Man United stars return to training ahead of Crystal Palace clash

On Wednesday, Erik ten Hag welcomed back two key players, Rasmus Hojlund and Mason Mount, to Manchester United's training ahead of their Premier League match against Crystal Palace. This return comes after a successful 7-0 victory over Barnsley in the Carabao Cup, which provided a morale boost for the team. Mount had previously suffered a hamstring injury, limiting his appearances this season, while Hojlund has yet to play competitively due to a hamstring issue sustained during pre-season. Mount had a promising start to the season, featuring in the first two Premier League matches before his injury against Brighton. His absence was felt as he had only managed 20 appearances in his debut season with United, following a significant transfer from Chelsea. Hojlund, on the other hand, is still looking to make his mark after missing out on competitive action since August. The return of these players is crucial for Ten Hag, who has faced challenges with injuries affecting his squad. The team is looking to build on their recent success and regain momentum in the league. The upcoming match against Crystal Palace is seen as an opportunity to capitalize on the confidence gained from their recent cup performance. With players like Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho finding their scoring form, United aims to continue their positive trajectory. The return of Mount and Hojlund could provide the necessary depth and quality to enhance their chances in the Premier League as they seek to improve their standings.
