Astana vs Man Utd: four key players
Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, has confirmed he will hand four players debuts in their starting line-up against Astana on Thursday in the Europa League.
Solskjaer has selected an inexperienced team for the trip to Kazakhstan, with his side needing just a point to qualify for the knockout stage.
