It was a debut to remember for Noussair Mazraoui (DEF, 4.5m) for Manchester United as his new team won the opening game in the new season of the Premier League against Fulham at home with 1-0.

Statistics say a lot; he had 55 touches with the ball, 35.38 passes completed, and there were 3/3 ground duels won.
Additionally, Mazraoui had 3/4 aerial duels won and made 3 interceptions; it was such a great performance by this player, who was in the right back position last night against Fulham.

Mazraoui has played 81 minutes, as Erik ten Hag made more than a solid decision not to risk with him and to keep him building his fitness form in the coming game weeks.
We would add the fact that Mazraoui played 5 passes into the final third during the first half of the match, as no other player in that moment played more; there were 7 passes into the final third in general.
Manchester United fans are for sure impressed by these performances by Mazraoui, and they should be, so there will be big expectations in the coming game weeks also from the Fantasy Premier League managers.
Manchester United will play against Brighton away in the next game week, and it’s important to note that in this moment Mazraoui has 2.8% TSB (teams selected by), and he is the most transferred in player in this moment for game week 2.
