Manchester United boss Ole Gunner Solskjaer says that the for Ajax player Donny Van De Beek will get the chance as the Reds wait to play against Watford in the FA cup third round.
Many questions have pop up in recent month when the midfielder have gotten the chance in Ole’s starting eleven.
Ronald de Boer, the twin brother of Netherlands’ national team head coach Frank de Boer, has stated that the Reds no. 34 needs to play more games, but Ole responded to those comments and states how important the Dutch is in the squad.
“I’ve answered this question so many times,” The Norwegian stressed.
“There are so many examples of players needing a little bit of time – quality players. We have many players ourselves and there are other clubs with examples. Sometimes it takes time. You don’t expect people who care for him to be quiet at times, especially when they want the best for them.
“Donny is going to play tomorrow. There’s another chance for him. Yes, I’ve spoken to him and reiterated and made him aware how much we rate him. But he’ll play tomorrow, and that’s a good chance to kick on.”
The Reds Manager was asked about the academy graduate Brandon Williams who haven’t gotten enough chance since the signing of Alex Telles and the manager said.
“With the signing of Alex Telles and the form of Luke Shaw, he’s not really had a look in at left-back this season, Brandon,” Ole explained.
“He played last season… I think he played in all three semis, in the semi-final of the Europa League, FA Cup, in the Carabao Cup, and he’s had a great rise, a great first season. This season’s been more difficult for him.”
Ole is impressed by with the academy graduate’s work ethic and the desire to get into the starting lineup despite not getting enough playing time.
“I think he’s put his head down, worked really hard lately. He will be involved tomorrow. He’s in the squad. And he’s shown me that he’s got the desire to fight through this. That’s the biggest thing, you know?
“When you find your first big contract, you do well, can you bounce back after not being in the team as much? And Brandon has showed that lately, so hopefully he’ll just keep carrying on as he does. He knows my view on it. He knows my view on him, and we believe in the boy.”
