If Manchester United are to continue their challenge for major trophies under Erik ten Hag then it is crucial they avoid becoming predictable via an over-reliance on one or two players.
Ten Hag ended United's six-year trophy drought at the first time of asking last month, a 2-0 win against Newcastle at Wembley handing them the Carabao Cup. Casemiro opened the scoring that day when powering home Luke Shaw's irresistible free-kick before Marcus Rashford fired a second in off Sven Botman's outstretched leg.
It felt fitting that United's season highlight to this point came predominantly down their left and from two of their outstanding performers in Shaw and Rashford. Both have endured their fair share of struggles in red over the years but the arrival of Ten Hag has seen them rejuvenated - an ever-present partnership dominating the left flank.
