ENERGY: Youngster’s Man Utd Hannibal Mejbri created a performance that make McTominay to shame

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag praised Hannibal Mejbri after he handed him his first start for the club in the 1-0 win over Burnley on Saturday evening.

Unlike McTominay’s lack of responsibility, the Tunisian international worked his socks off throughout the 90 minutes and ten Hag singled him out for doing a “perfect job” at Turf Moor.

Fans on Twitter were equally enthusiastic about Mejbri’s performance, with some hoping that he keeps his place for the doubleheader coming up against Crystal Palace:

The first person say: “Will start next game for sure”

“He’s provided the manager with a good headache. I’m sure we will see him start the next game.” – The second person

The third person add: “Yes. He was a box to box midfielder. Was everywhere and never looked like slowing. Put a great shift and I won’t be surprised if he starts again next weekend vs Palace”

“Brought the energy and was very good” – Another person says

While Ten Hag acknowledged that injuries were a major factor in his decision to select Mejbri, the 20-year-old was unmistakably motivated to make a mark.

The midfielder, who had the option of leaving Old Trafford before the transfer market closed at the beginning of this month, has made an incredible turnaround.

Mejbri was reportedly wanted on loan by Sevilla, but ten Hag’s last-minute intervention prevented him from leaving Manchester.
