As good as Onana: £38m star was United’s 2nd best player vs Tottenham, he played for the badge – opinion | OneFootball

Manchester United suffered a disappointing 3-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on Sunday.

The Red Devils conceded the opening goal in the third minute after poor piece of defending from multiple players.

Bruno Fernandes was sent off before the half-time interval and Spurs ended up with a resounding 3-0 win at Old Trafford.

Rio Ferdinand singled out Andre Onana for praise after the game. The goalkeeper made seven key saves against Spurs.

In our opinion, Alejandro Garnacho was the second best player for United after a tireless hardworking performance.

The Argentine got the nod over Amad Diallo in the starting line-up and he almost scored a first-half equaliser for United.

Garnacho unleashed a powerful strike from a narrow angle, but he was unfortunate as his effort rattled the woodwork.

In the second half, the £38 million-rated star caught the eye with his willingness to track back and also made good attacking runs.

It did not change the result, but the United graduate should hold his head high after a good and tireless showing on Sunday.

Overall, Garnacho had four attempts on goal with three duels won. He had 50 touches with two recoveries and one tackle.

With yesterday’s result, United have dropped to 12th in the league standings and they have picked up only seven points so far.

The Red Devils are already six points adrift of the top four and face another difficult challenge at Aston Villa this weekend.

Prior to that, the club have another challenging trip to Porto in the Europa League on Thursday night.

Erik ten Hag will surely make changes to the XI and Diogo Dalot could be one of those dropped after a dismal performance.
