After losing their two opening games in the Premier League 2022-23 season, Eric ten Hag's Manchester United have received a lot of criticism from football experts and fans. Ahead of their third PL game against Liverpool on Monday, the United coach has been considering dropping the skipper, Harry Magurie from the squad.

Manchester United, who failed to qualify for the Champions League this season, lost 1-2 to Brighton and Hove Albion in their Premier League opener on August 7 before facing a humiliating 4-0 defeat from Brentford on Saturday.

According to reports in the Manchester Evening News, United boss Erik ten Hag is looking to replace Harry Maguire with Raphael Varane to play alongside new centre-back Lisandro Martinez at Old Trafford on August 23.

The Red Devils roped in defender Lisandro Martinez in a £55.3m transfer from Ajax this summer. Former Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane picked up an injury during pre-season and is all set to join the Manchester United squad against Liverpool.

Both United and Liverpool will be looking to register their first win in the Premier League this season as the Red Devils lost both their openers while Liverpool had to settle with a draw in their opening two games against Fulham and Crystal Palace.
