Manchester United take on Atletico Madrid today and it will be the first chance fans get to see Christian Eriksen play for the club. The Dane is a versatile player, but early signs suggest that Erik ten Hag has one specific role in mind for him which ...
And with Eriksen, Fernandes and Sancho all class in the pass, working a switch of play will surely be a common sight and one likely to light up the eyes of Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial. With Bruno Fernandes a player who often goes looking for the ball, it is easy to imagine the sort of overloads United will be able to create in order to pull Atletico’s out defence to right. Sancho is a particularly clever player in combination moves, and he is bound to enjoy a good understanding with the Denmark international.

Man United play Atletico Madrid today and we'll bring you live updates from the match in Oslo in our live blog.
It means Ronaldo will play for United for the first time since the 4-0 away defeat to Brighton on May 7. The sun is shining and the United fans are out in full force. That game is a chance for players who haven’t featured to top up minutes in pre-season, but it will now be Ronaldo’s return as well, although he has almost no chance of playing against Brighton a week tomorrow. United might have just experienced their worst ever Premier League season but support in Norway is as strong as ever, with the region’s supporters’ group hitting record membership this season. You would expect at least 10 of the starting XI against Brighton next week to be involved against Atletico today, with Luke Shaw the only one who could start that isn’t in Oslo. Shaw was just about edging Tyrell Malacia for left-back duties on tour but Malacia will get a good chance to impress here. That team feels like it’s pretty much Ten Hag’s strongest XI at the moment, with the exception of Sancho who is ill and misses out. Shaw isn’t in the 21-man squad at all. "This is the last test," Ten Hag told MUTV. "We want the players to get the minutes in the legs and, of course, we want to see a team performance. That’s probably the line up we expected, but that fans didn’t want to see. This is the purpose of these two games [Atletico and Rayo Vallecano]." The majority has to play 90 minutes because that is what you want when you come into the league. He is still expected to head out on loan before deadline day but his stock has certainly risen after an underwhelming time at Bournemouth.

We want to get the players to get the minutes in their legs. But we have another yellow, this time for Fred who tugs on the shirt of Angel Correa in the United half. A majority [of players] have to play 90 minutes because that is what you want when you go into the league. J.M. Gimenez misjudges a ball and Martial is free on goal, but he fires over the bar with a recovering defender on his back. 45th min.: Nice play by Man United. Good passing through the lines and it's Marcus Rashford who picks out Anthony Elanga in the box, but Elanga's shot is easily stopped. 67th min.: It's a challenge for Man United now. Although they tried, Manchester United struggled to generate enough clear-cut opportunities against a solid defensive side like Atletico, and when they did, the players didn't quite have the finishing touch. The most interesting conversation around the starting lineup against Brighton will probably center around Eriksen and whether he should be there from the opening whistle given the impact his substitute appearance had on the Atletico Madrid match. Ten Hag pushed his players for more minutes in this match and he made just four subs, with the first ones only coming on at the 70th minute mark. 75th min.: You can already notice the difference with Christian Eriksen on the field. Man United 'keeper David De Gea, who had a quiet afternoon, couldn't stop the Felix blast, screened by his teammate who was covering on the play. Marcus Rashford and Anthony Elanga had attempts on goal, Harry Maguire was dangerous on a couple of corner kicks, and Facundo Pellistri even had a late look at goal that was blocked.

Man United play Atletico Madrid on Saturday and Erik ten Hag has explained his team selection ahead of the match.
"So we have to build them, build their fitness levels. They [Atletico] are a really tough opponent, difficult style to play against and it's not easy, so it's a big challenge for is." I already said, we want to get many players with 90 minutes in their legs, but Martinez and Eriksen are not ready for that

Atletico's best chance of the first-half fell to Angel Correa but he lacked composure, blazing the ball over the bar. Saul almost gave Atletico the lead in the 70th minute but he fired wide, before Felix opened the scoring. But the cross is nipped off the midfielder's head by Gimenez and the ball rolls away for a corner. Oblak is the latest to be handed a yellow card after a collison with McTominay inside the box. For a friendly, the referee is giving out a lot of yellow cards! Correa tries to threat a pass through to Cunha at the end of the attack, but it is too heavy and De Gea comes out to read it well. The Danish international whips in a delightful cross towards the head of Elanga, but the latter is unable to get on the end of his delivery. The Swede takes a touch before firing a low effort towards goal but Oblak is there to make a save. The Brazilian is through on goal if he beats the United centre-back, but Cunha takes the shot early from the edge of the box and it is well blocked by Maguire. The ball makes its way to Pellistri in space, he has time to take a touch but hits it first time and his effort is tame and blocked by Saul. The right-back takes a touch before delivering a cross to the near post towards Fernandes, but Witsel does well to head the ball away. Elanga, who is a candidate for the Player of the Match award, has been taken off and replaced by Pellistri.
United contest a gritty friendly with Atletico just a week before the new Premier League season.
Antony Martial – Had two great chances to score in the opening throes and ran the hard yards. Elanga also drew a yellow from Lemar in first half. Fred – Prevented Kondogbia from influencing the midfield, and combined well on occasions with Rashford. The more defensive of the central midfield pair. His block of Matheus Cunha with a well-timed challenge wsas the pick of the bunch. 6/10 This could well be the XI that starts against Brighton next weekend.
Man United lost 1-0 to Atletico Madrid in their penultimate pre-season friendly before the new Premier League season and here are the player ratings.
Wasted a great chance to score in the final ten minutes and gave away a cheap free-kick. Made an instant impact with his delivery from deep and gave a taste of the quality he can bring to this side. A magician at work. He drew some fouls with his forward runs but didn't have much joy in the final third. Didn't see much of the ball but defended well and coped with the high intensity. Little chance with the goal.

"In the end it's about the result, and the score was not good. The right of attack is certainly among them. I think the performance from our team was really good. "I like competitiveness, but with respect. That's why you have to keep respect for each other. The 37-year-old forward was training with the rest of the United squad - largely the younger players - who remained behind at Carrington on Saturday and posted a picture from the session on his social media, with the caption: "Working in progress".
Erik ten Hag's side were beaten for the first time during pre-season, as Joao Felix's late strike proved decisive.
On for a couple minutes and he’s produced the game’s best pass already. Thankfully, the red card will not trigger a competitive ban for our no.17. Rashford then again looked to exploit Atletico’s backline, as the contest entered the last 10 minutes. Marcus Rashford was the first United player to trouble Jan Oblak early on. Victor Lindelof defended superbly to prevent Geoffrey Kondogbia from handing Diego Simeone’s side the lead soon after. Erik ten Hag also handed a debut to new signing Christian Eriksen.

Man United were beaten 1-0 by Atletico Madrid in Oslo, but they matched the Spanish giants and there were some good performances. Here are five talking ...
They began in the heat and humidity of Bangkok and ended in the more traditional summer heat of Oslo yesterday. De Gea clipped one pass into midfield that ended back in Atletico's possession, but generally United tried to stick to the approach. The drop-off between Jadon Sancho and Anthony Elanga was stark and there were no game-changing options in attack off the bench. This looked like a contest between two well-matched teams, although the result was familiar. We should caution against reading too much into this pre-season friendly, but the contrast was obvious, as was the impact Ten Hag is having. Justice was done in the second leg when United never looked particularly threatening at Old Trafford.
