Lost 4 consecutive away games.

For the first time in the history of the Premier League, Manchester United lost all the way away. Losing to Manchester City and Liverpool, many Manchester United fans gritted their teeth. Losing Arsenal was the most frustrating thing for them. For many years, United held Arsenal, from home to country, from league to cup. 8-2 in the Premier League, the FA Cup 7 defenders easily advanced, and the Champions League double-wins over two legs. The humiliation you can think of, Manchester United have let Arsenal taste it. Wenger survived until Ferguson closed the mountain, only to break free from the bottom of the crownless mountain and end his coaching with three FA Cups.

In those days, Arsenal didn't have much to do, but there were endless paragraphs. What is "the most advanced", what is the "physical examination door", after being laughed at by the opponent, he will blacken himself. They can't see the hope of ZTE, and they can't let go of the glory of the past. Self-pity, self-pity, the flag is stopped. For a while, even the scribblers lost interest in choreographing Arsenal.

Manchester United fans did not expect that they would have this day.

Manchester United did not give in and took over the "crown" of the Premier League duan king. Almost nine years after Ferguson retired, Manchester United fans have tasted all kinds of bitter fruits swallowed by gun fans. Nine were fed by Liverpool over two legs, 6-1 at home by Tottenham, lost three consecutive semi-finals, scored six points in the first two rounds of the Champions League group and failed to qualify, and the Europa League final was dragged to 100 minutes for substitution...

Maguire, Pogba, Martial, Rashford and Greenwood, one by one, were ugly. Louis van Gaal's hypnosis, Mourinho's three-finger respect, Ole's DNA, finding two acting coaches to buy time for the official manager...

In all this case, Manchester United in this nest of failures, let the gun fans pay back all the humiliation they have suffered in the past. Losing 3-1 to Arsenal in this round, the fourth place for Manchester United does not have much meaning and value, but it is a very exciting event for Arsenal. Those who were suspicious of Arteta, those who had cursed him at one time, should recognize that there were unusual qualities in this young marshal. That's resilience.

Tenacity is not blown out.

It was fought down one by one. Even in the passive situation of losing three consecutive rounds, Arteta still maintains a firm belief. After chelsea and Manchester United, Arsenal's Champions League prospects are clear. The remaining fixtures (West Ham, Leeds United, Everton and Newcastle) are similar in difficulty to Tottenham 's (Leicester City, Liverpool, Burnley and Norwich), with the Gunners and nemesis with a make-up match. After tottenham's visit to Liverpool at Tottenham, Arsenal should have taken the strategic initiative and an unbeaten away game was basically appropriate.

How did Arteta turn the tide and turn the situation to his side? Compared with Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal, all three have taken the DNA path. Only Arteta had the trophy, and Lampard left class as soon as possible. Arteta survived two of his peers, luck is part of it, daring to rectify the team to give up the big names, more critical, more valuable. Ole led the team to rely on coaxing, but he could not feel the "rotten apple" in the team, and was eventually toyed with and abandoned by the big players.

In the last round, Arteta boldly used Nketia to beat Chelsea; this round, it was Xhaka's turn to shine, locking in three points with a beautiful heavy shot. Xhaka has a lot of controversy, and since playing for Arsenal, he has repeatedly ruined the team's good game because of poor discipline on the field. Other coaches may not have as much patience, but Arteta can focus on the big picture, see the strengths of Xhaka, and renew his contract to give the Swiss midfield a chance to renew. Xhaka handed over a beautiful answer sheet in this field, and the statistics were solid and dazzling.

Another standout is left-back Nuno Tavares. Three consecutive defeats have allowed the Portuguese newcomer to carry a lot of black pots. In this round, he was the first to break the deadlock and, like Xhaka, was extremely active. Arteta didn't believe the wrong person. Tierney's injury once worried gun fans. It now appears that Tavares has done a good job of filling the vacancies. Kenyo Fuan returned from injury, and Arsenal were close to the strongest squad.

Manchester United fans will be unconvinced: the home team's luck is also too good! Indeed, Cedric intercepted Sancho and was suspected of handball in the penalty area, Tavares was suspected of pulling down Erlanga in the penalty area, and Manchester United was suspected of penalty twice, but did not get sympathy from the little black house. Instead, Tres intercepted Saka and was awarded a penalty. As a Manchester United fan, the team's fate this season has been so bad that unjust cases abound, and it is difficult to really make people really angry. Even if they didn't lose to Arsenal, United would never deserve to win.

Lonnick removed Maguire, United's defence remained fragile and chaotic, and Telles was directly responsible for the first two goals conceded. He wasn't the worst performer of the season, Luke Shaw and he laughed fifty paces. Dalot had the opportunity to send a mid-game for C Ronaldo, but he greedily got up and hit the pillar. Even Bruno Fernandez, the fans trusted most, has become mediocre and bleak. At 12 yards, he also hit the upright. Since joining the club, Manchester United's achievements have been closely related to Bruno's contribution, and the fans are very grateful for his efforts. Without his goals and assists this season, United are even worse ranked.

Helplessly, there are too many "rotten apples" around, and Bruno himself is in danger of being corroded and alienated. After the renewal of the contract, Bruno seems to have relaxed his requirements for himself, and the performance is obviously far from his true level. The news of the change of coach also failed to inspire him to recover. He did create a lot of opportunities for the team, but United fans know it: it's not Bruno they're familiar with. If Carrick continues to represent, or if the new manager takes over early, Bruno, and the whole Team of Manchester United, will not be so lazy and unmotivated.

How would Tenhach use Bruno? It's no less suspenseful than how Tennhach and C Ronaldo work together. C Ronaldo broke the egg and saved a loss of face for Manchester United. It was his 100th Premier League goal for Manchester United, just a stroke on his resume that wouldn't change the big picture. Why not let Cristiano Ronaldo handle the penalty? Was it Lonnick's arrangement, or was it the result of the players' self-negotiation?

Lonnick will enter the history of the team as "the worst manager of Manchester United in the history of the Premier League". Such a bad coach, why would Manchester United insist on asking him to fight the fire? Was it Murtaf's idea? Or is there someone else? Longnick did not talk less before and after the game, and he also told the big truth. If you can take Manchester United with the truth, how many people in the world can get involved in the manpower position of Manchester United? To tell the truth, behind it is actually the embarrassing face of this "grandmaster" throwing the pot.

United's bad luck this game is certainly a microcosm of the team's recent weakness and low. But this low and dazed, Lonnick can not use "blind to tell the big truth" to wash away his incompetence. How did such a person get the favor of Manchester United if he did not handle the relationship with the players, could not carry out the routine he pursued, and downplayed his responsibilities? Looking through the reports before and after his appointment, "the interview performance was outstanding and impressed Manchester United", which is the reason. As a result, will Manchester United fans also be unable to trust Tenhach, who has a better interview?

Tactics and ideas matter. Practice is even worse. Lonnick's half season is both the result of United's blindness and inhumanity, as well as the embodiment of nerdy rhetoric. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the Zhao Kuo and Ma Mo of football. The thought that this man will also influence and even intervene in the rebuilding of Manchester United in the future makes it difficult to suppress a cloud in your mind. I questioned early on: If Lonnick can't finish the battle for four, who is this pot? In order to identify official coaches, active coaches like Conte are not used, and thousands of mountains and rivers cut Lonnick out of Moscow, why? Manchester United changed the head, but the question mark did not straighten, but more. Manchester United fans need to be mentally prepared, and after Tenhach takes office, Manchester United may have more unjust cases.

Frequent controversies, the scale of the referee is not the same left and right to compete for 4 situations?

Arsenal's match against Manchester United ended in a 3-1 win for the Gunners. A series of controversial penalties in the game have influenced the trend of the game to a considerable extent. The English media and celebrity groups generally seem to have a low opinion of the law enforcement of the referee on duty, Bowson.

The number of controversial penalties that have occurred in this game is staggering even in the Premier League. There were as many as five fouls on suspected penalties on both sides, and in the end, Bowson awarded 2 penalties with the help of VAR. But the scale of this is confusing to everyone: only Tavares committed a handball foul in the box in the second half without controversy. But it was also one of the most incomprehensible fouls, with BBC commentator Shearer rather confusedly saying in "The Match of the Day": "I still don't understand why he (Tavares) is so exaggerated to raise his arm and jump to the top, which is almost from the beginning to signal to the referee that he has the will to handball in the box." 」 ”

Tavares handball is evident.

On the other 4 controversial awards, Tavares was also the "perpetrator" of two of them, and both times he attacked Erlanga. One was to interfere with the opponent in the penalty area in a strange "hook-up" way after he had just scored to break the deadlock, but although the two had obvious physical contact, Elanga fell to the ground and was considered relatively far-fetched by Baoson, so he was indifferent to it. However, Shearer and Arsenal star Ian Wright interpreted it from a different perspective: "If this scene had happened outside the box, Bowson would probably not have been so merciful, but would at least blow fouls and award Manchester United a free kick." ”

Hot discussion | Maguire: Without me, the Manchester United backline is not the same?!

Tavares "hooked up" with Elanga.

Of course, Bauson's disregard for this level of physical contact in the restricted area is not a big mistake. His problem was that Tres then knocked down Saka's similar foul on the other side of the penalty area, and with VAR intervention, Bauson personally went to the sideline to watch the slow-motion replay and then blew the penalty. This makes Shearer feel that it is a runaway behavior that undermines his own law enforcement scale: "Tavares's foul was actually not uncommon in the Premier League, but the problem is that you have to maintain the consistency of your own law enforcement scale, and Tres this foul was taken by him on another scale, and it has to be said that this led to the loss of control in the second half of the game." ”

Tres knocked down Saka and was sentenced to capital punishment.

In addition, when Arsenal side Cedric defended the edge of the penalty area once, due to the loss of center of gravity of his body, he fell forward and used his turf hand to pull the ball out of the box. Despite Sancho's complaints, Bauson remained unmoved. The penalty also led to disagreements in the BT Sports Studio, where arsenal star Keion believes that there is an exemption to the rules for supporting the hand touch when falling to the ground, and the slow-motion replay at the existing angle makes it difficult to determine whether the ball has crossed the penalty area line when Cedric's hand touches the ball.

Cedric handball was "exempted".

Manchester United star Ferdinand believes that Cedric has "crawled" on the lawn for several meters before touching the ball, and if the ball with the support hand can be exempted from just falling to the ground, it is difficult to say that it is not a deliberate handball, and he insists that the Handball area of the Portuguese defender occurs in the penalty area. However, for the debate among the guests, Peter Wharton, a retired referee invited by BT Sports, believes that Baoson's penalty is not a big problem: "There is indeed such an exemption clause in the rules, and Cedric's handball still seems to be within the scope of the exemption, not particularly out of bounds." ”

Xhaka's shot was blocked by De Gea's view.

In addition, Xhaka's last long-range shot, some United fans pointed out that Nketiah's offside position interfered with De Gea's vision and should be cancelled after VAR review according to similar cases in other leagues. However, the English media generally believe that because between Xhaka and De Gea, in addition to the offside Nketiya, there is also a Lindelev who is moving laterally trying to block Xhaka's shot, and his range of movement is much larger than that of Nkedia. Peter Walton pointed out that in order to overturn Xhaka's long-range goal, VAR had to find clear evidence that Nketiah blocked De Gea's line of sight in the offside position, which eventually led to the goal: "It is difficult to be sure that he or Lindlev blocked De Gea's view, and in fact if both people have a line of sight block, it is very difficult to overturn such a goal. ”

Bruno was given a yellow card for pedaling tavares.

In the end, Bruno Fernandez stomped on Tavarez's ankle and was shown a yellow card by Bowson, while VAR also chose silence in the review. Shearer and Wright both expressed their incredulity, and they reviewed the foul from multiple angles, finding that Tavares had already passed the ball out before Bruno's foot, and the latter did not look at where the ball was in the whole process of the foot, which was a vicious foul that was obviously wrong to the person. It was just that the situation at the scene was already a little out of control, so both the referee and the VAR chose to show a yellow card such a "downgrade" treatment.

After this game, Manchester United are 6 points behind fourth-placed Arsenal in the case of one more game, and the Red Devils have basically withdrawn from the top four competition, and the next battle will be in Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, the sworn enemies of North London. Ferdinand directly asserted that Manchester United have lost the Champions League next season: "Although the reality is harsh, I still have to say that after Ronnick arrived, the situation of Manchester United has become worse than before Ole Gunnar Solskjaer left, and now Manchester United is no longer able to reach the top four of the league, they have no chance, and the fight for four has ended early for Manchester United. ”

As for the new manager Tenn hach, who was officially announced before the game, Ferdinand stressed that this time of reconstruction, the team from top to bottom, must give the Dutch coach sufficient resources and patience: "Now is the real low point of manchester United as a club (in the Premier League era). But the new manager has been decided, I believe the rebuilding work has officially started, you need to give him time, don't tie him down, be more patient, and equip him with the corresponding resources. Rebuilding a successful club takes time and patience. ”
