Kobbie Mainoo injury question highlights Manchester United’s midfield problem
13.10.2023 - 04:43 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
A behind-closed-doors friendly against Barnsley in international week is unlikely to provide too many solutions for misfiring Manchester United.
The Reds won 3-0 this week but the talk was as much about a player who ultimately didn't feature as it was anything else. Kobbie Mainoo was slated to start but United's coaching team deemed it best not to press the midfielder into action as he recovers from injury.
The 18-year-old has been anointed for first-team duty and Erik ten Hag is a huge fan of the talented teenager. His absence so far this season has, if anything, seen his stock rise such has been United's midfield predicament. And while no-one is expecting Mainoo to ride into the side and carry that burden by himself, there is a growing sense that the local lad can play a pivotal role.

To some extent that highlights the issues United are facing. Mainoo is a fine prospect and has the credentials and capabilities to play at the top level. But he's had just 10 minutes of Premier League football and not even 90 minutes of senior football.
United are in need of a spark and a player like Mainoo, fresh from the Academy, has the potential to provide it - just as Adnan Januzaj, Federico Macheda and Marcus Rashford have before him. It's a United tale that runs through the club's history and Erik ten Hag wants to keep that theme running.
Ten Hag identified him as a potential first-team player from his arrival at United. The manager wants to push youngsters into the side, as was the case at his former club Ajax - another side steeped in the tradition of youth
