Man United Bench Casemiro After Liverpool Nightmare, Christian Eriksen Surprises in Starting XI

Manchester United fans are questioning a midfield combination by Erik ten Hag as he has left Casemiro on the bench for tonight's Premier League clash against Southampton

The five-time UEFA Champions League winner endured a nightmare showing in United's 3-0 defeat to Liverpool at Old Trafford on Sunday, at fault for both first-half goals. In his place, youngster Toby Collyer has been handed his Premier League debut, with new signing Manuel Ugarte also available for selection at St Mary’s.

Danish midfielder Christian Eriksen, who had limited minutes in United's first two league matches and made a brief appearance late in the Liverpool game, is now back in the starting lineup.

United are looking to bounce back after a narrow 2-1 away defeat to Brighton, although they still sit three points ahead of Southampton, who have lost all three of their Premier League matches this season.

Man United starting XI vs. Southampton (4-2-3-1, right to left): Onana (GK) — Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot — Eriksen, Mainoo — Amad, Fernandes, Rashford — Zirkzee.
