Ten Hag told to start this player ahead of Garnacho vs Brighton

Former Manchester United star, Paul Parker has sent a message to manager Erik ten Hag ahead of their game vs Brighton this weekend.

Parker advised the manager to start Facundo Pellistri ahead of Alejandro Garnacho on Saturday.

According to Parker, Pellistri is a workaholic, who makes something out of nothing.

Ten Hag will have a tough time picking his squad ahead of Man United’s home clash with Brighton at Old Trafford, with both Jadon Sancho and Antony not in his plans at the moment.

“I would go with Pellistri over Garnacho on the right wing. I think Garnacho has done well when coming off the bench but at this moment, I look at him as an impact player,” Parker told MyBettingSites.

“Pellistri got something about him. He has this willingness and desire to do really well.

“He makes something out of nothing and he is a workaholic.”

He added, “If he plays on the right wing in front of [Aaron] Wan Bissaka, I think Manchester United have a right-hand side of hard-working players who will do very well when they don’t have the ball.”

Pellistri moved to Old Trafford from Penarol for close to £9 million in 2020.
