Man Utd will return to the capital tonight when they take on Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in an attempt to catch up to the top four following this week’s results.
After overcoming an injury that kept him out against Brentford on Saturday night, Raphael Varane is back in the Manchester United lineup to take on Chelsea.
The center back and Jonny Evans were among the group of travelers who boarded the train on Thursday morning from Stockport to travel to the capital. With Victor Lindelof and Lisandro Martinez both sidelined for a month due to muscular injuries, Erik ten Hag is left with a choice of three center backs.
Along with Mason Mount, who scored his first goal for United in the 1-1 draw at Brentford on Saturday, the squad is getting ready for Amad’s first trip back to Stamford Bridge. Amad was sent off against Brentford after scoring against Liverpool in the FA Cup, and he is serving a one-game suspension.
If United wins tonight, they will have a chance to catch up to Aston Villa and Tottenham in the competition for Champions League football. Wednesday, Villa suffered a loss at Manchester City, and on Tuesday night, Spurs and West Ham drew.
“I have high standards and I would be disappointed if we didn’t qualify,” Ten Hag replied.
We are not in a good position, so I know it will be extremely difficult. However, our mutual standard amongst ourselves is to win every game. We will persevere and hold those standards in high regard. That will be how we play every game. We’re not going to give up until we win. I am aware that our situation is not ideal. We need to make up for lost time.”
Mount is eager to build on his summertime cameo against his former club at the Gtech Community Stadium, and Ten Hag has disclosed how hard Chelsea fought to hold onto their academy graduate.
