Rasmus Hojlund has not been particularly prolific lately, having scored only once in two months after returning to contention following a muscle injury back in March.
Pundit Danny Murphy wrote in the Daily Mail: “I’m dubious about whether Rasmus Hojlund is the world-class No 9 United need.
“There is nothing in his game that scares defenders. I contrast him to Liverpool’s Darwin Nunez, who is erratic but will do a mad bit of skill or make an aggressive dash to cause some problems for defenders.
“Hojlund is not quick, skilful or clever enough for that ‘Wow’ factor. He’s 21 and has time to develop. But right now, he is not a Champions League or Premier League-winning No 9.”
The Liverpool forward has become notorious for his comical misses. However, his record is not that bad — 11 goals and 8 assists in 34 league games so far this season. Hojlund is currently on 8 goals and 2 assists in 27 Prem appearances for Man United.
