The CB combination shines, and Portugal successfully won North Macedonia to get the Qatar World Cup ticket.
The B fee that completed the double was 86% successful, 85 touches, 8 long passes (5 successful), 7 times to regain the ball, 5 shots and 3 targets, 4 successful confrontations, and 4 chances.
Sweep away the slump of the past month and return to thigh-level performance.
Can such a B fee return to Manchester United?
The dust has settled on his future with Manchester United.
According to transfer expert Romano confirmed on social media - B fee has completed the renewal of the contract with Manchester United, the contract is extended to 2027!
The original contract between B fee and Manchester United expires in 2025, and now the salary is also increased from the original 180,000 pounds for another 2 years.
B fee's salary increase and renewal have disguised the possibility of Pogba's free departure this summer, and the new official manager has basically raised his eyebrows, and B fee will become a key part of his tactical system.
Referring to B Fee's past two key battles in Portugal, he also joined forces with C Ronaldo, compared with the previous downturn at Manchester United, Big B Brother is quite handy!
Seeing his two partners in the Portuguese 3 midfield system Moutinho and B seat, the former as a delayed midfield combing the court excellent, which is the shortcomings of Scott McTominay and Fred, the latter often withdraws to respond, but also allows B Fee to comfortably receive the ball in key areas, back to Manchester United Pogba also has such a tactical effect, compared to B table to play the ball more crisply, so that the offensive fluency is greatly improved.
More critically, in addition to being able to comfortably take the ball in front of Portugal, the active counterattack of his teammates when he loses the ball, that is, he is given effective protection, and he has played the advantage of his strong pressing ability, and the 7 times against North Macedonia to regain the ball is the best indication that he can reflect his value in the team system
Everyone has the attitude of grabbing and running to continue to put pressure on the opponent, the second attack opportunity after losing the ball in the front court will not be less, but this is only a few players who can do it in Manchester United, and when the B fee is not in good shape, the error rate is increased, and the shortcomings are naturally enlarged, especially the frontcourt mistakes are not timely and effectively counter-grabbed, waiting for the aircraft carrier turn assist.
If you want to play the role of B Fee, an effective system is very important, especially in his midfield partner, if Pogba leaves the team, it means that the system is reorganized, it turns out that his and Fred + McTominay's midfield combination, it is difficult to reflect the tactical role of 1 +1 +1 >3, the latter two lack the ability to comb the ball in the backcourt, making B Fee need to often withdraw to take the ball to assist the attack.
At the same time, Sancho, Marcus Rashford and Erlanga's sense of rebound after conceding a goal in the front is comparable to Portugal's Jota, Otavera, Felix, etc., and at present, only Erlanga can do this.
Romeo has never questioned B Fee's ability, but the Portuguese twin stars want to show a better tactical role in Manchester United, and the new Manchester United official manager should refer more to the establishment of the Portuguese national team system and how to attract reinforcements in the summer window.
