Manchester United understand that zero is worth more than £ 108 million | Israel today

The Red Devils are building on Jadon Sancho for the very long run, but can not get the lame start of the dear winger • Meanwhile, Mason Greenwood is doing the job at no cost


The start of Manchester United's season in the Premier League is satisfactory.

She is one of the top three with 13 points (along with Liverpool and Chelsea), dropping just two points and flourishing with the return of Cristiano Ronaldo, who looks like the missing and deadly link in Ola Gunnar Solskjaer's plans.

However, the Norwegian manager has a number of issues he has to deal with, to avoid mishaps like the one the team experienced in the Champions League opener (the loss to Swiss side Young Boys) and the early relegation from the English League Cup yesterday by West Ham (1: 0). 

In his diplomatic way, Solskjaer criticizes only indirect and gentle, including French striker Anthony Martial, about whom he said: "You can not just blame him for the loss. He looks like the rest of his teammates. He knows what we expect from him."

However, the real problem, about which Solchiar does not like to talk, lies in the front right wing position.

United last night landed Jadon Sancho from Dortmund for £ 108 million and meanwhile is not getting any output from him.

True, this is a very early stage on his way to Old Trafford, but the 21.5-year-old has returned to England from Germany with experience and receipts, and the club admit that the start is quite lame and he needs to shift gears soon.

He has already received a signal of this from Solskjaer, who is considering placing him as a winger on the left side, as the other option is for his bench.

The £ 108m bench sounds like an unwise decision not to be understood by all parties, so the option to replace the wings may become immediate immediately, because for a slightly lower amount - £ 10 to be exact - the Norwegian already has Mason Greenwood on the right wing.

Next week Greenwood will celebrate his 20th birthday, and after successfully climbing out of the club academy and finally taking his place in the squad, he is the only one for whom it is his natural role and he fills it on the best side.

Greenwood was filled with apprehension in the face of the monstrous acquisition United made this summer.

He seemed to be on his way to being pushed to the bench, perhaps even to the edge, and to find himself acting in an emergency only.

In practice, he proved to be a winner, demonstrating excellent ability in all league games, in which he played 428 minutes out of 450 and contributed three goals - two of which were equal to the team four out of 13 points. 

True, Sancho should not be mourned so quickly, Solskjaer talks about being a key link at Manchester United for the next 10-12 years, but that does not mean he should not look over his shoulder.

Greenwood is already there.
