However, for all the talent Erik ten Hag and United have been unable to call upon - at various times - there is one man they sorely miss when he finds himself in the Carrington treatment room and cannot do without. You get the feeling if Ten Hag could clone anyone in his squad it would be Raphael Varane.
When fit, firing and available, Varane plays. It really is that simple for Ten Hag with a small caveat being presented as and when the fixture list starts to pile up as it will continue to do so after the October break. His five-minute cameo came when Jonny Evans picked up a slight knock. Until then, the veteran Northern Irishman and Harry Maguire more than did the job they were asked to do.
However, while Varane would ordinarily come back into the starting line-up with no questions asked, his manager might just have an impossible decision to make. Does a must-win Champions League meeting with the Danes take priority or does that tag go to the Manchester derby?
