Before against Lyon, Rasmus Hojlund took the words directly through the mouth of Manchester United: why can’t he score goals?
“I sit myself and look at my game to see what I can do better,” Hojlund told Denmark’s equivalent of Disney +, according to Bergens Tidend, when asked for his sterile race.
“I also stand somewhere and I think,” Why hell I can’t score? ” Where is it okay? ».
These are two questions that no one may seem to understand – and time is exhausted to find an answer.
The nightmare display of Hojlund in Lyon, which saw the French newspaper EIM assess it as the worst player on the field with a year 2/10, even worse than his teammate Andre Onana, characterized the crossroads in which he is in his career.

Ruben Amorim must persist with the young dane due to a lack of attacker alternatives
The 22 -year -old man withers under the spotlight. It regresses, if the truth is said. If you want to be a little nicer, you could say that it is stopped and does not progress.
Only 11 keys in its name from 63 minutes of action – and a target shot – underlines how a Hojlund role is peripheral in this united anemic attack.
It is also an important distinction. This side is anemic when it attacks. Apart from Bruno Fernandes, the threat of authentic goal is little or little.
But the team said it better.
“Rasmus Hojlund (2) has contributed absolutely nothing to his team,” they wrote. “It was easily closed by the defense of Lyon.
Easily. They had to barely get out of first speed to keep it silent.
Fifteen keys against Manchester City, zero blows. Sixteen keys in 45 minutes against Nottingham Forest, a blow. Lots of Hojlund performs all mix in an unforgettable episode.
His white in the south of France is only one goal – against a team of Leicester City which is one of the worst in the history of the Premier League – of its last 25 united appearances in all competitions.

His confidence has been drawn again and he looks like a long road to find the superior shape
The interest of loans in Hojlund this summer could be a disguised blessing for players and the club
“I’m not the type to lie down and abandon myself,” he said in this Disney +cat.
“This is also why I played and started in these matches (during the drought of 21 games). This is because I continued to work for the team and on my own game.
There are large fans base pockets that are ready to reduce their losses on Hojlund with a movement for an attacker, Liam Delap, potentially Ipswich, aligned for summer.
But the next more appropriate movement can be released from the Amad Diallo and Diogo Dalot game book – a loan move to keep your game away from the lively lights of Manchester United.
Initially, there would be a meticulous examination, the first two games without any doubt. But Antony thrives with real Betis now. Very few fans keep an eye on the progression of Tyrell Malacia at the PSV Eindhoven. Attention on Marcus Rashford, although high, is not as intense in Aston Villa as before in United.
Amad can testify to the advantages of a loan, the same goes for Dalot, if he is wrong on the side of staying and getting out of this storm.
Amad tasted the team’s first action after joining Atalanta before loans were sanctioned to the Rangers – which did not go too well – and Sunderland, where he finished as top scorer of the 2022-23 season. He returned to United as much better player.
“I think it will help me a lot for next year,” said Amad in 2023 of his time in Sunderland.

Hojlund’s Man united career should not be over – but it has to get out of the spotlight
“It helped me mature, and I also grew up, mental level, and I think I have the capacity to show next season.”
Dalot is also a good example, after having transformed his career with a detachment of a season at AC Milan.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka arrived and having fallen into the hierarchical order, Dalot went to Italy on loan in a moment do-gold for his prospects in United. Like Amad, it was a bet that paid far from the brilliant spotlight to Old Trafford.
“It was perfect,” said Dalot before about his Milan loan. “I met very good people in the club, very good people from the city and it was fantastic.
“The chance to play in another fantastic league brought me very good things, not only for football but also for my life.”
With speculations intensifying the future of Hojlund and loan interests accumulating in Italy, Hojlund could make worse than exploring the fact of taking a step back to take steps again for United.
Currently, the trusted urination he has won with goals against Leicester City and against Portugal during his absence with Denmark has long disappeared.
“(Amorim) told me today not to think too much about the guys behind me and to try to work a little more about what was in front of me, being very aggressive towards the goal,” said Dane in November after a splint against Bodo / Glimt.
He has been backwards since then and if he made a loan from the purpose of trying to go through the storm, probably more harm than his prospects for wearing the Manchester United shirt for too long.
