Rasmus Hojlund of Manchester United was particularly irritated during Denmark’s 0-0 draw with Switzerland on Saturday night.

When the two countries met for a friendly match, Hojlund reportedly appeared “ready to boil over,” according to Danish newspaper BT. After a rough start to life at Old Trafford following his mega-money move from Serie A club Atalanta in the summer, the youthful forward has only just begun to rediscover form in a United shirt.

Hojlund failed to score in his first 14 Premier League appearances until finally breаking through during the Boxing Day victory over Aston Villa. The Danish international hasn’t really looked back since for his team, scoring seven goals and providing two assists overall for the league.

Having said that, he found it difficult to continue performing at the same level for his country during this international sabbatical. Not only did Hojlund not play the entire ninety minutes, but he expressed his frustration on the field seven minutes before the final siren.

The striker reportedly screamed in rage several times during the game as his teammates disregarded him when he took up several good positions. Hojlund wasn’t the only United player on the field; Christian Eriksen, a midfielder for the Red Devils, also started the entire match.

Eriksen hasn’t got the opportunity to play for United as frequently as he would have liked lately. Hojlund even made his want for his countryman to play more on the field at Old Trafford known in public.

“I myself have sat on the bench for Copenhagen, so I know what that means,” Hojlund stated to TV2. “However, he is a quality player and carries himself with dignity. That is beyond a shadow of a doubt.

“I have no worries whatsoever about it. You want to play football, of course. He undoubtedly does as well. It’s not a huge concern, though, because he still remаins upbeat and helpful and trains well. He really is a professional.

“He played for a few minutes against Liverpool, which was good. He performed a great job, in my opinion, when he entered. You would want to see him on the field because he is a good player, but we have a lot of talented guys. Therefore, the coach must decide whether or not he plays.”
