Fosu-Mensah adapting his game with Under-21s
Manchester United Reserves coach Warren Joyce feels Tim Fosu-Mensah will develop his game with the Under-21s this season.
The Dutchman, still only 17, has been working with the older group during pre-season and scored in the friendly at Stockport County. Although a central defender with Ajax, he was also used in different positions by Paul McGuinness at Academy level. During the second half at Edgeley Park, he flourished in an attacking midfield position after starting as centre-back in the 3-3 draw with Salford City alongside Cameron Borthwick-Jackson.
"He [Fosu-Mensah] is a footballer," Joyce told ManUtd.com. "If you’re looking for footballers, you’ve got to look at what their real strengths are.
"He played at the back for us and, in the first game against Salford, he was arguably at fault with their three goals. He could stay there as he’s played there and in holding midfield for his country, the Netherlands, but you have to look at his strengths and what else he can offer the team.
"We’ve got to hone his strengths as well so he ultimately he can be selected for the first team."
