He is just bitting more than He can chew,they was just lucky that luck wasn’t on our side today’: WestHam Star Muhammed Kudus slammed Garnacho for His celebration today
Manchester United forward Alejandro Garnacho performed the iconic ‘ad board’ celebration after scoring against West Ham, just days after he was urged to stop copying Cristiano Ronaldo.
The 19-year-old winger, who has been one of United’s standout performers this season, gave Erik ten Hag’s side a two-goal advantage in their Premier League clash against the Hammers on Sunday with a deflected effort.
He proceeded to run over to the Old Trafford faithful before sitting on an advert board – something his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo, did back in 2017, after he scored a hat trick against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League semi-final.
So why is this relevant? Well, earlier this week, Argentine teammate Angel di Maria praised Garnacho during an interview with newspaper Ole. but advised the teenager to not imitate the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.
He said: “The only thing I wouldn’t do is celebrate Cristiano. I would score the goal and I would do like Messi does. I’ll stick with that.”
Di Maria would later tip Garnacho to achieve great things in the game. “He is a very fast player, he has incredible ability,” the former United midfielder said.
“He is going to gain it with experience and coming to the national team, it is a place where you learn a lot and continue to improve. It helped me a lot to grow technically in every way, it is spectacular.
“I think he will grow with experience as well. When I was young I wanted to make the play 30 times in the game. Over the years you realise that if you do it 10, but you do it better, it’s worth it.
“He has a lot of future, a very big future. It depends on him, on his head, to be able to handle it. I don’t have much to say, there’s a reason he’s playing for Manchester United.”
