Main reason why Jadon Sancho was absent in the Manchester United squad vs Fulham
When Man United beat Fulham 1-0 at Old Trafford in the Premier League, Jadon Sancho was not in the matchday 20 squad.
Some people thought Jadon Sancho might play against Fulham, but he wasn’t because he had an ear infection.
Sancho played his first competitive game for United in almost a year last week as a replacement in the Community Shield against Manchester City. However, he wasn’t in the team that beat Fulham 1-0 in the first Premier League game.
Erik ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, said that Sancho was healthy enough to play, but he chose to bring on Alejandro Garnacho, Joshua Zirkzee, and Antony as attacking replacements.
Ten Hag said, “First, we need depth in our squad.” “This season is battle to the death, but I can only pick 20 players for the team. I have to make decisions.”
“And Jadon last week had an ear infection and wasn’t fully healthy for this.” You could play him, but if you had to, I would have put other guys on the bench instead.
“That could change, and it will change during the season when we have to switch because we can’t play every game with the same people.” You can see how important subs are today; we need the right teams on the bench.
“Sometimes it’s frustrating for the player, but it’s for the team and the club. There will be other players in their shoes, but we expect them to fight for the firm.” There are a lot of games to play, so everyone will get a chance to show what they can do.
Fulham lost to United because Zirkzee scored on his debut in the 87th minute. After Zirkzee came on after 60 minutes, United missed three great chances. They had already played badly in the 1-1 draw with City and the 3-0 loss to Liverpool in South Carolina two weeks ago.
Ten Hag said again that United needs to be more clinical. “One space that we have to fill is to kill in the box, we saw it in the friendlies, we saw it last week against City, we create enough chances not to wait for a late winner,” he added.
“That means we could have been in the lead earlier.” We need to calm down and kill and execute people in front of the goal.
“It’s the start of the season, players have to come into full speed, we have enough players in the squad with scoring abilities and the most important thing is we created chances.”
