DBasia.news – Richard Keys was critical of Wout Weghorst. According to him, it was like Wout Weghorst made The Red Devils appear with only 10 players.
Wout Weghorst has scored just one goal in 10 appearances since joining from Burnley on loan in the middle of the season.
Regardless, Wout Weghorst continues to earn a number of praise for his work ethic and passion. He also performed well when asked to play as a number 10 striker.
When Wout Weghorst played, Man United won five of the last seven matches. Now Man United are only five points behind the standings, Arsenal.
However, not all parties were happy with Wout Weghorst’s performance. Keys being one of them.
“You’re playing with almost 10 players a week when he’s playing. I mean he’s not doing enough to start. Come on, let’s be honest!” Keys insisted on beIN SPORTS.
Keys’ comments invited Marcus Rashford to speak up. He defended his partner.
“He had a big role. He also played out of position,” said Rashford after scoring two goals against Leicester City.
“He gives 100%. He’s there to create chances. That’s the main thing. The most important thing for a striker is to get chances and then it’s up to you to take them.”
“I’m sure if we keep creating chances for him he’ll score goals,” added Marcus Rashford.
