"Manchester United team news is in as the Red Devils' new interim manager Michael Carrick has named his starting XI to take on Manchester City. See below as Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo return for Man Utd as they return to Premier League action after going away with their national sides for AFCON. See below for Carrick's XI in his first game in charge of United since replacing caretaker manager Darren Fletcher, who in turn had replaced the recently-sacked Ruben Amorim"
"The players are listed in number order rather than by position, which means it's not entirely clear what the system is. Bryan Mbeumo of Manchester United (Photo by Carl Recine/Getty Images) Carrick will likely have moved away from using three at the back like Amorim did, but it's still going to be tricky for the new MUFC boss to work out how to get the best out of his players with some big names on the bench."
Michael Carrick has named his starting XI for the Manchester derby against Manchester City, with Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo returning following AFCON duty. The club's graphic lists players by shirt number rather than by position, leaving the formation unclear. Carrick will likely move away from Amorim's three-at-the-back setup, but the best system remains uncertain with several high-profile players on the bench. Benjamin Sesko and Matheus Cunha do not start, suggesting Mbeumo could lead the attack with Patrick Dorgu and Amad Diallo supporting. Kobbie Mainoo returns to the starting lineup and has been assured of an important role this season.
