Manchester United manager will not rush back pair‘We hope we can integrate them in a very careful way’
Erik ten Hag says he has learned lessons from being forced to select players who were not fully fit last season. The Manchester United manager has no plans to rush back Mason Mount and Rasmus Højlund for Saturday’s trip to Crystal Palace as he aims to avoid a repeat of previous injury crises.
Mount started August’s Community Shield and the first two Premier League matches before being withdrawn at half-time in the defeat at Brighton with a hamstring injury, and Højlund is yet to feature because of a hamstring problem. Mount missed 30 games through injury last season, his first after joining from Chelsea.
