Manchester United winger Daniel James is excited to have fans back to Old Trafford this season. United’s final preseason game against Everton was cheered by 55,000 fans at the theatre of dreams.
The fans were gifted a perfect win as United thrashed Everton with a 4-0 scoreline. James has expressed his happiness of seeing the fans cheering them with full strength.
As reported by the club’s official website, Daniel James said: “It’s absolutely brilliant coming out [to this crowd], we’re edging closer to the start of the season now and I’m sure next week will be ten times louder. It kind of became normal without fans and it was a bit weird but it’s nice. We kind of got a little taste of fans again at the Euros and now to have fans here cheering us on is brilliant. When we’re under it a bit, they’re still cheering for us, and for me, it just drives me forward.”
The most wonderful moment of the day was the goal from Bruno Fernandes. It was a magnificent free-kick and a perfect way to signal other teams that he is ready to score more goals this season.
James didn’t have his name on the scoresheet for Manchester United but was able to disturb the Everton defense with his pacy runs.
It was Mason Greenwood who opened the scoring and then soon Maguire scored a fine header from Luke Shaw’s inch-perfect corner. Bruno Fernandes scored the third and Diogo Dalot nailed the final nail in the coffin with a cheeky header.
