\nManchester United were made to sweat by the Premier League’s bottom club Sheffield United, who twice took the lead but eventually the Red Devils prevailed 4-2 at Old Trafford on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Andre Onana gifted the opener to Jayden Bogle pretty much against the run of play before Harry Maguire equalised right before half-time.<\/p>\n

Ben Brereton Diaz once again put the Blades in front early in the second half forcing captain Bruno Fernandes to take the game by the scruff of the neck<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Portuguese scored twice and registered an assist with Erik ten Hag’s side putting up a much more controlled display where the team tried to hold on to possession<\/a> instead of relying on counter-attacks.<\/p>\n

New style<\/h5>\n

Whether this approach was instigated by new technical director Jason Wilcox’s instructions<\/a> remain unclear but with 19th-placed Burnley set for a visit to Old Trafford next, this approach is expected to continue.<\/p>\n

Against the Blades, Christian Eriksen made a rare start, only his second in 2024, which enabled the team to retain hold of the ball better and once again, the onus will fall on the midfield to dictate the tempo against Vincent Kompany’s team.<\/p>\n

And the Dutchman revealed that his midfield reserves will be strengthened as Mason Mount could be fit to play after he missed out against Coventry City and Sheffield United.<\/p>\n

The new-look backline of Casemiro and Harry Maguire is expected to continue despite conceding five goals against lowly opposition as none of the sidelined defenders are expected to be back in contention.<\/p>\n

“For coming back for the game against Burnley, I don’t expect them (the defenders). Mason Mount, he will return, I think,” Ten Hag told BBC’s Match of the Day<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Mount could be back<\/h5>\n

For the former Chelsea star, his debut campaign in red has been nothing short of disastrous, with the player missing 28 games through three separate injury spells.<\/p>\n

It was thought that the United No 7 would bounce back and silence his critics after his first goal for the club<\/a> against Brentford but he promptly got injured again<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It would be good for Mount’s confidence if he can get on the ball a bit more in this new style against the Clarets, a team which is low on confidence.<\/p>\n

With big games against Newcastle, Arsenal and Brighton coming up in the league ahead of the FA Cup final against Manchester City, Ten Hag will be hoping his summer signing can avoid another injury setback while also gaining in confidence so that he can prove why the club shelled out \u00a355 million for his services.<\/p>\n
