The Moroccan midfielder is currently poised to return to Fiorentina after his loan spell expires. However, Amrabat is attracting a lot of praise from some Man United supporters for that performance and here’s how they reacted.
Chellow B: “He has always been a boss in midfield, he just did get a run of games but today he kept the ball moving and also covered side to side very well allowing Kobbie to play further forward.”
Mac34: “Best game he has played thus far, big up him!”
The Pivot: “Why did it take ten haag so long to discover that he needed to start him!I liked his energy!”
Olumide: “Honestly think we should just play him in midfield for the remaining games. He’s never had a run of games in the team.”
UTDWicked: “I genuinely think Man United should reconsider keeping Amrabat as a squad player, we can sell the likes of Casemiro, MacTominay, Eriksen and so on. Apart from few mistakes he made in some games He’s shown us he can be of great use to this team when given a chance.”
Samuel Luckhurst: “This has been Amrabat’s best game by far for #mufc. Arsenal so nervy playing the day after City.”
