to this day I can't really tell you if he is not good enough for United or if he just had one of the worst lucks with everything.

like it didn't seem like Ole had plans for him, or maybe he saw him as a backup to the guy who is literally never injured.

and when we could have used him like the latter part of 20/21 when Mctominay was out, he was out too.

then when we could have used him in the second half of 21/22 and he really could have fought for his place he was on loan at Everton.

and then he finally gets his old manager at United

he picks an injury right at the start of the season till the end of October, the WC is there so the season is interrupted so he can't get back into the team, then when he starts to pick up steam and getting minutes and working well with the team he gets a season ending injury, it was on 3rd of January...

Yeah, he’s had a very bad run of luck. I wish he would have had a real go, but it’s unfortunate.
