Manchester United supporters have called on Erik ten Hag to name a strong starting line-up for the FA Cup fifth-round clash with West Ham on Wednesday night.
Ten Hag's side lifted their first trophy since 2017 on Sunday afternoon after defeating Newcastle 2-0 in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley. Casemiro and Marcus Rashford were both on target for the Reds, who managed the crunch match well and were worthy winners in the end.
United are the only side in England still competing on three fronts, with the quadruple still on the cards for the club. Ten Hag's men are still in the hunt for Premier League, Europa League and FA Cup glory.

While three long-term absentees are ruled out of the visit of West Ham, two more stars who featured at the weekend are also doubts for the clash. Both Luke Shaw and Fred are unlikely to play against the Hammers, but they could return at the weekend.
Given that a place in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup is on offer, United fans are keen for Ten Hag to go strong with his team selection - despite a clash with Liverpool on Sunday looming. Here's how MEN-reading United fans think the team should line up against West Ham:
Goalkeeper - David de Gea
Given that David de Gea played in the previous two rounds of the FA Cup - against Everton and Reading - it would not come as a surprise to see him start against the Hammers. With United hunting an unprecedented (yet still unlikely) quadruple, Reds fans are keen for their first-choice goalkeeper to continue - especially after his performance on Sunday.
Defenders - Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Victor Lindelof, Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia
Shaw is unlikely to play any part on Wednesday night, and Tyrell Malacia will likely play in his place if the England defender is absent. On the other flank, supporters believe that Aaron Wan-Bissaka - who replaced Diogo Dalot at half-time of the Carabao Cup triumph - deserves to start for Ten Hag's side.
At the heart of defence, Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof have been backed to play. It is important that United manage Raphael Varane's minutes, especially given the hectic fixture schedule.
Midfielders - Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes, Marcel Sabitzer
United are still without Christian Eriksen and Donny van de Beek, and it appears that Fred will play no part against David Moyes' side in midweek. Therefore, Reds fans are keen for Marcel Sabitzer to partner Casemiro at the base of midfield. The latter scored the opening goal in the win on Sunday.
Fernandes, meanwhile, has registered seven goals and 10 assists this season and he is expected to make his 39th appearance of the season on Wednesday night. The Portuguese ace would play every single minute in every single match if it was up to him.
Forwards - Antony, Wout Weghorst, Alejandro Garnacho
If one player deserves a rest, it is Rashford - and United fans want to see the England ace come out of the starting line-up ahead of the game against Liverpool at the weekend. In his absence, talented youngster Alejandro Garnacho has been tipped to come in and start. The young Argentine will be desperate to get involved.
With Anthony Martial still sidelined with an injury, Wout Weghorst should start against West Ham. The Dutchman, despite his disappointing goal return, has impressed in recent weeks, but he will be keen to grab his second goal for the club. Meanwhile, Antony, who started on Sunday, has been backed to complete the attack.
