Manchester United have been reversed again, and in the just-concluded 25th round of the Premier League, Manchester United was forced to draw with Southampton in the lead, and this game was the same as the previous round against Burnley, with a good first half, scoring 1 goal. He conceded the ball at the beginning of the second half and was subsequently suppressed by the opponent. And after this game, there is something more heartfelt, that is, Southampton manager Hüttle has publicly said that Manchester United's weaknesses are known to everyone and we have taken advantage of this.
In this game, Manchester United started well and frequently caused trouble for Southampton, but after Manchester United took the lead, Southampton began to exert its strength, and then Manchester United was fully passive, and the opponent equalized in the second half. Honestly, though, if it weren't for Southampton's lack of ability to take advantage of opportunities, and if it weren't for the referee's vicious foul in the final stages of ignoring Maguire, it is difficult to say whether United would have scored a point. It can be said that manchester United picked up 1 point in this game. Manchester United fans should probably be satisfied.
United have underperformed and the team's top star, Cristiano Ronaldo, has set an embarrassing record, as Ronaldo has yet to score in 2022 and has not scored in six consecutive games. Having not scored in six consecutive games, such a ball shortage may be normal for some forwards, but it is not normal for Cristiano Ronaldo. Because, in the past 13 years, Ronaldo has never had a 6 consecutive round of ball shortage. It is no wonder that Cristiano Ronaldo was very dissatisfied after the game. However, this does not seem to all be blamed on C Luo.
After the game, Southampton manager Hüttle said in an interview: "After Manchester United lost the ball, their retreat did not do well. It's no secret, and then you have a chance, and we did. You see, we played more energetically, we responded very positively in the second half, we had two or three chances, Armstrong and Broyard both had chances and we definitely had a chance to win. In this game, United's retreat is indeed problematic, or it has been the case recently.
Lonnick likes to play in the 4141 single-back line-up, and Manchester United do not have a back like Kante. What are the consequences of such an arrangement? After the other side steals the attack, the Manchester United midfield is empty, the central defender is forced to press the defense, resulting in a lot of holes in the back line, in this case, the other side can easily break the Manchester United defense line, this is not to mention the manager of other teams in the Premier League, many fans have seen it.
At present, Manchester United has encountered a lot of problems, the team is not sharp enough in attack, and fear of the other side's push, many teams are using these things against Manchester United. As for now, whether Lonnick has not found a solution to the problem. If we continue like this, I am afraid that It will be very difficult for Manchester United to compete for four this season, even if it is six, it may not be easy!
