Another Fine Display from Scot McTominay Ensured A comfortable Manchester United Win Over Burnley
It was a final match day for 2021 for EPL and most teams were willing to end the year on a very high note, Chelsea and Liverpool had their stories and United were looking forward to look on after their drawn game at the ST James Park last Monday.
Rauf Rangnick made 6 changes both Defense, Midfield and Attack. Though I'm not a United but I must admit the team has really improved under this new coach. You can see the seriousness, cohesion, aggression in their games and today match against Burnley really displayed such qualities. I've always been a fan of player who shoot outside the 18yards box and no wonder Mctominay caught my eyes in the match. His shooting abilities has really improved quite well.
His goal was the first time since February and what a great strike to end goal draught.
Many have criticized him for the absence of flare in his games but mostly that is not what is needed to win games.
Honestly, having watched him today, he made me remembered the likes of Lampard, Steven Gerald and Paul Schools In their playing days.
He was exceptional today and no wonder he won the man of the match award.

I feel like Scot gets a lot of heat whenever Manchester United are underperforming. I am happy he gets to show his quality during certain games.
