Many people are not satisfied with the result of the match between Manchester United and Villa, especially when Manchester United led 2-0 and was equalized by Villa, but this game is the true level of Manchester United's current players, if a team occasionally does not perform well is an accident, then in the case of several coaches, it is not an accident. The most iconic scene of this game was coutinho, who did not play for Villa, and the appearance of helping Villa equalize can show how poor United's defense is. Take a brief look at this game, focus on Manchester United, why this team is exposing its true level.
In many Manchester United games, who are the names of the players we see the most? Can it be said to be De Gea, so this is the problem
That's the problem of Manchester United's backline, why is there a lot of problems in Manchester United's backline, but many people don't feel that way? That's because of De Gea's wonderful performances, Manchester United seem to concede fewer goals. In fact, the current Lonnick tactics, the center-back must have the ability to shoot the ball, and have a good ability to defend, this is the key part. Manchester United look like the most consistent defensive Maguire this year has not performed well because of injuries, Varane now looks like a player prone to defensive errors, and Lindelof looks the same, with the ability to shoot the ball, but also defensively out of position a lot. The full-backs themselves need to have good assists and passing skills, and as a result, the current full-backs are not good at attacking and defending. Then Lonnick's tactics seemed to rely on speed in the case of offense and defense, and a lot of problems arose. The result is to see De Gea's performance. Looking at the two goals conceded, it's not all defensive mistakes at centre-backs that lead to goals conceded, but basically they're caused by United's midfielder conceding the ball, so the backline may need to change a lot. Normally, the defenders before this team look like they have obvious advantages and disadvantages, but at least there is not a very versatile player.
The defense in midfield is really bad, that's the problem, but it can't be blamed on Lonnick
This is the trouble problem, Manchester United want to play high pressing, need a good defensive midfield, the team did not, the reason why Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was dismissed was also because the midfield defense is not good, the team wants to play defensive counterattack tactics, but the midfield defense is not good, who is this problem? In fact, it is still a problem of the reinforcement team, the team has always needed a good defensive midfielder, but here comes Van de Beek, a player who plays in the front. This Manchester United started can be, the result of the first half of the continuous loss of the ball in the midfield, resulting in a constant crisis in the team, this is because the midfield can not meet the requirements, so the helpless thing is this. But this is also a historical problem, Manchester United has not solved the defensive problem of the back for several years, and it seems that the coaches who have left the class have left because of this. Although Villa seems to have a lot of problems in midfield, after Coutinho came out, it was obvious that the attack of this team in midfield was much better, and Manchester United did not seem to have such a player. So now the level of this team's midfield is not the level of a strong team.
The problems on the front line are obvious and young people are needed
Erlanga is better than Sancho, why? Because Ellanga looks not only can but also play under the feet, but also can fight, it seems that there is some speed, Sancho actually looks like there is technology, confrontation is not good, so in this tactical system, Sancho is not good to use normal, and Sancho's first step start speed is not as good as Elanga, it feels that Sancho is going to play the bench next, after all, the current Manchester United tactics need to attack and defend a balanced full-back. Greenwood's question, in a word, is there a better alternative? Manchester United's forward lines seem to be players who are stronger than defensive, so whoever chooses to start is the same, and there will be no improvement. The center really needs young people, and Cavani really can't. This high press requires the help of all the players to defend.
Finally, simply say Villa, Coutinho as long as the core positioning, really good performance, this is the focus. Villa's Dinier performance in this game is also good, and this is also the key, so for this team, it looks like the next game can be expected.
