Paul Pogba
The World Cup-winning Frenchman has been sensational since his return after a long injury layoff. He came off the bench against Tottenham and earned United the penalty from which they drew, was involved in some great play against Sheffield United and also played the key pass that led to Harry Maguire’s goal against Norwich in the FA Cup. Pogba created four chances off the bench against Norwich. His understanding with Bruno Fernandes and the forwards could be key to United’s fate this campaign.
Neal Maupay
He has been key to Brighton’s season so far and will once again be their main attacking pivot against United. Maupay created great problems for the Arsenal defence before scoring the winning goal in Brighton’s first game after a three-month lockdown. He has already scored nine times in the league and is the club’s highest goalscorer for this season. He has also struck the most number of shots on target for Brighton (85).
Anthony Martial
Another Frenchman and another key player for Manchester United. Martial recorded his first senior hat-trick against Sheffield United last week and will be buzzing with confidence when the Red Devils visit the South Coast. The hat-trick took his season league tally to 14 goals, joint club highest with Marcus Rashford. Martial will definitely be hungry for more and will also want to rub off claims of inconsistency with another match-winning performance at Brighton.
Bruno Fernandes
The Portuguese has been the best player for Manchester United since joining them in January. He has already scored four times and has as many assists in the Premier League. But Fernandes looked exhausted and had his worse match against Norwich where he failed to create a single chance. It remains to be seen whether Solskjaer will rest him or start him again after three successive games within a week. But if he does start, Fernandes will hope to link-up again with Pogba.
