I highlight the front line because they don't have a centre-forward and so far have place Marcus Rasford and Anthony Martial ineffective and even though Anthony Martial is a centre-forward however his performance was below the level required by Manchester United. On the other hand, we may also see that in the previous three matches the performance of the midfield and defenders has also been inconsistent so far, so Ten Hak must immediately find a solution to this problem.
They still have high hopes for Hojlund it seems because seeing from the current situation with the end of this summer transfer and they are still not looking for other options, the possibility of waiting for Hojlund until he is completely recovered from injury is Manchester United's last hope.
Martial is one of the players who is currently on the sell list from Manchester United and Rashford we know that he is only an option because he is not a pure striker so indeed only Hojlund is currently Manchester United's hope.
To be honest this is like gambling because it is like making a bet on a young striker but they will definitely continue to try this at least to see how Hojlund plays later as if he is not up to expectations then Ten Hag will likely look for new alternatives in the winter.
