Erik ten Hag insists he is taking things one game at a time, but he might need to look ahead to the weekend when he considers his lineup against Crystal Palace tonight.
United head into the match at Selhurst Park buoyed by a derby win over Man City and know another positive result is crucial ahead of their trip to face Arsenal this weekend. The temptation for United to stick with the same lineup that performed so well last time out is strong, but doing so is not always the best option.
In particular, Ten Hag has two midfield dilemmas he needs to solve if he is to give his side the best chance of securing victories in both of their away matches this week.
