Manchester United’s manager, Erik Ten Hag, provided an update on his players’ fitness ahead of their crucial game against Arsenal.
During a pre-match press conference, Ten Hag confirmed that Lisandro Martinez is willing to play against Arsenal, but he needs more time to go through the process before he is ready.
Ten Hag also spoke about Mason Mount, who recently suffered another injury, his second major injury since joining Manchester United from Chelsea. He described the situation as very unfortunate and unlucky, as the team has had many injuries this season. However, he praised Mount’s robust playing style, as he had played almost all the games in the last three seasons with a three-day turnaround.
Ten Hag suggested that fatigue from his days at Chelsea could have contributed to his current injury situation. He added that Mount is a good player, and they have missed him across the season, as he would have had a contribution to their levels.
Despite Mason’s absence, United’s supporters hope that the available players can defeat Arsenal at Old Trafford.
