Manchester United midfielder, Sofyan Amrabat openly acknowledged his need for consistent playing time to boost his fitness level.
The Moroccan international recently brought in on loan from Fiorentina, marked his first start at United.
The Red Devils confidently advanced to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup with a 3-0 victory at Old Trafford.
Goals from Alejandro Garnacho, Casemiro and Anthony Martial secured a second consecutive win for Erik ten Hag’s squad.
Although Sofyan Amrabat was brought into the squad on transfer deadline day to strengthen United’s midfield choices, he was positioned as a left-back during the match against the London team.

This was his second appearance for the club, having arrived nearly a month ago, with his initial appearance being a late substitute in the weekend match against Burnley.
“I’m not at my best at the moment because I’ve not had a perfect pre-season and a little injury,” Amrabat said in an interview after the Carabao Cup match.
“I’ve trained really hard the last two or three weeks to get to 100 per cent but I need games. If you play games you get stronger and better,” he added.
On making his first appearance at Old Trafford for United, the Fiorentina loanee continued,”Since I was a child I worked for this. I worked very hard my whole career, my whole life for this. To play here is amazing.”
United will face Crystal Palace again in the Premier League on Saturday and fans will be eagerly watching to see more of Sofyan Amrabat’s contributions to the team’s success.
