"He Starts, Means Another Loss", "All You Can Do Is Laugh" - Fans React to Manchester United Star's Inclusion in XI for Newcastle Clash
Injuries and suspensions leave Manchester United with tough selection choices for the Boxing Day match, with key players Bruno Fernandes and Kobbie Mainoo sidelined.
- On Friday, Manchester United's predicted XI names Senne Lammens with Mason Mount , Matheus Cunha and Benjamin Sesko leading the attack at 8pm GMT at Old Trafford, Manchester.
- With key absences, Kobbie Mainoo is sidelined with a calf injury while Casemiro returns from suspension, and Bruno Fernandes faces a spell out after injury, limiting midfield options.
- United's recent form shows they have won only one of eight away matches, that win at Everton last month, and lost 2-1 to Aston Villa on Sunday with a central midfielder playing at right-back.
- The combination of Newcastle form and United disruption suggests Eddie Howe's Newcastle have an edge after winning five of six and benefiting from six days' rest before the Boxing Day match at Old Trafford.
- Despite the nostalgia, the fixture recalls the Keegan–Ferguson rivalry, with only Newcastle United in this season's Champions League, Charlie Bennett noted in December 2025.
