Confirmed: Our travelling squad to face Barcelona

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is taking a 22-man squad to Barcelona for the UEFA Champions League quarter-final second leg on Tuesday night.

The Reds were beaten 1-0 in the first leg at Old Trafford last week and fly to Catalonia this Monday morning, determined to stage a comeback to earn qualification to the competition’s semi-finals.

Solskjaer has named a large group for the trip that notably includes Matteo Darmian, Nemanja Matic and Alexis Sanchez, who have all recently been missing due to injury.

Luke Shaw is among the travelling players, despite the fact he is suspended for the match after picking up a yellow card against the Spanish league leaders last week.

Our travelling squad to Barcelona: David De Gea, Sergio Romero, Lee Grant, Diogo Dalot, Matteo Darmian, Ashley Young, Phil Jones, Victor Lindelof, Marcos Rojo, Chris Smalling, Luke Shaw, Fred, Nemanja Matic, Scott McTominay, Andreas Pereira, Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard, Juan Mata, Anthony Martial, Alexis Sanchez, Romelu Lukaku, Marcus Rashford.

United secured a famous turnaround against Paris Saint-Germain in the previous round, losing 2-0 at Old Trafford before earned a 3-1 victory in France to go through on away goals.

That success gives everybody confidence that another fightback can be staged against Barcelona, but Marcus Rashford has suggested Barcelona pose a different threat to PSG.

“We’ll always take confidence from that but we also understand that it’s not PSG, it’s a different match, a different atmosphere, it’s a completely different ball game,“ he told us.

"We go there confident but if we’re going to win it’s probably going to be different to how we did it in Paris. For us now we need to forget about the past. We know we’ve done it before, but all the focus has to be on how we’re going to do it again because they’re a strong team.”
