Man United manager Erik ten Hag is poised to make yet more changes to his defence against Sheffield United.
Eight matches into the Premier League season, Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag, quite staggeringly, has only been able to name the same back-four twice.
Ten Hag has named six different defensive combinations in United's last six league games, meaning it is hardly surprising they have recorded just two clean sheets in the league so far this season. Tyrell Malacia, Wan-Bissaka, Martinez and Shaw are all currently assigned to the treatment room, meaning there has been plenty of chopping and changing already this term.
But with Varane and Reguilon in contention to join Diogo Dalot, who has started each of the last six league matches, in the back-four, it means just one place remains up for grabs, that being the left-sided centre-back position. That berth is currently available as a result of Martinez suffering a recurrence of a foot injury he suffered back in April.
Given Varane and Martinez have both spent time on the treatment table already this season, it has been difficult to establish who is Ten Hag's first-choice back-up option. Lindelof ended last season third in the pecking order, overtaking Maguire towards the end of the campaign, with Evans arriving in the summer to take fifth.
