Coming live from old Trafford, “with his performance against Fulham i now have doubts with what i saw i can’t depend on both Rashford and Sancho we have someone in mind who can step up”. It was a day to forget for the Red Devils’ English strikers, who were upstaged by the magical zirkzee who gave the winning goal. Man utd co-owner sir Jim plans deadline move to bring another Bayern Munich star to old Trafford. Man Utd wants bayern Munich star as club are in desperate need of a goalscorer after Marcus Rashford’s and attackers latest disasterclass.

It was a challenging day for Manchester United’s English forwards, overshadowed by the stellar performances of Alejandro Garnacho and Oscar Bobb.

Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford, who were expected to shine this season, faced immediate setbacks. After a mediocre pre-season, United exceeded expectations in the Community Shield against Manchester City. Despite their efforts, they lost after a late equalizer from Pep Guardiola’s side led to a 1-1 draw and a 7-6 penalty shootout loss.

Sancho became a focal point of criticism after missing a penalty during the shootout, continuing his woes with spot-kicks at Wembley. Rashford also faced scrutiny for missing two key opportunities during regular play.

Nevertheless, Erik ten Hag’s team displayed encouraging signs. Casemiro seemed more assured, and Garnacho continued his impressive run from last season, scoring a brilliant goal to give United the lead.

However, Ten Hag couldn’t replicate the success of last season’s FA Cup win. Bernardo Silva’s equalizer in the 89th minute, coupled with errors from Sancho and Jonny Evans, allowed Manchester City to secure the victory.

**WINNER: Alejandro Garnacho**

Garnacho thrives in high-stakes matches and enjoys playing at Wembley. After scoring in the FA Cup final, he broke the deadlock again with a moment of brilliance. Although he had earlier assisted Rashford, who hit the post, Garnacho skillfully maneuvered through City’s defense to score. He also confidently converted his penalty, although United didn’t secure the win.

**LOSER: Jadon Sancho**

Sancho seems to struggle at Wembley, having lost three of his four finals there and missing crucial penalties twice. While this loss might not sting as much as his Euro 2020 or Champions League final defeats, it was still disheartening. Benched until the 83rd minute, his missed penalty shifted the momentum to City, marking a frustrating start to his new chapter under Ten Hag.

**WINNER: Ederson**

Ederson’s presence was a pleasant surprise for City fans amid speculation about a summer transfer to Saudi Arabia. His performance in the shootout reinforced his importance to the team. He saved Sancho’s penalty and scored one himself, showcasing his unique skills and validating Guardiola’s decision to retain him.

**LOSER: Marcus Rashford**

Despite Ten Hag’s praise for Rashford’s pre-season form, he failed to make an impact in this crucial game. Rashford missed a chance after a promising team move in the first half and failed to convert a perfect setup from Bruno Fernandes and Garnacho, hitting the post instead. With Rasmus Hojlund sidelined for a month and Joshua Zirkzee still settling in, there’s increased pressure on Rashford. His performance underscored United’s need for a more clinical striker, creating a chance for other forwards to make their mark.
