Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag was happy to get Amad Diallo on the pitch in defeat at Nottingham Forest.
The fit-again attacker was a second-half substitute at the City Ground.
Ten Hag said: "In the second half, they [the attackers] were in the match.
"I thought Amad Diallo came in really good, Alejandro Garnacho played a very good game, I think. How he fought for that all the time and prepared the goal, a good goal by Marcus Rashford."
He added: "The ranking doesn't lie. We have to make our performances consistent so we have to do better and have to invest from the first minute. But I know the reasons and it makes no sense to get frustrated. I have to work on my team and that is what we are doing day by day."
