Greenwood, a star is born

The name of Mason Greenwood is already on everyone's lips in EnglandIn his first season as a professional he has scored fifteen goals. The pearl of Manchester United You can play center forward, attacking midfielder, far right or left. When I was little I played as a midfielder. Greenwood also has all the records to shoot: it is completely ambidextrous, to the point of kicking corners or fouls with either leg. All his coaches have said it and he has repeated it Solskjaer In recent weeks, when he has established himself as a starter at United: “Greenwood is special.”

Although only 18 years old, he has spent a full season with the first team. In the summer, the Norwegian coach realized that it was not necessary to give him up, but to make room for him.

His debut at the first level had come a few months earlier, precisely in style, as his career points: he jumped onto the field in the Princes Park minutes before Rashford mark a penalty that eliminated the PSG in the Champions. Although he barely touched the ball, Greenwood (17) was pictured.

What has come in the subsequent months is what everyone in the quarry of Old Trafford they were waiting: a big bang. Although Greenwood is not born in Manchester, but in Bradford, he was recruited at age six. At 13 he broke Britain's record 100-meter dash. Her older sister, Ashton, is an athlete.

Last season he played games with the U-18, U-19, U-23 and the first team, an unmistakable sign of his progress, but it was in this course that Solskjaer gave him more prominence. Without going any further, the Norwegian has revealed that Greenwood is the best finisher he has on the roster.

Rashford and Martial they have reached 20 goals each, the first time that two Manchester United strikers have achieved it since the 2010-11 academic year, but Greenwood is not far behind, despite having played less: he has 15 goals starting from the right wing , place in which Solskjaer has reserved a place for him in the starting lineup to be part of the fantastic five together with the two mentioned, in addition to Pogba and Bruno Fernandes. In fact, since 2006 Manchester United had not repeated eleven in three consecutive games until this Saturday. And when he has, it has been with Mason Greenwood.
