So, who are the United players who developed rapidly at the beginning of the 2022/2023 season? Let’s scroll down to see it.
1. Marcus Rashford Manchester United
Rashford seems to have received a blessing from the arrival of Erik ten Hag. His performance has increased dramatically when compared to the last 2021/2022 season.
Last season, Rashford did have a problem with fitness. The performance is far from consistent. Rashford very rarely played for 90 minutes. If not replaced, then Rashford becomes a substitute.
Ten Hag then changed Rashford’s fate. Initially, Rashford played as a winger. Then Martial got injured. Rashford was chosen as the centre-forward, ahead of Ronaldo. So far, he has made three goals and two assists in six matches.
2. Jadon Sancho Manchester United
Sancho became a patient in the 2021/2022 season. He was bought for 85 million euros. Sancho arrived with a classy reputation with Dortmund on the Bundesliga stage.
However, Sancho actually struggled to get his best level. Sancho only scored three goals in 29 Premier League games played last season. Sancho has to take a lot of criticism.
The Ten Hag changed Sancho’s fate. The 22-year-old seems to have gotten his best touch earlier this season. Sancho has scored two goals in just six Premier League games, just one goal away from his record last season.
3. Manchester United Raphael Varane
Varane came to Manchester United with superstar status. Varane has four Champions League trophies and one World Cup. Last season, no United player was able to match Varane’s level.
However, Varane’s first season did not run smoothly. Varane is often injured and his performance is flimsy. Varane did not make a significant impact at the back.
In the hands of the Ten Hag, Varane is back at his best. Varane is a very solid central defender. The duet of Varane and Lisandro Martinez was the key to the Red Devils’ four consecutive wins.
4. Manchester United Bruno Fernandes

Since his arrival in January 2020, Fernandes has become an important player at United. However, his role decreased slightly in the second half of the 2021/2022 season. Fernandes is in a very difficult situation.
However, Fernandes is back at his best with Erik ten Hag. Ten Hag’s decision to play Eriksen contributed to the return of the Portuguese player’s best touch.
In the 2022/2023 season, Ten Hag also trusted Fernandes to become captain. When Harry Maguire sits on the bench, Fernandes will be captain and that’s a job well done.

7. Diogo Dalot
Dalot was knocked out of United’s main plan. In the 2020/2021 season, he was released to AC Milan on loan. The following season, Dalot was also not a player who played regularly and consistently.
Dalot became an important player in the era of Erik ten Hag. Of the six Premier League matches that United have played, Dalot has always been the first choice. In fact, Dalot has only been replaced once.
Dalot has a good attacking contribution. He has already made one assist for United. However, the 23-year-old needs to be more consistent in his defensive duties. dtikviral.com
