Ian Wright has singled out one Manchester United star as a 'massive problem for everybody'.

United prevailed in a thrilling FA Cup quarter-final tie against Liverpool last Sunday, with substitute Amad Diallo scoring a dramatic winner late on in extra time.

Erik ten Hag's side won the game 4-3 to end Liverpool hopes of a historic quadruple in Jurgen Klopp's last season in charge.

It is the second time United have knocked the Reds out of the FA Cup in the last four seasons, and sets up a semi-final against Championship side Coventry at Wembley.

Scott McTominay and Kobbie Mainoo were both key performers for Ten Hag's side, while Antony scored the equaliser to make the game 2-2 and send it to extra time, before filling in at left-back.

And Bruno Fernandes, while not having his greatest game in a United shirt, picked up an injury and played centre-back in the closing stages, with his long balls forward helping create several attacks.

But there was also a star display from Alejandro Garnacho, who caused Liverpool endless problems and led the breakaway that resulted in Diallo's late winner.

And Wright, speaking on his podcast 'Wrighty's House', had some special words of praise for the 19-year-old's performance at Old Trafford.

He said: "I need to mention Garnacho, because he is a massive problem for everybody.

"In spells and in moments during that game [against Liverpool], he was doing some unbelievable things. I thought it was a very impressive performance in a massive game for him, especially considering his age.

"As soon as they get the structure right around him he can start to learn more and know where he needs to be in a game, because at the moment it's so chaotic in there.

"But if that happens, then we're really going to see the best of him, we really are."
