Manchester United might have already completed their most important signing this summer

When Manchester United were in desperate need of a spark underneath the Wembley arch on Saturday afternoon, Erik ten Hag turned his bench and tasked Alejandro Garnacho with providing it.

United were trailing 2-1 with just under half an hour left on the clock and their hopes of derailing Manchester City's treble hopes were fading.

Bruno Fernandes, despite scoring the penalty to bring the Reds level in the first half, Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho had failed to lay so much as a glove on City's strong and dependable defence, meaning a tweak of some sort was needed.

Injuries to Anthony Martial and Antony in the build-up to the FA Cup final meant Ten Hag had to reshuffle his forward line, tasking Fernandes with starting on the right and Rashford through the middle.
