3-1 to 0-1, Manchester United played weak teams, C Ronaldo's main position was not guaranteed, and the target cup promotion + return to the top 4
The honeymoon period between Lonnick and Manchester United has passed, and after the last 1-0 loss to Wolves, Manchester United have encountered a relatively large dilemma. From the 3-1 win over Burnley to the 0-1 defeat, United's problems gradually exploded. At 3:55 a.m. Beijing time on January 11, Manchester United will face Aston Villa in the FA Cup, which is an opportunity for Manchester United to breathe a sigh of relief, followed by an Aston Villa game in the Premier League on January 16, for Manchester United is expected to win consecutively.
Ronaldo performed average in the last game, so it also caused a huge controversy, whether the 37-year-old Ronaldo can still start in high-intensity competitions continuously. C Ronaldo's current physical fitness is also difficult to play continuously, and there are some problems in the Manchester United dressing room, and Ronaldo can play as an appropriate substitute. United were very aggressive in their last game against Wolves, with Lonnick using four attackers, Cristiano Ronaldo, Cavani, Sancho and Greenwood, but it didn't work.
Manager Ronnick is also in a difficult situation, C Ronaldo can't play a single arrow now, so Manchester United try to match him with a striker as much as possible. Normally, Cavani and C Ronaldo, the two veterans, will not start the battle together, and there will be some problems in tactical play. Marcus Rashford hasn't been very happy lately, there aren't many opportunities, and against Aston Villa in the FA Cup, United won't all use their main force. Ronaldo is likely to come off the bench in aston Villa' game, which is also a change.
Rashford will partner Greenwood on the offensive end, and Rashford's position in the Manchester United squad has been reduced a lot this season, scoring 21 goals and 12 assists in 46 starts last season, but this season he has only made 9 starts and scored 3 goals due to injuries and Ronaldo's main position. Lonnick is also tied hands and feet, the Manchester United backline against Aston Villa is also crucial, the opponent's counter-attack ability is very strong, and Maguire's injury also makes Ronnick need to adjust.
Manchester United's recent goal is undoubtedly to advance to the cup + return to the top four, in fact, Manchester United's current results are not so bad, in the Premier League with one less game behind the fourth-place Arsenal to reach 5 points, this gap is not very large. Manchester United is fully capable of catching up, C Ronaldo's current situation in Manchester United is actually very passive, scoring goals is deserved, but if he does not play well, he is afraid that he will have to stand on the cusp of the storm. Cristiano Ronaldo is now a double-edged sword for Manchester United, and the game against Aston Villa will be a turning point.
The only strong opponent on The next seven games for Manchester United is West Ham United, followed by a Match against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League. Before the Start of the Champions League, United will have to save enough points in the league and also consider reinforcing in the winter window. Cristiano Ronaldo is not very suitable for Lonnick's technical and tactical play now, the B fee in midfield is not very good, there is no accurate pass last season at Manchester United, and there are also great concerns when organizing the attack in the front, and Manchester United's game against Aston Villa will be the key.
