Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes recently talked about the challenges the team faced in the game in an interview. He said that all players in the team must find ways to create more scoring opportunities for the team, and stressed that the responsibility for scoring should not be placed entirely on Hoilund.
In the earlier focus match of the 34th round of the Premier League, Manchester United was leading but Ugarte assisted Hoilund to score in the final stage, and finally tied 1-1 with Bournemouth, who only had 10 players.
After only achieving 2 draws and 3 losses in the last 5 rounds, Manchester United is currently ranked 14th in the standings with 39 points.
In addition, the 22-year-old Manchester United striker Hojlund has contributed 4 goals for Manchester United so far this season and scored 5 goals in the UEFA Europa League.
Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes said, "We can't use Hojlund's lack of scoring as a cover-up, but he does need to score more goals. He is the team's No. 9 striker, and the No. 9 striker must score goals. Whether at Manchester United or any other club, as long as the No. 9 player does not score, the player will be discussed more."
"But Zirkzee has to score more goals, as do I, and Ganacho has to score more goals, as have Mount and Diallo. We have to find ways to create more scoring opportunities for the team."
Bruno Fernandes also pointed out, "We need to understand the characteristics of each player. We must judge who the teammate who has the ball is and then decide what kind of run should be made. We must know clearly whether the player has the ability to send a long pass or whether he dares to take risks to pass the ball."
On the other hand, Manchester United will travel to Athletic Bilbao in the first leg of the UEFA Europa League semi-finals, and this is the Red Devils' chance to fight for the championship and a place in Europe.
