Sofyan Amrabat starred on his full debut for Manchester United.
The 27-year-old, who was replaced in the 61st minute as he nears full fitness, spoke to Sky Sports after the result and joked he would play as a goalkeeper for Ten Hag.
“I told the manager I will play where [he] needs me and where the team needs me, even if it is a goalkeeper!" He said.“I play where I can help the team, today it was left-back. I had a bit of a free role, I think you saw I played a bit in midfield, so it was nice, it was good.”“We played very well and, most importantly, we won 3-0. I played one hour, so I think it was perfect.
“Since I was a child I worked for this [moment]. I worked very hard for my whole career and life [for this], so it was amazing to play here.Amrabat could make his first start in the Premier League when Man United resume their campaign on Saturday against Palace.
