Michael Owen's recent statements regarding Rasmus Hojlund have sparked a discussion about the young Danish talent's future at Manchester United. Owen believes that Hojlund has not yet been afforded the chance to showcase his abilities fully, despite his potential as a striker.

Owen's endorsement of Hojlund comes amidst the striker's loan spell at Napoli, where he has been gaining valuable experience in a different footballing environment. The former United forward sees promise in Hojlund's skills and believes that he could excel in the tactical system that Carrick is introducing at Old Trafford.

With the evolving landscape at Manchester United following managerial changes, there is an opportunity for young talents like Hojlund to make their mark. Owen's plea for the club to give Hojlund a 'fair crack of the whip' underscores the importance of nurturing and developing emerging players within the squad.
