Comment on Man Utd vs Fulham
In theory, Man Utd is stronger than its opponent in every aspect. But right at a sensitive time of the season, coach Erik ten Hag received a lot of bad news from the medical department. Lisandro Martinez can only return in April. Luke Shaw is likely to have to miss the rest of the season. On February 23, it was Rasmus Hojlund’s turn to suffer a muscle injury and have to miss at least 5 matches.
Everyone understands how important Rasmus Hojlund’s role is for the Red Devils. This striker scored 7 goals in the last 6 matches and helped Man Utd win. Not only statistically effective, Hojlund also contributed significantly to the overall playing style of the Old Trafford team. He played energetically and enthusiastically and showed bright spots in his running ability and ball-handling thinking.
But also because of the enthusiasm of youth, Rasmus Hojlund suffered an injury after a period of continuous “plowing”. The person chosen to start instead of this striker will be Marcus Rashford. The star born in 1997 is in bad form, but coach Erik ten Hag has no one else.
Garnacho plays on the left wing – the biggest hope at the moment. On the right flank, Antony will have the opportunity to regain what he lost.
On the other side of the front line, Fulham lost key midfielder Palhinha due to suspension. Striker duo Jimenez and Broja are unlikely to play due to injury. Midfielder Bassey is trying to return to play alongside Diop, but this possibility is unlikely.
Fulham understands what they need to do when they have to play against a big team. Man Utd is unstable this season but they still have stars who know how to handle the situation. Fulham caused many difficulties in the first leg for Man Utd before Bruno shined when the final whistle was about to sound. This time, a tight defensive counter-attack continues to be deployed by Fulham and they hope to win 1 point.
