Video: 3 goals conceded, 0 high claims, 38% long balls: United loanee suffers nightmare in top-of-table clash

Manchester United had two players in loan action on Sunday. To find out how all of Manchester United’s loanees are performing this season, click here. Andre Onana The Cameroonian goalkeeper conceded three goals as Trabzonspor drew 3-3 with Besiktas. Onana could not be faulted for the first goal as it was rifled in from close range, giving him very little time to react. Nonetheless, there will be significant question marks over the second goal. Vaclav Cerny shot into the bottom corner but, in a familiar sight for Manchester United fans, Onana was far too late to get down and the ball crept into the goal when it ought to have been saved. There was also little he could do for the third goal as the ball was swept in to complete a flowing counter-attack. He prevented -0.87 goals in the match and made only two saves during the entire 90 minutes. Onana also completed zero high claims and zero punches during the entirety of the game. His passing was also off, as he completed just 38% of his long ball attempts. With Onana looking unlikely to be heading to the Africa Cup of Nations after all, he could next be in action on Wednesday versus Alanyaspor in the Turkish Cup. Rasmus Hojlund After a heroic brace against Juventus last week, Rasmus Hojlund returned to earth with a bump yesterday. He was in no sort of form as SSC Napoli crashed to a 1-0 loss to Udinese. Hojlund had two shots in the match and missed one big chance to get his side an equaliser. The Dane also completed just 12 passes during the match but he was successful in two out of three dribble attempts. The striker was also ineffective in his duels, winning just two out of nine ground battles. He also struggled to assert himself aerially, again coming out on top in just two out of seven headers. Hojlund will be looking to make amends when Napoli play AC Milan in the semi-final of the Italian Cup on Thursday.
