Erik ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, ought to think about starting Alejandro Garnacho against Burnley on Saturday night at Turf Moor.
On Wednesday night, the Red Devils were defeated for the third time in a row. In the group stage of the Champions League, Bayern Munich defeated them 4-3.
Given the short turnaround before the trip to Burnley, United doesn’t have time to reflect on the outcome.
Ten Hag will undoubtedly make a few adjustments to the starting lineup before the game, and in our opinion, Garnacho should start against the Clarets.
The former United player only played 20 minutes of regular time for the Red Devils in all competitions after starting the first two games of the season.
In the 81st minute against Bayern, he came on to replace Facundo Pellistri and had a fun cameo.
Three of the 19-year-old’s four contests were won.
Marcus Rashford’s perilous cross from the right side for the wonderkid, valued at €25 million, also resulted in one interception, though he should have scored.
When United travels to Lancashire to take on Vincent Kompany’s team on Saturday, in our opinion, Garnacho deserves to get his first start for United since August 19.
It is clear that Ten Hag won’t ever think about benching Rashford. Pellistri will probably be replaced by Garnacho, who will start the game.
Rashford would need to switch positions as a result. As was the case in yesterday’s game, the Englishman might operate from the right side to accommodate Garnacho on the left wing.
Rashford appears far more at ease crossing the ball from the right, based on our assessment.
