One change as Manchester United fans choose starting XI they want to see vs Bournemouth

Manchester United's supporters want to see Alejandro Garnacho brought into the starting XI against Bournemouth.

Having missed last weekend's win over Wolves with a leg injury but returned to training earlier this week, top scorer Marcus Rashford is a doubt for a second successive game due to illness. The forward missed Friday's training session at Carrington and manager Erik ten Hag may well have a decision to make on the left wing.

And fans are calling for Garnacho - who sealed last weekend's victory with his injury-time strike - to get the nod over Jadon Sancho. Other than that, the United faithful are happy for Ten Hag to stick by those who got the job done last time out at Old Trafford.

That would see David de Gea keep his place between the sticks, behind a back four of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Raphael Varane, Victor Lindelof and Luke Shaw. In the middle of the park stay Casemiro, Christian Eriksen and Bruno Fernandes, with Antony off the right and Anthony Martial leading the line.

It's by no means an easy final away day for United, who make the long trip down south to take on a Bournemouth side who've secured safety. The Cherries are looking to bounce back from successive defeats by Chelsea and Crystal Palace, but have shown their threat in the second half of the season - with wins over Tottenham, Liverpool, Leeds, Southampton, Leicester, Fulham and Wolves.

United starting XI fans want to see vs Bournemouth: De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Lindelof, Shaw; Casemiro, Eriksen, Fernandes; Antony, Martial, Garnacho
