Cavani highlighted in additional than three-quarters of the match, but just after the come upon head coach Gennaro Gattuso admitted that the South American continue to has uncertainties over his possess health amounts.
“He didn’t want to play. He desired to engage in 30-35 minutes, but there are footballers that have the disorders to be in from the start out. He has been without the need of team coaching for 3 months and the get the job done beforehand was vital, as was owning competitiveness,” Gattuso admitted.
Although carrying these a player is a risk that a club like Valencia can manage to get for the reason that of the high quality he brings when healthy, Manchester United are in need of a dependable backup for Ronaldo.
