Casemiro, Luke Shaw, and Marcus Rashford scored in United's 3-0 win over Bournemouth earlier in the week, continuing their winning streak into 2023. Rashford was reinstated to the starting lineup after being benched against Wolves.
The 2015–16 season saw United's most recent victory in the FA Cup, which the club has won 12 times overall. This season, United has made good progress in the League Cup and will also be hoping to advance further in the FA Cup.
Martinez aside, that is as good as it gets for United, a true declaration of intent in the third round of the FA Cup.
In terms of the caliber of opposition and the distance travelled, it demonstrates how valuable Ten Hag is currently viewing the cups, and United have undoubtedly benefited from a kind festive schedule. Their only journey since the World Cup ended has been a brief trip down the M6 to Wolverhampton. Since the break, momentum has been maintained, and Ten Hag's choice suggests he wants to keep it up into the week of the derby.
