Manchester United’s manager, Erik ten Hag, emphasized the necessity for his players to brace themselves for challenging times and make necessary adjustments due to a tightly packed schedule.
Ten Hag dismissed speculations linking their injury woes to the team’s training regimen, asserting that it’s not the cause.
Adding to their list of sidelined players, Mason Mount sustained a calf injury during a training session, joining the ranks alongside Casemiro, Lisandro Martinez, Christian Eriksen, Tyrell Malacia, and Jonny Evans.
The return of Luke Shaw after a three-month absence is a positive note ahead of their match against Everton. However, uncertainties loom over the availability of Rasmus Hojlund, Andre Onana, and Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

“In the initial 12 Premier League matches, the physical demands have noticeably escalated compared to the previous year. It presents choices,” Ten Hag commented.
“Players can either adapt through training and preparation or risk falling behind. It’s a decision every club, team, and individual must confront. Smart management is crucial. Endurance and sacrifice are known necessities for every team.”
