MANCHESTER UNITED fans want answers from Erik ten Hag after watching Kobbie Mainoo shine for the Under-21 side.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 18-year-old impressed in the U21's 4-3 loss to Salford City in the EFL trophy on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Shola Shoretire\u00a0scored two goals either side of a strike from\u00a0Omari Forson\u00a0as the Red's academy unit took a 3-2 lead.<\/p>\n

Salford were then awarded two penalties inside the final ten minutes, with Lund converting both to complete his hat-trick and ensure victory for Gary Neville's club.<\/p>\n

Mainoo- who has just returned from injury- looked comfortable in possession, completing 33 of 37 passes attempted, and provided two assists.<\/p>\n

But his inclusion means he will not be named in Erik ten Hag\u2019s starting XI against Newcastle in Wednesday\u2019s\u00a0League Cup\u00a0clash.<\/p>\n

Another added: \u201cKobbie Mainoo is what we are missing in our midfield. He\u2019s so calm on the ball.\u201d<\/p>\n

A third wrote: \u201cHe is levels above the rest get Mainoo in the first team now\u00a0\ud83d\ude80."<\/p>\n

While another declared: \u201cMaybe Mainoo is the missing piece to our midfield puzzle.\u201d<\/p>\n

United's midfield has been criticised as slow, lacklustre and out of ideas this season.<\/p>\n

The team are in dire need of the energy that the fringe players can bring.<\/p>\n
