It was a goal that beat Fulham 2-1 on Sunday, meaning that United finish part one of the 2022-23 season in fifth, three points (and some goal difference) away from the Champions League places as top-flight club football pauses for a month to make room for the World Cup. “I am really happy with his progress,” United manager Erik ten Hag said of his Argentinian forward. “We have an extra player in the squad and I’m happy for the academy. The coaches; really well done, good work. Great but also, I want to emphasise the way we scored that goal: all the way from the back to the front, outplayed, composure and I think it was a massive, brilliant assist from • xG Garnacho’s match-winning impact is illustrated by the below touch map, which shows 21 minutes (including stoppage time) of attacking promise. The 18-year-old is not yet the finished product. He is predominately right-footed and his many stepovers are an attempt to misdirect and get separation between himself and a defender, rather than to open up an option to dribble to the left as well as the right. Garnacho is confident, ambitious, and looks to run at his defender with every opportunity he gets onto the ball. He is not the most talented wide player at Ten Hag’s disposal, nor is his present position likely to be the one that he eventually develops into playing. Yet Garnacho’s ability to force full-backs to backtrack and make difficult decisions makes him a valued additional weapon to his team’s attack. GO DEEPER The mor...

The 18-year-old forward has been named in Lionel Scaloni’s latest Albiceleste squad for upcoming friendlies against Australia and Indonesia. He was WHAT THEY SAID: Garnacho has told TyC Sports: “I don't need to play three games. I'm here and if I don't make my debut on the tour, it doesn't matter. I know I want to be with Argentina and it's going to happen. I want to make a career with the Argentine national team, if the coach trusts me I can keep coming. I want to be one more and take part in the Copa America, the qualifiers and the World Cup. I know that a lot of people in Argentina love me, appreciate me. I've already made the decision to play for Argentina, and I'm going to return that love on the pitch.” THE BIGGER PICTURE: Garnacho had been hoping to figure for Argentina at the recent U20 World Cup, but was

Fernandes says he has seen progress and maturity from Garnacho — who recently signed a contract extension up to 2028 — over the past 12 months, but impressed upon the youngster that he expects that progress to continue. “We know Garna can change games,” Fernandes said. “He plays with pace, he can take players one against one, but he’s still developing, so we don’t have to push too much on him. He can do great things, but in the future, he has to do much better than he is actually doing, because he has the capabilities to be even better. “Mentally he is being much better also and I think he understands what it takes to be a professional player. He is taking that and he is working a lot also in the gym with the coaches.He’s been doing amazingly for the first season he’s been playing in the Fernandes’ advice echoes the words of Garnacho sustained an ankle ligament injury at home to His late cameo against Wolves on Saturday, coming on in the 82nd minute and scoring in the 94th, was reward for his hard work in returning to fitness, says Fernandes, who assisted Garnacho’s goal. “We are really pleased for Garna, because it was a long time that he was out of competition,” Fernandes said. “Obviously, for a young player, it’s never easy. But he’s back, he scored a goal and I hope he can score much more until the end of the season.”
