‘It depends’: Sabitzer hints at his best role after playing in three positions for Man United

Speaking to Premier League Productions about his personal best role at Man United, Marcel Sabitzer said: “I think I can play [as a] six, as an eight, [and] as a ten. I played it here - I started as a six when Casemiro was suspended.

“I had to adapt quickly and I think I did quite well. And yeah, in a few matches I played like an eight, like a ten. I try to help the team in the best way I can and I think I did it. So yeah, it's no problem for me.

“I cannot say 100 per cent [which is my favourite] because I played a lot of positions in my whole career and I cannot say I'm enjoying it the most as the number ten. So it depends on the game.

“Sometimes, you have a good game and you're better there in the number ten position. But I think I can feel the connection with the offensive players here with the front three and yeah, I have good movements, good ability, good runs behind, and I think I can help on this position in the team. I'm happy wherever the manager puts me in.”

Sabitzer has proven himself as a very versatile player for Erik ten Hag since arriving from Bayern Munich on loan in January. He’s scored three goals in17 appearances for the Red Devils so far and could be signed permanently in the summer.
