Man United always have special feelings for Scott McTominay

Ngọc Anh |

With Scott Mctominay joining Napoli, Man United have lost one of the most diligent fighters at Old Trafford in many years.

Although not considered a club legend, Scott McTominay still left his own mark in Man United's turbulent period. The Scot midfielder has played under five different coaches over the course of nine seasons at the "Theatre of Dreams".

Perhaps not helping the "Red Devils" return to their heyday, McTominay has brought fans memorable moments in 255 appearances since May 2017. One of the most memorable moments was a goal against Man City to seal Man United's 2-0 win under Ole Solskjaer in March 2020.

Scott McTominay has United's DNA and it was sad to see him leave. He is always 100% dedicated to the club and always brings positives to the coaching staff and teammates - Solskjaer shared.

The former Man United captain compared the loss of McTominay to the times the team parted ways with Jonny Evans and Danny Welbeck. These are players from the Carrington academy. The Norwegian coach affirmed that McTominay will continue to shine and demonstrate his individual qualities at his new club.

Going back in time, Solskjaer initially had little confidence in McTominay. He did not feature for two months in the Premier League after taking over in December 2018. However, when the squad was broken up by the injury storm, the star born in 1996 had the opportunity and took it excellently.

Under Solskjaer's guidance, McTominay has been encouraged to attack - something he has always wanted from a midfielder. As Man United travel to Paris in March 2019 to play the second leg of the Champions League round of 16, the "Red Devils" are in a deadlock after being behind PSG 2-0 from the first leg at Old Trafford. McTominay had an excellent performance in the dramatic 3-1 victory, helping Man United win a ticket to the next round.

That night was probably the best moment of my life. We want to have more moments like that at the club. Everyone will work hard to ensure that it will come" - McTominay shared after the victory in Paris.

McTominay has always had a fighting spirit, determination and never avoided challenges. Mourinho once created a special award called His Player to honor the Scottish midfielder. The special has always appreciated McTominay, considering him an example for other players.

However, there was no wave of opposition from fans when the news of McTominay leaving Old Trafford appeared this summer. Instead, there is an acceptance that this could be the best for both sides. Man United earned up to 30 million Euros, while McTominay will have more playing opportunities in Napoli.

This does not mean that McTominay is not appreciated at Man United. He is an important part of the squad, not only a starting player, but also a quality reserve option in many positions when needed. Fans can understand the decision of the board and will always remember one of the players who showed top loyalty to the team.

McTominay has devoted himself to Man United since joining the team at the age of 10. He is mature, full of courage and confidence. Moving to Napoli could be a turning point in McTominay's career, just like Chris Smalling found his "new home" at AS Roma.

With a move to Serie A, McTominay will have the opportunity to show his talent in a new environment, where he could become an important factor in Napoli's midfield - something he has always craved to achieve during his time at Man United.
