#2 Eric Bailly needs to remain fit
The Ivorian centre-back made his first start for Manchester United since November after a nasty injury took place that kept him out of contention for months on end.
Even though he might have been lacking match sharpness, he didn’t show it at all. Against Liverpool, Bailly was phenomenal.
He might have scored an unfortunate own goal, but his overall game was sensational and was not from a player you would have thought was just returning after a lengthy layoff.
Bailly is comfortably United’s best defender and is the commander in the defence. The Red Devils’ back line looks far more organized and structured with the former Villarreal player in the line-up than without.
The problem has been his regular injuries. Somehow, no matter at what cost, United must keep Bailly fit for long parts of the season - especially in the crucial games.
United are at the business end of the season now and will be thankful that the Ivorian international is back and raring to go.
