The 22-year-old was named as an unused substitute in the Red Devils' win over West Ham - a game that saw Anthony Elanga start in his place. Another blow for United is that Martial won't be involved as he continues his rehabilitation from injury at Carrington, with the Frenchman recovering from a back injury. Antony and Martial will miss the game through injury, while Sancho is unwell and will also sit out the trip to Spain. The 22-year-old received some pretty brutal criticism after he performed a double-pirouette in United's 3-0 success over Sheriff Tiraspol last Thursday.

Ronaldo has 15 goals in 10 appearances against Real Sociedad and it would be useful if he extended that impressive record on Thursday night. De Gea has started every game for United this season and that run will continue in Spain, while I would also name an unchanged back four. This is a bigger game than last week so Garnacho might have to make an impact off the bench. The back five should not change and, such is the importance of Casemiro and Christian Eriksen, retaining them would also be logical. Sancho’s absence means Rashford and Elanga are the likeliest options on the wing. The Reds have 12 points in their Europa League group, but Real Sociedad are ahead with 15 points.

The Brazilian midfielder has begun to show his best form after moving from Real Madrid last summer.

A draw would see Real Sociedad win the group, but Ten Hag believes they won’t be able to sit back for ninety minutes. “We know it's difficult to win games here but we like the challenge. "I said it the other day, he is the cement between the stones in and out of possession. I really like it and he will be more and more important to our team.” “It's six weeks ago or so and it's a different team, not all the players then are fit,” he said. "Because with Real Madrid he won everything.”

Sociedad could draw or lose by a single goal and still go straight into the round of 16. The Spanish side are top of Group E by three points with a better goal difference.

It isn't really a facet of his game that has developed a great deal. Simon would also offer reassurance with the ball at his feet. He has kept out three during Porto's Champions League group stage campaign, preserving his clean sheet on all occasions. It has been suggested this could be a barrier to his status as United's No 1 going forward under Ten Hag. [Recent reports](/sport/football/article-11360365/David-Gea-slash-375-000-week-wages-stay-Man-United.html) suggested Ten Hag still isn't entirely convinced the Spaniard is the right keeper for the system he wants United to play. In terms of passing out from the back, De Gea currently has a 100 per cent completion rate for passes of between five and 15 yards, and 98.9 per cent for passes between 15 and 30 yards. Costa is comfortable with the ball at his feet and has a good range of passing ability De Gea has always refuted the claims, pointing out he has to play the ball out with Spain. The fact he has been the fans' player of the year four times and the players' player of the year four times during his time at United just underlines his importance. The 57 goals De Gea conceded in the league alone last season was the highest of his time with United - though that owed plenty to the shaky defence in front of him. There has always been a perception that De Gea isn't comfortable with the ball at his feet in the same way as Liverpool's Alisson Becker or Manchester City's Ederson are. Despite his long-standing service and excellence between the posts during what has been a lean period for United in terms of silverware, De Gea may have to take a significant pay reduction to stay at Old Trafford.

Although he has been warned over further spending this winter, his latest Europa League squad will be his biggest argument for why the club need to invest further. Martin Dubravka, Radek Vítek and Facundo Pellistri have all been included for the trip to Spain, yet none of the trio are yet to play for the club. The match will decide who tops the group, with [Ten Hag's](https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/all-about/erik-ten-hag) side needing to win by two or more goals to confirm top spot. Shola Shoretire and Zidane Iqbal are two promising youngsters, yet neither of them have started a game for United.

Casemiro flanked Erik ten Hag at the Man United press conference on Wednesday and their rapport has underpinned the team's recent success.

Maybe I can bring a few things on the pitch but it's impossible to change the dynamic for one player.
