According to reports from the fan portal UtdDistrict Former Bayern star Matthijs de Ligt could displace recently struggling central defender Harry Maguire from the starting line-up.

De Ligt is set to form a new central defender duo with Lisandro Martinez, also a former protégé of ten Hag at Ajax Amsterdam.

Overall, ten Hag relies heavily on players he has already trained in his home country. In addition to De Ligt and Martinez, the team also includes the second Bayern departure, Noussair Mazraoui, André Onana and the Brazilian attacker Antony.

While Liverpool made a successful start to the post-Jürgen Klopp era and gave neither promoted team Ipswich nor Brentford a chance, leaving the pitch as comfortable 2-0 winners in each case, United is already in a mini-crisis again after the defeat against Brighton & Hove Albion, led by German coaching shooting star Fabian Hürzeler.

If they fail to win at home against Liverpool at Old Trafford, the club is in danger of falling behind the top four early in the season and thus undermining their own ambitions. The duel between the two English heavyweights is also guaranteed to be exciting.
