Manchester United: New player Cunha s data is impressive as soon as he joined, making Garnacho dwarfed

New aid Mattus Cunha's debut at Manchester United was amazing, in stark contrast to Alejandro Garnacho, who had long performed mediocrely last season.

In the first round of the Premier League match on August 17, Manchester United lost to Arsenal 0-1 at Old Trafford, and suffered a black goal opening. Despite the team's defeat, coach Ruben Amorin's team still showed some positive signals. Arsenal took away three-pointers with Calfiori's goal, but the performance of several Manchester United new players, especially Cunha, has brought hope to fans.

On the back line, De Ligt performed well in the air confrontation, effectively limiting the performance of Arsenal striker Zhekelais. On the offensive end, the impact of Brian Mbeumo and Brazilian striker Cunia is impressive.

Cunha used his speed and direct breakthroughs to attack Arsenal's defense line many times, and once almost staged a long-distance raid to score. Data shows that he tried dribbling 4 times in his debut 6 times, making him one of the players with the highest success rate in this round of Premier League, and won 8 one-on-one matches in the confrontation.

Cunha's outstanding performance further highlighted Garnacho's sluggish last season. The Argentine star started 23 games for Manchester United last season, but averaged less than 1 game (only 0.7 times), with a success rate of only 32%, and rarely won in physical confrontation.

Despite high expectations, Garnacho's continued lack of efficiency has made the club management lose patience. The 21-year-old is currently actively pushing for a transfer to Chelsea, and the deal is expected to be completed in the near future. Cunia's strength has undoubtedly accelerated Garnacho's pace of departure.
