Man Utd could be without TEN players for Crystal Palace

Manchester United could be without ten players for Wednesday night's clash with Crystal Palace.

United lost Ander Herrera, Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard during Sunday's goalless draw with Liverpool. Marcus Rashford was also hurt but was able to see out the match.

They join Nemanja Matic, Anthony Martial, Phil Jones, Matteo Darmian and Antonio Valencia on the sidelines. Marcos Rojo is also questionable.

"We've not had a session yet, so I don't think there are a lot of positives, no," said Solskjaer.

"I don't know the list [of players] that's supposed to be injured, Matteo [Darmian] trained the other day. I don't think he'll be ready.

"Martial is not going to be ready for this one either. We can't risk it. Maybe Southampton but we are not going to risk another one.

"[Marcos] Rojo will be involved. Rashford we're still waiting to see how his ankle is responding to the treatment, muscle injuries are too early to think about. That's it.

"Phil was ill one of the days last week, so he's been out for a little while as well with an illness.

"Luckily at centre-back, there are quite a few fit ones, Victor [Lindelof], Chris [Smalling] and Eric [Bailly], the three of them are ready."
