Percy Tau flew to Manchester with his Belgium side Club Brugge on Wednesday but whether he gets play against Manchester United at Old Trafford on Thursday remains to be seen.
His chances will have been enhanced by Brugge's decision to leave behind top striker Emmanuel Denis‚ who scored in the first leg of the Uefa Europa League last 16 tie in Belgium last Thursday but picked up an injury at the weekend.Tau had not featured in the starting line-up for four matches before Brugge coach Philippe Clement went for the surprise element and stuck the Bafana Bafana striker into the starting line-up last Thursday.
Tau’ is short on game time in recent weeks but his ability to conjour up something special‚ together with Denis’ absence‚ means the coach must be thinking again about starting the South African. Tau could take inspiration from Benni McCarthy‚ who in 2004 helped FC Porto eliminate the Red Devils in the Champions League.
