Erik ten Hag was critical of the Man Utd performance in a friendly defeat to Rosenborg but he has confirmed three senior stars will be added to the squad for the pre-season tour of the United States.
Erik ten Hag has confirmed Scott McTominay, Rasmus Hojlund and Christian Eriksen will be part of Manchester United's pre-season tour of the United States.
United took to the field in Norway with only six players - Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Jonny Evans, Casemiro, Mason Mount, Hannibal Mejbri and Marcus Rashford - with significant first-team experience, but Ten Hag confirmed after the game that McTominay, Eriksen and Hojlund would all be part of the squad that travels to America.
"Then players returning will come back, then it'll be everyone there and we are fit and we'll have only the slot of a week, then we go into a final. So it's frustrating. Of course you hope to work on patterns to bring the team to your team. It's of course very difficult, complicated, but never mind - you have to perform. You have to work on yourself and get yourself ready for the season.
He expanded on those concerns after the game and said players must get themselves in a position to be ready when they return, saying he expected this season to turn into a "survival of the fittest".
