# Manchester United: Fans deliver verdict on Tahith Chong after Chelsea snub

**Manchester United secured an important victory over Norwich City on Sunday and built on that against Chelsea last night, but a social media release from the Red Devils regarding one player has got some fans calling for the club to loan out one of United’s prospects.**

Tahith Chong, 19, is yet to [sta](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/365244/Show/Tahith-Chong)r[t](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/365244/Show/Tahith-Chong) in the Premier League under Ole Gunnar Solskjær in 2019/20, although the Dutch U21 international has slowly made his way into contention at Old Trafford whilst making [seven](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/365244/Show/Tahith-Chong) appearances across five competitions in both the academy and the first-team.

Indeed, the young Dutchman was left out of the squad for last night’s win away at Chelsea in the Carabao Cup due to those behind the scenes wanting to prioritise game-time for the youngster, who featured for their youth side against Doncaster earlier in the week as per the [Manchester Evening News](https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/man-united-news-greenwood-chong-17174690).

Here is what a section of the support online made of the youngster after the club tweeted about him.
