Facundo Pellistri will be hoping to capitalise on the ongoing situation concerning Man United's right wing options.
When Manchester United announce their starting line-up and bench for this weekend's clash with Brighton & Hove Albion at Old Trafford, all eyes will be searching for one name.
Since Sancho issued that aforementioned statement just before 8:30pm on Sunday 3, Ten Hag, because of the international break, has not spoken to the media since. It will be the main talking point when he sits down with the press pack later this week.Ten Hag, however, will almost certainly focus his energy on the clash with Brighton. Getting three points against the Seagulls will be the Dutchman's primary aim at the start of what will be a big week.
Sancho's situation remains a mystery, Antony is currently out of the equation, Amad is still sidelined through injury and Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford are more fruitful on the left. Taking all of those situations into account, the door has never been opened wider for Facundo Pellistri. United desperately need to generate positive headlines this weekend, and their best chance of doing so will be by securing a positive result, accompanied by a much-improved performance. Pellistri's positive style of play ought to give them the lift they're in need of.
Fernandes played out wide on several occasions last season, particularly against the big hitters, enabling United to beef up their midfield with an extra body and have more balance. Brighton, though they are one of the most eye-catching and best teams in the Premier League, are not in the same bracket as Liverpool or Manchester City.
