How does Manchester United line up without Shesko? Manchester United: No forward formation, Mount starts, Amad is at No. 10

In the 12th round of the Premier League this weekend, Manchester United will face Everton at home. The "Manchester Evening News" talked about the Red Devils' personnel selection.

Manchester United and Amorim are anxiously awaiting an update on Sheshko's injury, who limped off the field in the team's draw with Tottenham. Zirkzee is currently the only experienced striker available to Amorim, but he has been a fringe figure in the first team this season.

If Sheshko is unable to participate in this game, how will Manchester United arrange their troops?

If Zirkzee is still not in Amorim's eyes, then Manchester United may adopt a strikerless formation against Everton. This may mean that Mazrawi will continue to serve as right-back, while Ahmad will take up the No. 10 position. Mbemo may move to the left, with Cunha acting as a false 9 to lead the team's offensive line.

This arrangement can allow Mazrawi to get more valuable playing time, because he has just recovered from injury. At the same time, this can also allow Amad to be closer to the offensive end, and he sometimes struggles to cope with defensive tasks in the right-back position.

However, if Everton defend low at Old Trafford, using Ahmed as a right-wing back may be a good option. If Amorim uses this scheme, Mount will return to the starting lineup, partnering Mbemo. Amorim admires Mount very much, and Mount's injury control so far this season is quite ideal.

Manchester United have performed quite well when using a forward-less formation this season, so even if Sheshko is absent, Amorim still has multiple options, and the impact of the Slovenian center's absence may not be as serious as expected.
