Another home-grown talent who could be set for a bigger role next season is 18-year-old Angel Gomes, who has often been described as their next big star and he will almost certainly feature at some point.

Attack

Alexis Sanchez and Romelu Lukaku may both miss out while, with recent rumours suggesting that Anthony Martial will be moved on, it’s unlikely the Frenchman will play much of a part.Marcus Rashford and Jesse Lingard might play and could be joined by highly-rated youngster Tahith Chong.Tahith Chong may get his chance at United9

Chong has made several appearances this season and has impressed with fans wanting to see him play a bigger part, while Mason Greenwood, despite recent injury issues is being groomed for a bigger role by Solskjaer, so it wouldn’t be a surprise if he started.Either way, the Norwegian’s team selection on Sunday should make for interesting reading, whether it’s thanks to the starlets or the outgoing first-teamers.
