Four right-sided forwards could be unavailable for Man United against Brighton. Facundo Pellistri has to start.
When Facundo Pellistri was mentioned during a press conference at Carrington last season, a journalist in the background could be seen turning to his colleague and asking, "Who?"
There have been pre-season goals from Derby to Dublin, via Bangkok. Whenever Pellistri appears for United, he tends to make things happen.A likeable lad with an unfussy haircut and an excellent speaker, it is easy to warm to Pellistri. He has exuded warmth in the two mixed zones he has stopped in, both after starts.
Though many would have had him in the line-up against Nottingham Forest three weeks ago. Continued chatter over a possible loan as deadline day loomed baffled plenty of United punters and come the final week of the transfer window Pellistri's immediate future was not as topical. In Pervis Estupiñán, Brighton have one of the most consistent and proactive left-backs on the continent; a steal at £14.9million from Villarreal. Pellistri is a more disciplined runner in the opposite direction to shadow Estupiñán than the more maverick Alejandro Garnacho, a modern left-sided winger.
Hojlund is a focal point who would benefit from being flanked by a winger whose edict is to shift the ball and cross it. Hojlund showed against William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhães he is a physical match and he will need that mettle against man-mountains Lewis Dunk and Jan Paul van Hecke.
