Manchester United's squad has received a major boost with the return of Mason Mount and Rasmus Hojlund. After a disappointing result against Twente raised questions about the team's current form, their comeback could provide a much-needed lifeline for manager Ten Hag.

Manchester United drew 1-1 with FC Twente in a midweek clash that has put manager Erik ten Hag's job under pressure but now with two stars returning to the squad he may bounce back.AdvertisementAdvertisement

"Of course, they (the forwards) are all main (forwards), but Joshua (Zirkzee) is doing very good," he said. 

"He created a very good chance, it was a brilliant shot and a very good stop. 

"We are very pleased that Rasmus (Hojlund) is back, of course, and now he has to come up to full fitness, full speed, and he can score a goal, we know that. He’s very good in the box." 

United face Tottenham at the weekend who are coming off a 3-1 win at Brentford and a tough clash against Qarabag FK.
