Ten Hag's main man
Ed Woodward's final signing at Manchester United could become Erik ten Hag's main man.
Donny van de Beek will certainly be hoping that his former boss at Ajax can spark a revival to his Old Trafford career after spending the second half of this season on loan at Everton. and he could even be joined at Old Trafford by a very familiar face following reports Ten Hag wants to bring Van de Beek's former midfield partner Frenkie de Jong to Old Trafford.
And that could help reshape United's midfield in a way that could really suit Van de Beek.
Amad hits new low
Manchester United youngster Amad has hit a tough patch during his loan spell at Rangers.
The winger, who was dubbed a 'top player' by former United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer when he arrived at the club, was expected to gain more experience in Scotland to aid his development before returning to the club ready to challenge for a place in the first-team. But after a strong start Amad is now barely featuring for the side.
He was handed a rare start against Motherwell – but after teammate Connor Goldson was red-carded in the 29th minute he was the player to be sacrificed as his time in Scotland hit a new low.
