– Food for debut. Makan until the first minutes of his performance. What a moment for Zirkzee, says Viaplay expert Tor Ole Skullerud. Manchester United’s 100th season in the English top division looked set to end in a disappointing draw. But just before the end, new signing for the home team Joshua Zirkzee appeared and poked the ball with his toe into the far corner. – What a big moment for him. His first game in the Premier League, and then he scores the winning goal, says Gary Neville at SkySports. – They are on the right track Joshua Zirkzee (23) arrived at Manchester United from Italian Bologna in mid-July. Zirkzee had not played a minute for the Manchester club until he came on in the 60th minute. – It is almost perfect. It is deserved. And they show so much in the first half that they have closed up again at the back, so I think they are on the right track, even if it is early, says Viaplay expert Lars Tjærnås after the match. – It is embarrassing to watch Just before half-time, centre-back Harry Maguire receives a yellow card for filming when he falls inside the Fulham penalty area. That made several people in Viaplay’s studio react. – Here there is a large brick wall of an English centre-back going down. It’s embarrassing to watch. I don’t think so. Imagine the headlines if it had been Luis Suárez or a slightly exotic attacking player. said Pål André Helland in the studio during the break. – If you’re going to be an actor first, then you can’t be a Norwegian b-actor in the 50s. Then you have to do better than that, added Lars Tjernås. Former United player and now Sky Sport expert Gary Neville didn’t like it either. – Watching Harry Maguire film is a bit embarrassing. He throws himself on the ground Photo: Reuters Got renewed confidence Erik ten Hag was hired as manager before the 22/23 season. The first two seasons have been anything but a bed of roses for the Dutchman. He came in a strong 3rd place in his first season in the Premier League and won the League Cup. Last season they finished eighth in the Premier League table. It is the club’s worst position in Premier League history. Just before the FA Cup final, several British media claimed that ten Hag’s job was in danger and that he would be done with the club regardless of the outcome. United beat city rival Manchester City 2–1 and at the beginning of July came the counter-notice. Manchester United could confirm that the Dutchman had extended his contract until the 2026 season.
