Manchester United might need to settle upon a new strongest line up as they look to salvage their season with success in the Europa League. Ruben Amorim's side are almost certain to record their lowest ever Premier League finish, while they could also end the campaign trophyless.
United have not won consecutive league matches this season and played out a dire draw with Man City over the weekend that leaves them 13th in the table, still seven points away from the top-half. United could yet salvage their season with Champions League qualification, though and will be guaranteed a place in the competition if they manage to win the Europa League.
United face Lyon in a two-legged quarter-final tie this month, with the first leg in France on Thursday night. Amorim will hope to see his side progress to the last four of the tournament and will have to get his team selection spot on if they are to do so. Here is what we think the new strongest line up could look like.
