United are on the verge of losing some key players this upcoming transfer window with Edison Cavani, Juan Mata and Lingard not keen on renewing their contract. With Van de Beek already on loan it has highly boosted his morale. United are on the verge of getting a new manager in the next season and the Erik Ten Hag is very likely to take over the job.
This decision will not only be beneficial for the team but also for Donny Van De Beek in particular. That 2018 Ajax team has shocked the world. From being the underdogs of the competition to go on beating Juventus and Real Madrid in the knockout stages. The footballing universe witnessed one of the greatest teams of all time. Van De Beek played a major role in these games.
Ten Hag and Donny Van De Beek’s reunion is very likely to happen this season. Donny Van De Beek has always been a starter for the teams he has played for. Unfortunately, Manchester United was an exception. Donny is not the kind of player who warms the bench. Rather a kind of player who plays full ninety minutes of football and tries to make an instant impact with his gameplay.
Van De Beek’s decision to leave on loan was the right call for him and the team as well. With Everton, he’s been getting the game time which he deserves more than anyone and most importantly getting an experience of how a full ninety minutes game in the Premier League feels like.
With a new manager taking over the job and according to many reports, Paul Pogba is on the verge of leaving the United side and it seems very likely that Van De Beek could become the first option to be a regular starter for the team. How poetic it was when he wasn’t getting any game time under Ole’s reign and he came on as a substitute for the Red Devils side and scored the last goal of the “Ole Era”.
Let’s take a look at how United could lineup if Ten Hag joins and Van De Beek gets the green light- (4-3-3)
Let’s not forget that he even scored on his Premier League debut against Crystal Palace where he again came on as a substitute and prevented United from getting humiliated by the dominant away side. He played a huge hand in the hosts’(Everton) opener, with his dangerous cross being cut out only as far as Seamus Coleman, who headed in to give the Toffees the lead inside the opening 10 minutes of the game.
United are also negotiating a 5 year deal with Bruno Fernandes who is very likely to take the offer. However, as things stand, Van De Beek and Bruno Fernandes link-up is going to be a lethal one. Both are exceptionally talented players and have a good insight of how to cope up in tough situations. United fans are eager to watch the Dutchman make his mark in that Red shirt.
Lampard after his winning his first game in-charge of the Toffees said that, “I thought Donny Van de Beek was great. To play like that at home – his calmness, work rate and intelligence was great”. These instances just sums up that how crucial he is to a team he plays for. This was the same situation in Ajax as well.
