The performance of the young Tunisian star Hannibal Al-Majbri with his country in the Arab Cup held in Qatar, prompted a number of Manchester United fans to demand that he be given a greater chance with the first team.
Al-Majbari, 18, helped the Carthage Eagles qualify for the final and performed well throughout the tournament, winning two best player awards in his country's two matches against the UAE in the group stage and against Egypt in the semi-finals.
And fans of "Manio" want the team coach, Ralf Rangnick, to give him the opportunity to prove himself.
The tweets of a number of fans showed a desire to see the player in the ranks of the first team of the "Red Devils", according to the British newspaper "Sun".

A fan wrote, addressing Rangnick, "Summon Al-Majbri for the first team to repair the team's midfield."
"I want to give this boy a chance in the second half of the season," another wrote.
Then someone said, "He's a very talented player. It's unbelievable how we have such talent in our second team."
Another message is simply "This boy should be seriously added to our first team".
Rangnick indicated that he is keen to give the youth a chance after he promoted the academy players to the first team this week.
Al-Majbri made his first match for United last season in the Premier League match, which saw the team beat Wolverhampton 2-1, due to his amazing performances in the academy, and the former Monaco player obtained a long-term contract last March.

United fans hope the player will bid again when Tunisia plays the final against Algeria next Saturday.
It is noteworthy that the Tunisian team reached the final match after winning an own goal against Egypt's captain Amr Al-Sulayya against his own goal.
While the "Desert Warriors" achieved a difficult victory over Qatar 2-1 in the second semi-final match.
