Manchester United boss, Ralf Rangnick, can’t wait to see his lads in action this coming match against Aston Villa.
Talking to the media, the 63 years old, Germany born, explain why he will play Alex Telles on the left-back in this coming match.
Rank Rangnick said that it’s hard for him to choose who to play and who to leave on the bench between Alex and Luke Shaw if both of them are fully fit.
In differentiating them, he said that Alex is a more offensive left-back just like Diogo Dalot, while Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw are defensive and offensive balance players.
“I’m more than happy to have two players like Luke and Alex for that position as a left-back,” Rank Rangnick.“The same is true for the right-back position with Diogo Dalot and Aaron Wan-Bissaka. We have, in each of those positions, two good players and depending on who is fully fit, fully fresh, do we need to rest somebody?“As with Luke, it’s the case right now he is suspended, so it’s important to have two players with a little bit of a different profile.“I think Alex is a little more of an offensive wing-back/full-back. The same is true of Diogo Dalot on the right-hand side.“The other two English full-backs are both defensively and offensively balanced players, so that gives the coach lots of options depending on which team you’re going to play.”
Alex Telles has featured in all four matches played so far, and he will be starting in the next match against Aston Villa since Luke is on suspension after he was booked five yellow cards in the last five matches he featured.
