The new United phenomenon that improves Cristiano

Mason Greenwood is here to stay. What he aimed for many years in the lower categories of Manchester United is taking him to the first team from the day of his debut, almost two years ago. It is only his second full season in the first squad, but he has already had time to break several important records at Old Trafford. For example, the last: this weekend he scored his 16th goal in the Premier League before he was 20 years old, thus surpassing the previous limit of Wayne Rooney. In fact, a few days ago he already left behind the figure of Marcus Rashford, who scored a total of 13 league goals as a teenager. His numbers are also better than those of Cristiano Ronaldo or Ryan Giggs, almost nothing.

Without Cavani in the starting eleven, Greenwood adapts to the team's position of nine, although in other circumstances he has occupied the right wing. With his ability to shoot with both legs, the young Englishman has all kinds of resources to find the goal. This course adds 11 goals and six assists. Of his goals, six have been in the Premier League and five of them have come in the last month, at which point Manchester United are confirming their second position in the championship. Despite his dream month, Greenwood still has not reached his numbers from last season, which was his first as a professional, where he surprised everyone: 19 goals (10 in the Premier League) and four assists, which earned him a call-up with the England senior team at the beginning of the season.

His coach, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, made him debut at the Parc des Princes in a tie against PSG in the Champions League and has since saved a place for him in his plans.s. Although Manchester United will play three games in six days, Greenwood started at Villa Park this Sunday: “He's top, he has all kinds of definitions. Thursday was a long night, he worked a lot today and I thought about taking him off at halftime because the boy needs to rest. But then he showed what he's capable of. The best.”
