What do you think of Manchester United's new away kit?
Manchester United are in Osaka to take on Shinji Kagawa's old club, Cerezo Osaka, for the club's fourth friendly of their 2013 pre-season tour.
After losing 3-2 to Yokohama F Marinos on Tuesday, David Moyes will be looking for a better showing as United continue their pre-season tour.
Although pre-season matches are aimed at raising players’ fitness levels rather than results, Moyes will be unhappy at how his players under-performed in Tuesday’s defeat and will expect an improvement. Moyes revealed in his press conference today that he is likely to use most of his squad during the game due to the conditions.
Speaking to reporters, Moyes said: “It’s very hot and the conditions are difficult for players from our country who are not used to training and playing in these conditions.
CONFIRMED LINE UP: Lindegard; Rafael, Smalling, Ferdinand, Buttner; Giggs, Jones; Young, Kagawa, Welbeck; RVP.
Here's a full listing of the squad that is currently in Japan:
Goalkeepers: David de Gea, Anders Lindegaard, Ben Amos
Defenders: Rio Ferdinand, Jonny Evans, Phil Jones, Michael Keane, Rafael, Fabio, Alexander Buttner, Patrice Evra, Chris Smalling
Midfielders: Michael Carrick, Tom Cleverley, Anderson, Ryan Giggs, Wilfried Zaha, Jesse Lingard, Adnan Januzaj, Shinji Kagawa, Ashley Young
Forwards: Danny Welbeck, Robin van Persie
