“I fear” – Southampton goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu sent worrying warning ahead of Manchester United encounter
Paul McGrath, a renowned footballer from Ireland, has warned Gavin Bazunu, the goalkeeper for Southampton, to be prepared for a challenging game against Manchester United.
The two teams will be facing each other in their 26th Premier League match of the season on March 12th, at Old Trafford.
Southampton will aim to continue their winning streak after their victory against Leicester City in the previous weekend.
Nonetheless, it will not be an easy task for them to secure a favorable outcome against Manchester United, who have won nine and drawn two out of twelve home league games this season under Erik ten Hag’s leadership.
In addition to McGrath’s warning about the tough game against Manchester United, the team will also be motivated to recover from their recent devastating defeat of 7-0 against Liverpool in their last Premier League match.
McGrath believes that this trip to Old Trafford could be a challenging experience for Bazunu, and he advises him to be ready for a demanding afternoon.
Furthermore, McGrath has also expressed concern about the possibility of relegation for Southampton, including Ruben Selles and the rest of the team.
“I fear Gavin Bazunu is in for a very difficult afternoon too, when his Southampton side heads to Old Trafford in the Premier League today,” McGrath wrote in his Sunday World column.
The lad is going to be a great goalkeeper for club and country, but you have to feel this is going to be a very testing 90 minutes for the Dubliner.”
“The Southampon defence will hardly be up to stopping Marcus Rashford in his current form and the more I see of this kid Alejandro Garnacho on the wing, the more I like him.”
“No, it could well be a very busy match for Gavin, in what is proving to be a very troubled season indeed for Southampton.”
“After losing to Leeds last weekend, the Saints now have relegation written all over them.”
McGrath had a successful career at Manchester United, playing for the team for seven years from 1982 to 1989.
Ahead of the upcoming match against Manchester United, Southampton’s manager Ruben Selles praised Theo Walcott for his contributions to the team.
Selles highlighted Walcott’s experience and expertise, which he believes are valuable assets to the squad. Walcott played a crucial role in Southampton’s recent victory against Leicester City, starting in the game.
However, it is uncertain whether he will be included in the starting line-up for the upcoming match against Manchester United.
