After successfully qualifying for the FA Cup, Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp strode into the pitch and hugged a player from rivals Nottingham Forest. James Garner, United's new Carrick, has been on loan to the Forest this season and in a match against Liverpool, his straight plug nearly helped his teammate win a penalty.
In that game, Garner also repeatedly put down Liverpool players, talking and joking, and did not shy away from the stage at all. In addition to Klopp, he also conquered United legendary midfielder Roy Keane. 'He's had a really good midfield partnership with team-mate Ryan Yates, they're very complementary and Ghana are very good technically.' Keane said, "He likes to conduct games and is a little deeper than Yates. Today is bound to be a tough game for him, but it's also a good experience for young players and it's a great way to learn against top teams like Liverpool."
According to a survey, the highest rental players in the Premier League this season are Arsenal's £110 million, Tottenham Hotspur's 105 million are in second place, "Taxi" Chelsea is third with 104 million and Manchester United are in fourth place with 103 million. The Red Devils' rental players are expensive, mainly because of the presence of Martial and Van der Beek. But the most successful Manchester United loanee player has ghana.
Ghana has made 36 appearances in all competitions for Forest this season, scoring three goals and providing six assists. In particular, in the FA Cup, Ghana helped Nottingham Forest eliminate two Premier League teams Arsenal and Leicester City, and the Manchester United youngster made four appearances and delivered two assists. His assists came from set pieces, from free-kick assists to Huddersfield And assists to Leicester City corner kicks.
United's set-pieces this season have been a mess, so fans may feel it will help Ghana return to get a chance. Of course, the reality is not so simple and clear, and Bruno Fernandez and Tres in the Manchester United squad are also set-piece masters with high scoring rates in the past, indicating that the Red Devils' problem is not a stubborn disease that can be solved by one or two people.
But Ghana has been efficient since the youth team started scoring goals. In the last 10 games at Nottingham Forest, he has scored 2 goals and assisted 5 times. In United's under-23 youth team, he has excellent statistics of 10 goals and 2 assists in 17 games.
Born in Ghana on 13 March 2001, he is now 21 years old and has a good height of 186 cm. A season and a half of training in the Championship was enough to hone his physical confrontation ability and adapt him to the physical requirements of the Premier League. In the profile of the professional data website WhoScored, Ghana's strengths are: set-pieces, especially direct free kicks, key passes and defense, while his style is long-range shooting, frequent fouls and tackles.
There are already people who can't wait to label Ghana with the new nickname of "Nemanja Matic's successor", but all fans who hope that he will return to Manchester United and become the team's defensive midfielder can forget this idea. Although he has made a cameo centre-back in Manchester United's youth team, Garner is better at organising and attacking, acting as a defensive barrier in front of the back line, not his strongest qualities, of course, he is willing to invest in assisting the defense.
So if Ghana returns to Manchester United, he will be positioned as a midfield substitute, competing with McTomine and Fred for the No. 8 or No. 6 position, responsible for midfield organisation or firing from the back. Manchester United's new back can only be supplemented by reinforcements. Ghana can also play in the No. 10 position, but Manchester United have Bruno Fernandez, who can only play as a substitute, and the youth system also has forward players such as Hannibal Mejebry and Shola Shoratire.
Nottingham Forest is currently 9th in the Championship, but is only three points behind Blackburn in the play-offs and plays three rounds less. That means they have a chance to storm the Premier League and if they can be promoted, Forest wants to buy out Ghana and, if not, can loan him as a Premier League team.
From United's point of view, this summer there is an option to leave Ghana, who has been honing in the Championship for two years, to play as a midfielder rotation player. The new manager is also likely to rent Ghana out again to hone a season in the Premier League. If nottingham Forest is upgraded, of course, it is the best choice, the British "Sun" said that Leeds United and Southampton are also interested.
