Chris Sutton says he feels ‘really sorry’ for Rasmus Hojlund because the Manchester United striker ‘doesn’t have an understanding of how to score’ due to the lack of service he gets.

Hojlund is yet to find his feet at Old Trafford following his £72million move from Atalanta in the summer. While the Danish forward has netted five times in the Champions League, he is yet to break his duck in 12 Premier League games.

It’s torrid time in front of goal has been amplified because of United’s ongoing struggles and exit from the Champions League. And with a clash with arch-rivals Liverpool coming next on Sunday, it seems his goal drought may well continue.

Speaking on Thursday’s episode, Sutton gave his thoughts on what United can expect ahead of this weekend’s showdown on Merseyside.

‘If Liverpool have a bit of a vulnerability, I think it is defensively,’ Sutton said to Ladyman. ‘Manchester United can only win playing counter-attack. I don’t want to keep going back to Manchester United, but we watched Hojlund the other night. I felt really sorry for him.

‘I feel really sorry for him. He looks like a player that are a little bit low on confidence now, but I don’t think that he has an understanding of how he can score a goal at Manchester United because the wide players want the ball for themselves. 

‘Antony, the other night, never got his head up. Pass, follow, link-up – there aren’t combinations. And that’s a massive issue.

‘And then you look at what Liverpool have in their attacking armoury and they are slick, there’s a great understanding, they are dangerous. 

‘Manchester United’s hope is that they can hang on in the game, defensive rear-guard action and maybe counter.

‘A piece of individual brilliance, whether it is Hojlund at center forward with a ball over the top or whether it’s [Alejandro] Garnacho [off the wing].

‘I just don’t see it. You look in the midfield, [Sofyan] Amrabat is athletic but he’s not a great technician.

IT’S ALL KICKING OFF! 

It’s All Kicking Off is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football.

‘He’s not a holding midfielder who will get on the half-turn and start off incisive passing moves and patterns of play. He’s not that type of player. [Scott] McTominay’s not particularly slick on the ball, albeit he nicks a goal.

‘They are just cobbled together. They are muddled together. They don’t really have an identity. So you’ve asked me how Manchester United can win this game, they can only win this game by being slightly fortunate and hoping Liverpool have an off day. 

‘They cannot win this game as far as I’m concerned, based on performance.’
