Fred has impressed one and all with his lively performance in his debut Premier League game. Not only he has impressed the fans but also caught up the eyes of his team mates, with his effortless skills and tackles. Appreciating his skills, Manchester United Alexis Sanchez said,”He has been with us for a short time, but you can already see that he is a player who wants to win, who wants to achieve things. He went to the World Cup and he is going to be an important addition to the team.”
On his first day at Old Trafford, former Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder received a standing ovation from the spectators while being substituted in the last 15 minutes. The trio of Pogba, Fred and Pereira constituted the mid-field of Manchester and both his partners complimented him on his way of play. “Fred came in and, for his first game, did great,” said Pogba after Friday’s victory.
“It’s his first game and you know you have to adapt. It’s not easy. He’s done a great job in the win.”
His fellow team mate Pereira who was also playing his first league match said: “Fred is a very good player and I am very happy for him. He played very well.”
All eyes will be on Fred in the upcoming away match against Brighton & Hove Albion. The Brazilian has a plenty to offer and can be one among Mourinho’s starting XI if he continuous to impress the Manager and the club with his artistry.
