Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has called up one of Manchester United’s highly-rated youngsters for today’s Premier League trip to Huddersfield.United have a host of injuries yet again and Tahith Chong is in line to feature against the Terriers.
3Basic details
Name:Tahith ChongDate of birth:December 4, 1999 (age 19)Height:1.85mPosition:WingerClub: Manchester United (1 app / 0 goals)National team: Netherlands Under-21s (1 app / 0 goals)Who is Tahith Chong?
Chong is a 19-year-old forward who plays for Manchester United, having joined from Feyenoord in the summer of 2016. He immediately started representing United’s Under-18s but had his season cut short when he suffered a cruciate injury in January 2017.
3Style of play
A left-footed wide player, Chong started his United career as a proper throwback winger; he loved to show off his pace and trickery as he got up and down the flank, creating goals for others as well as scoring them himself. His explosive style of play makes him incredibly hard to deal with, and it is something of a shock to see a player so tall and skinny move so quickly across the ground.Chong has primarily moved out onto the right flank for United’s Under-23s and he caught the eye in that position during the senior side’s pre-season tour of the US. While he still hugs the touchline in the manner of a classic winger, Chong also looks to cut inside and put the ball on his stronger left foot. In United’s pre-season clash against Club America he popped up in the number 10 position at times, and had his best joy against the opposition defence when moving infield.
3Weaknesses
The only real weakness evident in Chong’s game at this early stage of his development is his almost incessant use of his left foot. Even when dribbling he always prefers to keep the ball away from his weaker right foot, though he is hardly punished at youth level for that remarkable one-footedness.When he starts getting a chance in senior matches, Chong will find the game much more unforgiving, and he’ll surely need to start using both feet to play at the highest level.Video evidence
Arsene Wenger handed the midfielder a shock start in the Premier League clash away to Newcastle United last season and he has continued to progress. Using the advice of his father (who uses analytical and video analysis after all of his games) the 19-year-old has the ability and guidance to make it to the very top.
