Manchester United Confirmed lineup vs Bournemouth: Alexis in for Rashford; No Lukaku in squad

Jose Mourinho has thrown a curveball by starting Alexis Sanchez as the central striker, with Marcus Rashford dropping to the Manchester United bench against Bournemouth.

Alexis Sanchez has returned to the starting eleven, albeit as the central striker, with Marcus Rashford dropping to the bench. The rest of the starting eleven remains unchanged, with Fred managing to to retain his spot in midfield while Anthony Martial starts on the left again.

In a rather surprising move, Romelu Lukaku is not included in the matchday squad, leaving Marcus Rashford as the only real option on the bench, should Alexis Sanchez struggle to get the ball into the net.
