Manchester United team vs Arsenal: Martial and Lukaku lead line as Matic starts
MANCHESTER UNITED have named their team for today's Premier League clash against Arsenal at the Emirates.
Manchester United take on Arsenal aiming to close the gap on Manchester City at the top of the table.
And, in the build up to today's showdown at the Emirates, Arsene Wenger praised Jose Mourinho for strengthening the Red Devils.
“Yes, certainly he has had time to put his print on the team, he is now in his second year,” Wenger said.
“They look to be a strong team. They have power, they have a lot of power up front.
"Every player has power. Romelu Lukaku, now [Zlatan] Ibrahimovic is back and you can't say this guy lacks power; Marcus Rashford, [Anthony] Martial.
“They all have power, so our defensive performance will be important when we don't have the ball against them.
"Overall I believe that they are a dangerous side, you look at their players and they can be dangerous everywhere.”
United have gone strong for today's game.
David De Gea starts in goal with Antonio Valencia and Ashley Young starting at wing back.
Marcos Rojo, Victor Lindelof and Chris Smalling start at the back with Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba in the middle.
