'Criminal' - Manchester United fans blast Erik ten Hag selection decision vs Chelsea

Erik ten Hag has named his starting line-up for Manchester United's Premier League showdown with Chelsea at Old Trafford this evening.

United, who are unbeaten in all of their last 10 league meetings with the Londoners, will be looking to register a third successive win and secure a top-four finish with a game to spare. The Reds require just a point from their last two matches to wrap up Champions League qualification following Saturday's 1-0 win over Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.

It means that Ten Hag will be determined to see his side get over the line this evening and wrap up their main objective ahead of Sunday's season finale against Fulham. The Dutchman, surprisingly, has refused to to tinker with the side that defeated the Cherries, meaning he has named the same XI for the third game running.

However, in a welcome boost for the Reds, Marcus Rashford has been included in the matchday squad for the first time since the defeat at West Ham United. He has been named on the bench and will be keen to make his return to action at some point this evening.

Meanwhile, the likes of Diogo Dalot, Scott McTominay and Alejandro Garnacho have also been named among the substitutes. However, Lisandro Martinez and Marcel Sabitzer are still sidelined with season-ending injuries.

Having made the decision to name the same side that was victorious against Bournemouth, Ten Hag will be hoping to see his side secure the point they're in need of to get themselves over the line. It is the inclusion of Jadon Sancho in the starting line-up that has attracted the most attention from United's supporters in the immediate aftermath of the team news being confirmed.
