'Finally!' - Manchester United fans love what Erik ten Hag has done vs Brentford

Erik ten Hag has named his starting line-up for Manchester United's Premier League tussle with Brentford at Old Trafford this evening, making just one change.

United, who were hammered 4-0 by the Bees back in August, will be looking to get back to winning ways following Sunday's 2-0 defeat to fellow top-four hopefuls Newcastle United at St James' Park. That marked a third league outing without a victory and without a goal for the Reds, who head into this evening's match fifth in the table.

It means that Ten Hag will be determined to see a much-needed response from his side, as they aim to put their stuttering league form behind them and get back on track. The Dutchman, surprisingly, has decided against ringing the changes from the side that was beaten by Newcastle just over 72 hours ago.

Jadon Sancho has come into the side to replace Wout Weghorst, whose run of 19 consecutive starts finally ends. It means Marcus Rashford is expected to start through the middle and operate as a striker.

Meanwhile, the likes of Harry Maguire, Facundo Pellistri and Anthony Martial have been named among the substitutes. However, Christian Eriksen, despite returning to training yesterday, remains unavailable, as does Casemiro, who is once again absent through suspension.

Having made the decision to make just one change to the side that was beaten at St James' Park, Ten Hag will be hoping his approach has the desired impact, as the Reds look to climb back into the coveted top-four and inflict revenge on the Bees in the process. It is the axing of Weghorst from the starting line-up that has attracted the most attention from United's supporters in the immediate aftermath of the team news being confirmed.
