And Bruce is assessing Longstaff – who was fielded as a No.10 by United’s head coach – and Manquillo ahead of the game, after they were forced off with injuries during the game.

“We’ve got a few (injury problems),” said Bruce. “Sean’s got a hamstring, unfortunately, which is a blow. It’s as good as I’ve seen him. We’ve got one or two others. Manquillo’s got a bit of a strain. I’ll not know until the next 24 or 48 hours.”
