with his clean sheet on Saturday.
With United needing just one more point to secure a place in the Premier League's top four and Champions League football for next season, it appeared the pressure isn't getting to any of the players ahead of the crucial game against Chelsea.
