Sure, I was of the same mindset when he joined.A lot of the talk when we signed him was that having a strong, fast, mobile number 9 would occupy defenders more than they were last season, which would make Rashford even more productive. Hojlund isn’t expected to be our main goalscorer. Rashford is.
Had Rashford as our top scorer again, Højlund getting around a dozen with limited minutes, with the rest of the team contributing more, but nobody is holding up their end of the bargain. Rashford trending for fewer goals, Bruno too, nothing on the right side from Antony/Sancho/Pellistri, Garnacho not gonna be prolific when he plays, Højlund gonna have higher expected minutes but a lower than anticipated goals per 90 rate, and nobody from midfield looking like making a meaningful contribution as Casemiro won’t be sustainable.
