The boss confirmed Alexis Sanchez, who came off the bench at Chelsea on Saturday, is going to be missing as he was not part of the group that took part in the session in front of the media at the Aon Training Complex. Antonio Valencia recently underwent an operation that has had an impact on his fitness but he may be an option again in defence.

“The players you saw are the players that are available,” he said at his press conference at Old Traford. “[We have] Nothing to hide and Alexis is out.”
