Internet sensation Darren Watkins Jr, aka IShowSpeed, is quite upbeat ahead of Manchester United vs Tottenham. The die-hard Cristiano Ronaldo fanatic has made a special request to a young star who also looks up to the soccer icon, Alejandro Garnacho. It seems Speed wants Garnacho to pull off Cr7’s iconic celebration with an unusual added condition after scoring. Will the Argentine youngster accede to the demand that left him speechless?

The game is expected to be a tight affair. Both teams are in the top 4 race, while the Red Devils’ recent form has been less than impressive. It looks like IShowSpeed is counting on Alejandro Garnacho to inspire a memorable win.

A livestream with the Argentine sensation and IShowSpeed is a headline in itself. The conversation that happened on it was even more interesting. Alejandro Garnacho said, “If I score, I will do what you say now.” The visibly excited Speed did take his time to think through but made full use of the opportunity. Speed said, “Do the Siuu & then bark.” The content creator even went one step further and demonstrated how he expected the bark. It’s safe to say that the winger was lost for words. Interestingly, Speed has never shied away from expressing his admiration.

Previously, Alejandro Garnacho had scored an unbelievable bicycle kick against Everton, one very reminiscent of Cristiano Ronaldo’s effort against Juventus back in 2017. Speed tweeted that even CR7 would have been proud! Moreover, the teenage sensation could benefit from Speed’s request. After all, it is only valid if he does end up scoring a goal. Considering Tottenham’s recent form, Erik ten Hag & Manchester United are not the obvious favorites heading into the game. Yet, Alejandro Garnacho could be the x-factor for the Dutch tactician.

Alejandro Garnacho-The bright spot amid a misfiring attack

Manchester United’s attack has struggled for goals this season. The likes of Martial (1 goal), Antony (0 goals), and Hojlund (1 goal) have been guilty of missing far too many chances this season. Yet, the form of a 19-year-old Garnacho has been a lifesaver. His performance even ousted Marcus Rashford from his favored left-flank position.

With 5 goals and 2 assists in the season, the Argentine youngster is not the finished article. His underlying numbers are impressive and he ranks with 93% of progressive carries and averages 3.51 shots per 90 minutes. He also works incredibly hard defensively and it is understandable why the manager rates him highly. Hence, just like Speed, even the Manchester United fan’s best bet will be on Garnacho to be the difference maker.

Soccer was the first sport I played in my life. It turned out to be my favorite one by an absolute mile. In my younger days, I became a Liverpool fan but it was only when Jurgen Klopp arrived that my passion for the game intensified.
