Luke Shaw won’t be starting in tomorrow’s encounter between Manchester United and Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford under Erik ten Hag.

Shaw had a critical injury late last night, which may prevent him from playing for a while.

Shaw’s logical replacement, Tyrell Malacia, is still out with an impact injury that prevented him from participating in the preseason.

Mason Mount is also sidelined for four to six weeks due to a thigh injury he suffered against the Spurs.

Additionally hurt are Kobbie Mainoo, Tom Heaton, and Amad. Harry Maguire is divided 50/50 for the game.

Mount’s position might be filled by Christian Eriksen, Scott McTominay, or Donny van de Beek.

He was the most likely backup because Eriksen and Casemiro were the top options in the previous campaign.

After his attackers failed to score or produce an assist in either of their first two games of the season, it appears likely that the manager will make changes up front.

Antony hasn’t played much better on the right wing and could be replaced by Jadon Sancho or Facu Pellistri.

Anthony Martial might be shifted back to center forward as his lengthy injury recovery progresses, despite the fact that he only had little action against the Spurs.

He did take part in the Wednesday night game against Burnley that was played in secret, which may have increased his level of fitness enough for him to get the start.

Rasmus Hojlund, a recent addition, may be fit enough to be named to the starting lineup tomorrow and even make his debut, according to certain sources.

However, according to some media outlets, the Dane’s inclusion in the team may be delayed until after the international break.

Overall, we think that Rashford, Martial, and Sancho are the most likely front three.

Shaw can be replaced by either Diogo Dalot at left back or the inexperienced but talented Alvaro Fernandez.

Victor Lindelof might be inserted at center back, and Lisandro Martinez could be moved to the flank.

With Andre Onana in goal, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Raphael Varane at RB and RCB, and captain Bruno Fernandes in the number 8/10 spot, this is our anticipated starting XI for tomorrow’s game:
