"It's been a frustrating season for Mainoo, who has started just one of his 11 appearances for Amorim's side so far this term the defeat to Grimsby in the Carabao Cup. The highly-rated young England international was previously a key player for Man Utd, playing 37 games in all competitions last season and 32 the year before that, including starting and scoring for the club in their FA Cup final victory over Manchester City."
"I think he tried to leave in the summer to follow Scott McTominay to Napoli, but the club blocked the move. Kobbie Mainoo played himself into the United team and the England set-up by playing absolutely fantastic football for someone so young. He established himself in this team as a starter, and the club and United fans love to see a young player from the academy being successful in the first team."
Rene Meulensteen cannot fathom why Ruben Amorim has given Kobbie Mainoo so little playing time and expects Mainoo could leave Manchester United, possibly on loan in January. Mainoo has started only one of 11 appearances this season, that start coming in the Carabao Cup defeat to Grimsby. Mainoo made 37 appearances last season and 32 the previous season, including starting and scoring in the FA Cup final win over Manchester City. A summer move reportedly to follow Scott McTominay to Napoli was blocked by the club. Reduction in game time is linked to United's summer signings and tactical formation.
