Manchester United will be hoping to continue their fantastic home form when the team host Southampton on Sunday. As the team will be aiming for a sixth successive home win.
Ashley Young is the only player missing from training this week as Luke Shaw, Antonio Valencia, Marouane Fellaini, Marcos Rojo, Daley Blind and Rafael have all trained this week and might start or make the bench.
Van Gaal will be looking for stability in defence and will almost start with a five man defence. For this match the wing backs look highly unpredictable, but for stability, I’ll go for Luke Shaw on the left back and Valencia on the right back. Rafael is back in training, but it may not be too good to rush him back into action less than a week after his operation. Evans, Smalling and Jones complete my backline.
Blind, Fellaini and Herrera are back. Herrera would be pushing for a start after his fantastic goal in the F. A cup victory, but I expect Carrick to get the nod ahead of the trio, with Herrera most likely making another substitute appearance. Rooney would most likely continue in the advance midfield role, as I expect Angel Di Maria to step in for Juan Mata, who’s been great for United recently, but Di Maria’s pace and speed may give him the edge.
Robin Van Persie and Falcao for me would lead the lines for United.
