Manchester United returned to winning ways as they scored 4 past the Norwich side at Old Trafford.
Daniel Farke’s side needed revival when they travel to Old Trafford to face Ole Gunnar Solskjaer men who are not looking convincing of late.
Despite injury concerns and poor run of form from the United’s part, they were victorious against Norwich as they come within touching distance with Chelsea on the standings just five points adrift.
With the 4-0 win for the Red Devils, we evaluate the three possible lessons from Old Trafford.
1. Rashford Leading The Chase
Manchester United produced some eye catching display thanks to the influx of Juan Mata & Mason Greenwood who were all impressive in the game.
However, it was Rashford that took the center stage in the game as he lead his side to a 4-0 win. This was key for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s season as Rashford’s brace set the tone for his sides victory.
This ensured that the Red Devils remain in an optimistic position in catching up with Chelsea irrespective of Frank Lampard’s 3-0 victory over the visiting Burnley side at home.
2. Greenwood Continues His Statement
The talented youngster was on the spotlight once again as his performance was positive all over the pitch.
He followed his superlative showing against Manchester City with a goal as he impressed with a goal of his own.
The Red Devils would be delighted with his match dealings along with his player development as he continues to make a statement for squad selection at the club while also catching the eye of England boss Gareth Southgate ahead of EURO 2020.
3. Norwich City In the Danger Zone
The result was a dismal one in all regards from the visitors as they conceded more like a Championship team like they may well be (come) at the end of the season following their position (bottom-placed) in the
Premier League.
They were nowhere a match for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men as the likes of Juan Mata, Mason Greenwood and Anthony Martial dealt a blow to their underwhelming campaign in the Premier League.
This result may likely suggest that Daniel Farke and Teeemu Pukki’s team will settle for relegation at the end as their performance was below the required standard for a Premier League side.
