Erik ten Hag has named his starting line-up for Manchester United's Premier League tussle with Brighton & Hove Albion at Old Trafford this afternoon, making a cluster of changes.
'Going to a great team' - Fred accidentally confirms Manchester United's next summer signing

Former Manchester United midfielder Fred looks to have confirmed Altay Bayindir’s transfer from Fenerbahce, insisting the goalkeeper is heading to a 'great team'.
Bayindir looks set to become the fourth major signing at United, arriving in a €5million (£4.29m) deal. The 25-year-old will replace Dean Henderson, who is expected to join Crystal Palace permanently after a £20m deal was agreed.
While Bayindir's transfer to United has been on the cards for some time - the club had conducted initial medical tests early last week - it has seemingly been put on hold as Henderson's exit is finalised. Erik ten Hag's side are expected to push on and conclude the deal this week.
Fred joined Fenerbahce in a €15m deal earlier this summer, making his debut against Samsunspor last week. The Brazilian may only have been teammates with Bayindir for a matter of weeks, but speaking during his delayed unveiling press conference, appeared to confirm the goalkeeper's imminent exit.

United manager Erik ten Hag is keen to push forward for further signings, once Bayindir's arrival is confirmed. The Dutchman is weighing up short-term options to come in at left-back, following an injury to Luke Shaw.
Marc Cucurella and Sergio Reguilon, of Chelsea and Tottenham respectively, are among a number of targets, while United are also interested in Barcelona's Marcos Alonso. There could also be a late move for
