Posted on September 26, 2019 by | Comments Off on McTominay aiming to cement his starting spot at Manchester United

Scotland international Scott McTominay is determined to cement the starting role with Manchester United. The youngster has been in-and-out of the first XI for the Red Devils over the past two seasons but he has been afforded with the chance to solidify the starting berth alongside Paul Pogba this campaign.

Speaking to MUTV, McTominay said that he is keen to impress the manager such that he can command the midfield role on the weekly basis, he quipped: “Yeah, of course. You have to look game by game and look to try and keep impressing the coaches and training is a big part of it. I feel like the game is the end result of a big training week and obviously we don’t get too many long training weeks like we’ve had the last couple of weeks and obviously it’s important to show the coaches you are capable of being in midfield every week and if you’re not you have to show them that you are capable of it. That’s the way that a lot of the lads in the changing room look at it.”

This club has shaped me, both as a player and as a person, so it is such a privilege every time I get the opportunity to wear the shirt. I want to thank Ole and his staff for everything they have done for me; they are the perfect group of coaches to learn from as I continue my development and look to push on to the next level,” he told the club’s official website.

Posted on April 27, 2019 by | Comments Off on Marcos Rojo returns to fitness at a crucial time for United

Marcos Rojo claims that he is ready to repay the faith shown by manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in the absence of Luke Shaw. The 29-year-old has had fitness issues throughout the campaign and he has been able to start in just three league matches so far. The record in the other competitions has also not been great with the Argentine starting just one game in the Champions League. However, the 29-year-old was able to feature for United in the recent game against West Ham. Even though he did not last the whole match, the Argentine did complete 75 minutes of action.

His availability is a major positive for Solskjaer, who will be without Luke Shaw due to suspension. Rojo’s Manchester United future is a major doubt with the player reportedly on the verge of leaving the club at the end of the season. However, Rojo has now claimed thatSolskjaer has promised him a place in the squad once he returns to fitness. Signed by Louis van Gaal in the summer of 2014 from Sporting CP, Rojo has had to work under three different managers at United. His best season with the club was during the 2016-17 campaign when he made 41 appearances, but he has been unable to even hit 30 appearances in the other three full campaigns.

Posted on April 17, 2019 by | Comments Off on JesperBlomqvistexpecting big things out of United defender

Jesper Blomqvist remains as one of the high-profile Swedish players to have represented Manchester United in the past. The former winger, who played for United between 1998 and 2001, has claimed that defender Victor Lindelof is on his way to becoming one of the key players for the Red Devils. The 24-year-old was signed after a long pursuit by then-manager Jose Mourinho in the summer of 2017. He was about to join United even as early as a year ago. The total fee for the defender was around € 35 million in addition to a bonus of around € 10 million depending on performances.

Even though Lindelof has not been able to produce a consistent set of performances throughout his time at United, the defender has been slowly growing in confidence. He has now been able to establish himself more often in the first-team in his second full season with the club. After making 29 appearances in his first season with United, Lindelof has featured in 35 games so far. Even after a managerial change that saw the arrival of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the 24-year-old has kept himself in the first-team reckoning. His versatility is a major factor that has helped him grow, andBlomqvist claims that Lindelof can only get better in the coming years underSolskjaer.
