Premier League 2019-20: 3 players Manchester United should try to improve their results

3) Brandon Williams

Brandon Williams

19-year-old left back Brandon Williams, who is a product of the Manchester United youth system and currently plies his trade for the club's under-23 team, might seem like an unusual addition to this list. But there is reason to believe that he can provide United the solution to their flagging problems in the wings.

Williams got a taste of travelling with the first team when he went to the Champions League away tie to PSG (which of course, United won miraculously) earlier this year. He did not make the bench then but will surely be hoping to do so now.

An injury to first team left back Luke Shaw has meant that manager Solskjaer has decided to go with club captain Ashley Young in that role. But Williams should be given an opportunity to see what he can offer.

The young Englishman is similar to Young in the fact that he too is right-footed, but what he can do much better is offer pace on the ball. Williams has constantly shown in under-23 games that he can make pressing runs on the wings and also rush back quickly to make defensive adjustments.

He can also cut inside to the midfield and create lay-offs for the more attack-minded players. The boy is the form of his life and Solskjaer must give him an opportunity now, as a possible solution to United's problems in the wings.
