Manchester United manager has been able to show that he is ready to give certain chances to some of the young players on the team, and especially in the case of players like Garnacho, Hojlund and Mainoo that have been part of the starting line up several times now and if now they are an usual substitution for the manager in the past games of the season for the team.

"Manchester United must protect young trio" Ferdinand started, and the fact is that the legendary center back believes that right now they are being asked to do a lot of the work for the team and this heavy pressure could affect them, and this is something that he would like to change in the next part of the season to keep the young talent with the team for the next years.

Ferdinand added, “Hojlund, Garnacho and probably Mainoo will come into this category, they are playing too many games." in the case of Hojjlund this has been a concern for the office as well, and that is why it has been confirmed they are looking for an experienced striker but they have not been able to do just that now.

“Young players at their age need to be dipped in and dipped out. These boys are being asked to hold the fort and hold the torch.” Ferdinand ended, and in the case of Mainoo it seems that even with the return of Casemiro to the team he is still going to have a lot more playing time now that Ten Hag would like to see both players together.

Alejandro Garnacho role

Alejandro Garnacho asked for more playing time at the start of the season, and now he is part of the starting line up almost every single game, and while the argentinian winger has had some good games, the fact is that he might be looking to change that situation.
