This weekend, Manchester United will face their fierce rivals Liverpool in a highly anticipated Premier League clash. As the team prepares for the game, manager Erik ten Hag has received some advice to drop a key player from the line-up.
Last weekend, United suffered a disappointing defeat against Brighton, and they will be looking to bounce back at Old Trafford on Sunday. Despite starting their season with a narrow victory over Fulham, they were unable to maintain their winning streak and conceded a late goal to Brighton.
On the other hand, Liverpool has had a strong start to their season under the leadership of new manager Arne Slot. They have achieved two consecutive wins, including a 2-0 victory over newly-promoted Ipswich Town and a 2-0 win against Brentford.
Ten Hag is already busy preparing for the upcoming match against Liverpool and has been advised to make at least one change to the team. Many believe that dropping Marcus Rashford, who has struggled in the previous season and has not yet found his form this season, would be a wise decision.
In their last game against Brighton, Rashford was substituted after 65 minutes and replaced by Alejandro Garnacho, who almost scored a late goal that was disallowed due to a VAR decision. Former England striker Darren Bent has been impressed by Garnacho's performance in this game and his previous appearances, including the Community Shield final against Manchester City.
Bent believes that Garnacho should be starting alongside Amad Diallo and Joshua Zirkzee in the front three. He also feels that Ten Hag can only protect Rashford for so long and that it is time to give Garnacho a chance to shine.
The young player has shown great energy and determination in his previous games, and Bent believes that he is now ready for a starting position. He also expresses concern that constantly overlooking Garnacho could lead to frustration for the player and the fans.
Bent questions Rashford's place in the team, stating that he has not shown much to deserve it over Garnacho. He praises the young player's hunger and directness, stating that there is no reason why he should not be starting.
While Bent acknowledges that Ten Hag may have his own reasoning, he strongly believes that Garnacho should be given a chance to prove himself as a valuable member of the team. As United fans eagerly await the team news for the upcoming match, it remains to be seen if Ten Hag will take Bent's advice and give Garnacho a starting spot.
