Donny van de Beek endures nightmare start to life at Eintracht Frankfurt as Man Utd loanee is hauled off at half-time after another dismal showing

Bundesliga

Eintracht Frankfurt

Werder Bremen

Van de Beek's feeble start to life at Eintracht Frankfurt continued on Friday as he was substituted at half-time having been unable to impose himself on the game. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/fresh-start-donny-van-de-beek-man-utd-outcast-completes-loan-transfer-eintracht-frankfurt-eur14m-buy-option/blt956e4aff164c5577" target="_blank">Since joining on loan from United</a>, Van de Beek has started two of the Bundesliga side's three games but offered little to suggest he will continue to start. The Dutchman was replaced by Fares Chaibi and Frankfurt went on to win the game 1-0.

WHAT HAPPENED?

If Van de Beek expected his troubles to disappear as soon as he departed United, he may be disappointed. However, the midfielder must be cut some slack as, having not played a single minute of Premier League football <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/van-de-beek-preferred-position-really-happy-play-90-minutes-loan-move-everton-man-utd/blt9d038937fffa764a" target="_blank">since on loan at Everton last season</a>, he will still be coming up to speed with regards match fitness. However, with his loan lasting just until the end of the season, he will have to improve if the move is to be made permanent.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Van de Beek made just one appearance for United this season - playing 19 minutes off the bench in the Carabao Cup against Crystal Palace. Van de Beek replaced Hannibal Mejri - <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/sevilla-brutal-statement-hannibal-mejbri-man-utd-loanee-makes-worrying-start-la-liga-club/blt68cde4dad03ae4b6" target="_blank">another United player having loan troubles of his own.</a>

DID YOU KNOW?

Van de Beek will aim to improve his performance in Frankfurt's game against FC Koln next weekend. The 26-year-old will be hoping to have plenty of suitors in the summer, but will need to start putting in stronger showings or face another year rotting on the United bench.
