On January 11, Beijing time, in the third round of the FA Cup, Manchester United eliminated Aston Villa 1-0 at home. Former Manchester United player Dong Fangzhuo explained that with the Red Devils' current squad, he can also enter the rotation!
As a Manchester United star, Dong Fangzhuo only made three appearances for the first team that year, and did not score a goal: 1 game each in the Premier League, Champions League and League Cup, and did not play in the FA Cup. And now in this group of Red Devils players, only Ronaldo and Tom Heaton have ever been his teammates.
Unfortunately, Ronaldo did not make the squad for this game, with Cavani, Rashford and Greenwood starting, and Heaton as the substitute goalkeeper. However, the performance of the two Manchester United "princes" was disappointing, especially the former, with too many balls, too many goals conceded, completely out of shape.
Scott McTominay opened the scoring in the 8th minute, but Aston Villa's attack was also fierce, giving him multiple chances. In this regard, Dong Fangzhuo commented: "Manchester United's squad, I think I can also be rescued, can play the rotation. He also joked: "Or should I lose weight, make a comeback, and rescue again?" ”
For Master La, Dong Fangzhuo was speechless: "Rashford kicked like this, I can do it." Let the 10th come out, let's not grab the 7th, take the 10th. There were too many mistakes in the whole game, back-to-back, frontal, completely touched by the opponent. ”
For Greenwood, who likes to shoot inside, Dong Fangzhuo said: "The whole world knows your move, but you are not Robben, you have to recognize the reality." ”
When Dong Fangzhuo was at Manchester United, there were young C Ronaldo and Rooney, mesozoic Saha, veteran Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Larson, who had strength and experience, and indeed fierce competition, and it was difficult for him to get out. However, with the talent of "King Dong" at that time, if it is placed in the present, competing with Rashford and Greenwood, it may not be without a chance, right?
