United star issues strong claim after the team matched an unwanted club record in draw vs. Chelsea
Yesterday at 05:00 PM
Manchester United defender Noussair Mazraoui has insisted that he and his teammates have too much quality to be in 13th position in the Premier League.
United are at the bottom of the table, having won just three of their opening 10 top-flight fixtures.
The Red Devils have garnered just 12 points – their worst points tally after 10 matches since the 1986/87 campaign.
Mazraoui was one of the team’s standout performers during Sunday’s 1-1 draw against Chelsea, excelling in a largely unfamiliar left-back position.
The Morocco international was brilliant both defensively and offensively and earned himself rave reviews from the media and supporters.
After the final whistle, he spoke to MUTV (via the Independent) and pointed out, “We fought really hard. But I think eventually if you look at the game and the chances we created, we deserve to win.”
“I think if you look at the table where we are now, you cannot say that's where we belong. Everybody knows that. We know that.”
“We have to step up and get away from there really, really fast because, yeah, that's just not us.”
He added, “You see that (against Chelsea). We have too much of a quality to be there in this position.”
Mazraoui disagreed with suggestions that the match was too physical. He opined that it “was really passionate” as both sides wanted to win and clinch all three points.
The 26-year-old further stated, “I think for the supporters a great game to watch, even though there were just two goals in there. I think an amazing game to watch from everybody.”
Mazraoui and his teammates are set to host Greek outfit PAOK FC on Thursday and they will undoubtedly be keen to register a first Europa League victory of the campaign.
