Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has been told he risks damaging team morale if he decides to take Hannibal Mejbri out of the starting XI after his impressive display in the victory over Burnley.

Hannibal was named in the Reds' XI ahead of Christian Eriksen after he came off the bench the previous weekend to score against Brighton and Hove Albion at Old Trafford.

The Tunisian midfielder, who spent last season on loan at Birmingham City, did not look out of place in the United team and worked well in transitions.

After the match, which was decided by a superb Bruno Fernandes volley in first-half stoppage time, Sky Sports pundit Tim Sherwood told Premier League Productions how impressed he was with the 20-year-old. "A real positive from the performance when I look at the individual performances for Man United?
