Man United are nonetheless ready to see whether or not Kobbie Mainoo can be match sufficient to play towards Aston Villa this weekend.
Manchester United Soccer Membership haven’t gained of their final 4 video games. Two in Europe, two within the Premier League. Strain is now mounting on Erik ten Hag after some poor outcomes and performances.
Subsequent up, it doesn’t get any simpler. An away recreation towards Aston Villa is rarely straightforward, although they’re in nice kind and feeling good after beating Bayern Munich within the Champions League. Our lads must be someplace near their greatest to safe a constructive end result right here.
Forward of the sport, Ten Hag has admitted we’ll should ‘wait and see’ on the health of key star Kobbie Mainoo, who has been coping with an issue. The Englishman solely made the bench towards Porto however didn’t play because it was too large a danger. He’s nonetheless coping with that challenge and in the meanwhile, his choice standing stays up within the air.
Try what the gaffer needed to say in full right here:
“So we had three gamers with points going into this recreation,” Ten Hag instructed membership media.
“Harry Maguire, Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo. Harry and Alejandro made the squad and have been succesful to play some minutes, whereas Mainoo didn’t make it. It was too large a danger.
“We’ve got to attend and see if he [Mainoo] can play on Sunday. If he’s match sufficient to start out or be on the bench.”
United are a greater workforce with Mainoo in it. The younger Englishman definitely provides some stability to the midfield and with out him, there’s a lack of mobility because it doubtless means Christian Eriksen will proceed to start out.
Nonetheless, it’s not a danger I might take. You can’t gamble with the health of one among your greatest performers, notably once they’re so younger and so they’ve been enjoying quite a lot of soccer over the past twelve months.
Sadly, Ten Hag has displayed a bent to gamble with the health of his guys, so it genuinely wouldn’t shock me within the slightest if Mainoo does begin.
Do you suppose Kobbie Mainoo can be match sufficient to start out towards Aston Villa? Tell us your ideas within the remark field under.
