When Manchester United signed the young striker I was not that comfortable with the signing not because the striker is not good enough, it is because he is young compared to the amount of money that he was signed with. Those kind of big signing is best for strikers that have played in the English Premier League.
Why who Hojlund is yet to adapt to the English Premier League pattern is because some players like Rashford has refused to help him get a goal, even Bruno Fernandes was supposed to have given him an assist to get a goal in the English Premier League. The young striker is not bad he has the champions league by scoring goals. Yet he is yet to replicate same in the English Premier League. He need the help of the squad as they do to Halland inManchester City
I think Manchester United were too hasty in signing Rasmus Højlund from Atalanta, especially as he only had 1 season there with 9 goals and 2 assists in 32 appearances in Serie A. Of course Ten Hag is aware of the talent Rasmus Højlund has as a center forward and he can be developed and become one of the best. However, the problem is, the high level of egoism of other Manchester United players has made it difficult for Rasmus Højlund to find himself in the Premier League.
Rasmus Højlund has so far scored 5 goals in 4 appearances in the Champions League with Manchester United. He hasn't scored a single goal in his 9 Premier League appearances, but if he really gets the support then I'm sure his performance this season will be very good. Just like Haaland, Rasmus Højlund just needs full support to help Manchester United get more goals.
Rasmus would come around I believe. It's just that he needs to adapt to the premier league style of play and understand that the league is way different from the Atalanta league he was signed from.
Unlike Harry McGuire of whom the media brought so much sentiments on, he is currently even doing better and has helped the Manchester United defense and team in winning some of their matches.
