Right now, Hojlund is going through a great spell and scoring goals. His goal against Aston Villa showed how great his positioning was. When you have set-pieces, the striker needs to position themself to know and anticipate where the ball is going to drop. So for me, his goal against Villa was an ugly goal, but it was important. Keep scoring, man!
I’m not close to him around the training ground and I’m not a close friend, so I don’t know exactly what the change has been for him. It could be how he trains, how he sleeps, how he prepares himself for games.
His first Premier League goal was crucial and we saw the emotion pouring out of him. After that the other goals have followed.
His confidence has grown and grown after every goal he’s scored. Who knows where he’s going to go? He has that talent of scoring goals with his right foot, left foot and his head and he’s quick.
I’m happy for him. He’s very young and has a lot of responsibility on his shoulders as a striker for United. Right now, everything is finally going well for him. I hope that continues.
