Breaking news: Ralf Ragnick reveals his starting line up against wolves as Rashford returns with two other stars as a boost to the squad that will definitely thrash wolves ...

 Manchester United host eighth-placed Wolves

 at Old Trafford in the Premier League tomorrow

 evening knowing that three points will bring

 them just one away from the top four 

places with a game in hand.



With no new reported injury concerns 


and Victor lindelof potentially available


 again after a positive Covid-19 test, interim


 manager Ralf Rangnick has a wealth


 of options from which to choose.




Bruno Fernandes is back from suspension


 and will be pushing for a place, but the 


team’s relatively controlled more 


performance last time out may encourage 


Rangnick to stick with a similar selection.




If Lindelof is available and fit enough,


 he may also be pushing for a recall after


 the wayward form of Harry maguire 


, the absence of Eric Baily for AFCON 


and Raphael varane’s errors against 


Newcastle.





We think though that Maguire and Varane 


will start, with David de Gea in goal.



The full-back situation is interesting.


 Diogo Dalot and Alex telles had been


 doing well in those roles but were rotated


 for former incumbents Aaron wan 


Bissaka  and Luke Shaw against Burnley


 on Thursday.




Shaw had an excellent game and could


 be retained in the side with the unfortunate


 Telles consigned once again to the bench.



Wan-Bissaka was perhaps not as impressive


 and it seems likely that Dalot will be 


recalled at right back.



Scott mctominay was man of the match 


against burnley and will keep his place 


if fit enough. Fred could be recalled in 


place of Namenja matic , who at 33 will 


perhaps struggle to play twice in four days.




At 34, Edison cavani is another star who


 may struggle to play another 90 minues, 


so Marcus rashford  could be recalled 


in his place alongside Cristiano Ronaldo,


 who of course is the oldest of all but 


seems to defy all normal fitness logic.



Assuming Rangnick sticks to his preferred


 4-2-2-2 formation, this leaves the choice


 of the twin number 10’s. This is likely 


to be between Fernandes, Mason Greenwood


 and Jadon sancho. Donny van de beek ,


 Anthony martial , Jese lingard and Juan


 mata are other options, but so far the 


manager does not seem to have featured 


them too heavily.



We have gone for Fernandes and Sancho 


in our predicted XI, but Greenwood is 


arguably the most worthy on current form.




With all that in mind, here is our predicted


 team for tomorrow’s 5.30pm kick off:
