Hoylond s struggle: Is the talent not fulfilled or the system mismatched?

When we look at the transfer market, sometimes a potential transaction fails, the chain reaction it brings often pushes a team to a very awkward and passive situation. Inter Milan has now officially given up the intention to introduce Manchester United center Rasmus Hoylund. This news can be said to have forced Manchester United and Hoylund himself to a corner with no way out.

Let's first objectively analyze Hoylund's performance at Manchester United last season. As a young center who is highly anticipated and worth a lot of money, he only scored 4 goals in the Premier League throughout the season, and this data is indeed difficult to satisfy. We can also see in the game that he seemed very struggling in his feelings in front of the goal, his first shot in handling the ball, and his physical confrontation with the Premier League defender.

However, we should also see that if a young player performs poorly, the problem does not lie entirely in himself. The overall environment and tactical support of the team are equally important. Last season, Manchester United's offense was very chaotic and there was no clear and stable style of play. Hoylund often falls into a state of isolation on the court. He does not receive enough support and lacks a partner who can share the pressure for him by his side. Putting all the pressure on a 22-year-old young man who has just arrived in the Premier League is an unreasonable and lack of planning.

Now, a more interesting situation has emerged. Inter Milan's withdrawal is equivalent to closing the "escape channel" for Hoylund to leave the team. On the transfer market, the centers they want to buy, such as Osmhen and Giokelez, have been taken first by other teams; the Mbemo they want to buy, and the price they want to buy, and the price they have been delayed with Brentford. This leads to the most likely result: that is, in the new season, Manchester United has to continue to use Hoylund at the No. 9 position.

This is a very reluctant but has to accept reality for both players and clubs. For Hoylund, after a failed season, he will face greater pressure from fans than ever before. He no longer has the excuse of being "young" and "need to adapt", and he has to score a goal. For head coach Amorin, his challenge is how to better play Hawylund's characteristics without new players and help him regain his confidence by adjusting his tactics. It can be said that Inter Milan's withdrawal has brought Manchester United and Hoylund into a "standoff" that has to solve the problem head-on, and the result will directly determine the team's performance in the new season and the future fate of the Danish striker.
