In terms of results, United's recent results are not unacceptable, they have actually done quite well after Ronnick took office, but they have won too many draws, including Watford, who drew with the relegation zone in the 27th round of the league, which is also the case, and it is for this reason that they have no way to go further in the league table. There are many reasons for this, the front attacking firepower is not up to expectations, the backfield defense is not stable enough, all of which are the problems of Manchester United at present. These situations have not existed for a day or two, not even a season, but have lasted for a long time, but neither Ole Gunnar Solskjaer nor Lonnick has solved these problems very well.
At present, the competition in the top four of the league is still very fierce, in addition to the top two teams Liverpool and Manchester City, including the third place in the league Chelsea ranking is not stable enough, and for the team that hits the top four, Manchester United will be a roadblock, if they want to enter the top four, the first goal is to surpass the current Manchester United, the current team that can affect Manchester United include Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham, West Ham United, are holding the mentality of replacing Manchester United. And Manchester United will face the biggest challenge in the next period of time, they will have to meet the challenge of the 4 giants in succession, and even face the impact of other Premier League powerhouses.
After the match with Watford, Manchester United's next four opponents are Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, Atletico Madrid and Liverpool, these four teams are currently the superpowers in European football, it is not easy to beat any team, let alone face the challenge of the big four giants. It is precisely because of this situation that Manchester United's number one star C Ronaldo has ushered in the biggest test, if it can not pass the level smoothly, perhaps Manchester United's record this season will be greatly affected, and even lose the qualification for the Champions League, which C Ronaldo did not expect when he joined Manchester United. And his performance will also become the key to the success of the team.
In his 30 appearances at Manchester United this season, Ronaldo has scored 15 goals and delivered 3 assists, scoring 9 goals in the league and 6 goals in the Champions League, making him the most threatening player in the team's attack at present. But most of these goals were scored in the first half of the game, in the recent period, Ronaldo's state is not particularly stable, the goal efficiency is not high, and whether he can find his form again in the next period of time is also a big point of view, even what kind of results Manchester United can end this season, the biggest uncertainty.
There's a lot more going on in the Premier League right now, and in addition to the games, there are also a lot of off-field impacts. Chelsea, who are third in the league, have been affected by off-field factors, and their Russian boss Abu has announced his retirement from the management of the team and handed over the management. Whether this event will affect Chelsea's game this season, it will take time to observe, if in the next game, Chelsea's record is not good, perhaps not only the boss Abu left, but also the head coach Tuchel and many players in the team. And all this is the last thing Chelsea want to see.
