FPL Growth

I don’t like being harsh, but Rasmus Højlund is a serious problem for United right now. Every game feels like we’re playing with 10 men. When he gets the ball, he gives it away. He's becoming a passenger in attack — even teammates look hesitant to give him the ball. At some point, you have to be honest. He showed promise in his first season, and confidence is clearly an issue, but right now he can’t hold the ball, can’t pass, can’t use his body properly, and isn’t making the right runs. Even the half chances he gets, he’s not taking. We’ve been decent in a lot of games this season but haven’t won — and that’s what happens when you don’t have a functioning no. 9. We’re in the top half for expected points, but if your striker’s invisible, you can’t convert better performances into results. He has no chance against someone like Romero or Van de Ven. Honestly, I’d seriously consider starting Mainoo as a false 9 at this point.
