Marcus Rashford, Luke Shaw and Harry Maguire will all thrive in the second half of the season, according to former Manchester United defender Mikael Silvestre.
United enjoyed a successful return to action last week after well over a month without playing due to the World Cup break as they eased past a spirited Burnley to advance to the Carabao Cup quarter-finals. Now Erik ten Hag's side are gearing themselves up for their first Premier League encounter since Alejandro Garnacho's last-gasp winner against Fulham on November 13.
United will welcome Nottingham Forest to Old Trafford on Wednesday for their first meeting since they smashed them 8-1 back in 1999. Rashford and Shaw will likely start and captain Maguire could too if he recovers from illness. Silvestre thinks they will improve following the resumption.
