Manchester United’s coach Erik Ten Hag made several important changes in the game facing the Red Devils against Newport County in the Rodney Parade Stadium in the fourth round of the FA Cup, as Marcus Rashford was finally banned from the squad due to a personal incident with the club, while important pieces for the team such as Shaw or Casemiro returned to Ten Hag’s lineup.

Rashford punished, the way he cheated on Manchester United was uncovered

The Dutchman, who gave minutes on the goal to Altay Bayindir while Onana completes his near return from the AFCON, went back to the defense he set at the start of the season, with Dalot and Shaw leading the full backs and Varane and Martinez shielding the center of the line.

Casemiro was placed as the leader of the midfield following his recovery from a serious injury that kept him on the sidelines since last year, and Mainoo was chosen as his partner to control the ball in that area. Antony and Garnacho were placed on the wings in the absence of Marcus Rashford, banned due to a personal punishment set by Ten Hag after the player cheated on the club in the last few hours, while Bruno and Hojlund led the attack of the team from the center of the forward line.
