🚨BREAKING NEWS :ETH given double injury boost as 2 MU stars return ahead of Crystal Palace clash

Erik ten Hag received a double boost on Wednesday when he welcomed two first-team stars to Manchester United’s training sessions.

   The Red Devils were all smiles at their Carrington training ground after thrashing Barnsley 7-0 in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup at Old Trafford last night.

   After a torrid start to the campaign, the United boss has selected a strong line-up to face the Premier League side, despite missing several regulars through injury.

   Fortunately for the Dutchman, he managed to get at least two of them back into action shortly after the inclusion of Rasmus Hojlund and Mason Mount in their last session.

   Mount started the season well, starting the first two Premier League games against Fulham and Brighton before being withdrawn at half-time against the Seagulls with a hamstring problem.

   The 25-year-old made just 20 appearances – including five in the Premier League – in his first season at United following his £60m move from Chelsea, mainly due to a hamstring injury which kept him out for four months.

   Hojlund, meanwhile, is yet to feature for the team in a competitive game this term after limping off in a friendly against Arsenal in August.

   The Danish international also suffered a hamstring injury.

   In the game against Topničar, summer signing Leny Yoro also picked up a foot injury, which is expected to keep him out until November.

   The Ten Hags return to Premier League action on Saturday night when they take on Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.

   Tuesday’s League Cup win gave several players a much-needed confidence boost.

   Both Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho scored, and Antony was also among the scorers after successfully realizing a kick from the spot.

   United go into the game on the back of a comfortable 3-0 win over Southampton at St Mary’s last week.
