Kobbie Mainoo, a wonderkid for Manchester United, contributed significantly to the club’s 3-0 Premier League victory over Everton on Sunday.

Early in the preseason, the 18-year-old was phenomenally impressive for the Red Devils; however, against Real Madrid, he incurred a freak knee injury.

Because of the absences during the initial months of the season, he has been afforded an opportunity to shine subsequent to the injuries sustained by Casemiro, Christian Eriksen, and Mason Mount.

In his first complete league appearance, the teenager was exceptional in the starting lineup against the Toffees, replacing Sofyan Amrabat at number six.Man United's Kobbie Mainoo provides an outstanding performance in his Premier League debut.

Mainoo completed 57 passes with an 83% passing accuracy. He was effective with two interceptions, one crucial shot on goal blocked, and one crucial clearance off the line from within his own area.

Additionally, the graduate of Manchester United won five ground and aerial duels and two take-ons. A remarkable performance from a player who had not participated in senior football since the preseason.

Throughout the preseason, the teenager was among United’s brightest spots. As a result of his emergence, there were rumors that United might not pursue another midfielder.

Nonetheless, his knee injury assisted United in acquiring Amrabat on loan.

The Moroccan was initially regarded as a possible Casemiro rival and backup, but his performances have been inconsistent thus far in the season.

United will face Galatasaray in the Champions division, and the youngster should be favored to maintain his starting position after a stellar debut in the division.

At Everton, he was substituted for Amrabat in the 73rd minute, which indicates that manager Erik ten Hag is once again inclined to utilize him in the holding midfield role.

We believe Mainoo is capable of individualizing the position. Casemiro’s injury presents him with a remarkable opportunity to solidify his position as a United starting lineup member.
