After so much of drama last week in Manchester United, we finally have some good news. Both the players who were considered not happy in the locker room of Manchester United are in the starting lineup against Tottenham Hotspurs; Marcus Rashford and Cristiano Ronaldo.
It was earlier said that, both the players are not very pleased at Old Trafford and wants to leave the Red Devils. In fact, Ralf Rangnick confirmed that if Rashford wants to leave, he can in next summer. But now, the starting XI against Tottenham Hotspurs looks like a message for the fans that still United players are here and they’ll give their best for their goals this season.
However, surprisingly, Bruno Fernandes was missing from the squad due to illness.

On the other hand, Spurs are 7th with 45 points and if they win, they’ll go equal with Arsenal, but again Arsenal will have 2 extra games in hand.
