Man United suffered a third Premier League defeat of the season on Saturday but Hojlund looked sharp
Andy Cole insists Rasmus Hojlund's work-rate will keep him in Manchester United fans' good books and hopes to see him in the goals soon.
“He’s got loads of energy, he’s youthful, he obviously still a bit raw but he will always aim to challenge the centre-backs," Cole told Betfred. "When I was at Newcastle United, Kevin Keegan used to say that David Kelly, who I played with, would chase a piece of paper and that’s what Rasmus does and he works really hard for his team.
Hojlund's start to life in Manchester has been a rare positive in an otherwise underwhelming start to the season. United have now lost three of their opening five Premier League matches, leaving them in 13th. "The same goes for Lisandro Martínez. Lisandro was excellent last season but now we’re in a new season, so whatever respect people had for you in the previous campaign is gone now because you need to prove that you can perform in your second year at the club and show that you’re consistent.
