Ten Hag started off his coaching career with Manchester United with a 4-0 bashing of Liverpool in the Thailand preseason. In the course of the match, some Manchester United youngsters performed well....CONTINUE READING
In this article, we will look at 4 players that Ten Hag should consider making regular players after their performance against Liverpool. Without further mouthing, let us delve in.
1. Amad Diallo
Amad Diallo is a 38 million-pound player loaned out last year to get regular playing time. With the maturity he showed in the game against Liverpool, it will not be wrong to assert that he has what it takes to break into the first team.
His central talking point in the game was when he used his left foot to slide a pass for Pellistri who drove the shot past the Liverpool goalkeeper.
At times when he was surrounded by opposition players, he made mature touches and maintained a lot of balance. If Amad Diallo continues with such stellar performances, he can beat Sancho and Rashford in becoming regular players at Manchester United.
2. Eric Bailly
Eric Bailly is another interesting player who made an impression on Ten Hag in the game against Liverpool. Based on the maturity that was exhibited in the game, Ten Hag should consider making him a regular player for Manchester United.
He has been having his past seasons at Manchester United riddled with injuries. If he stays fit, he can replace the likes of Harry Maguire and Varane.
3. Anthony Elanga
Another player that was in the spotlight against Liverpool is Anthony Elanga. Elanga is one of the players that came in and contributed immensely to the possession chain of Manchester United against Liverpool.
He exhibited spatial awareness and was difficult to predict. Elanga made an impression on Ten Hag, which is enough to make Ten Hag consider making him a regular player ahead of the 2022/2023 Premier League season.
4. Facundo Pellistri
This young Manchester United player made an impression on Ten Hag in the game by getting on the scoresheet. Pellistri put one against Liverpool in the 76th minute of second-half match action. His goal was assisted by Amad Diallo. It is important to note that Pellistri is still developing as a player.
He is not the best passer, shooter, or dribbler, but in the game against Liverpool, he was adept at using them to the fullest. He deserves regular playing time due to how he showed class against Liverpool.
