I thought it is the other way around, United do well in the first half but lose their focus in the second half

@@vlsui66 the comebacks always happened in the second half, so I assume it's that way. You can say it's first half 49% - 51% second half.

No striker except Rash out of position

In order to play consistently the team needs to have chemistry and overall quality which clearly is not the case.

@@Haych222 city were something like this...once with pep in charge

Have you seen Tifo's?

Agreed. Thanks 442

So 2 game weeks

So true

​@@JohnUzojrhe's a troll not an analyst

There is nothing wrong with bashing and blaming. These are overpaid players who are underperforming

@@tercel9710 What, you think they deliberately under perform because they are too rich? If so, that would be the case with every team.......

@@jiggersotoole7823 I don't care if it is deliberate or not. Fans are not paying money to go see garbage performances at OT. We have good players, a good manager too and we should be sitting on 4 (if not 6) convincing points at this stage of the season. Wolves got robbed off a draw by the refs and we got hammered at spurs. Stop making excuses for shit players

​@@jiggersotoole7823does it matter? Their job is to perform. One or two player might go through a tough time, have personal issues but not the entire squad. Some part it like overcrowding certain areas and not having cohesion is due to coaching but these players need to carry a lot of blame.

This exact thing! All Man United fans wanted is calm, clear analysis of the situaytion and this is the only video I've seen that does that.

But it’s exactly that. Training hard works like that. They have just finished their grueling preseason, some of them (antony, bruno, casemiro) will be gassed bt the second half. It will open up soon, the season is long.

Absolutely right but Antony on right with Rashford on left will work out coz thts when Antony will get a lot of space unlike how Garnacho is getting space and Antony is getting closed out.

easy to say, but if u put Rashford back on the left right now, who's gonna be the striker? Hojlund is apparently injured. Martial.. who knows. Sancho false 9 maybe? I still think Garnacho could become a very good player, but it's probably too early for him to be starting regularly. Should be a super sub. Maybe starting in some cup games.

Mount is even less of a winger than Anthony

Mount should be moved to Saudi

you got me on the first half not gonna lie

the owners obviously

I can tell you what is happening in Borussia Dortmund for example, who have similar problem. And it's been the same for 10 years. In the 2019 season they were leading Bayern with 9 points, go to Nurnberg and play 0:0 draw, not even trying to play. Later, Dortmund are still in front of Bayern, and play Bremen. Dortmund are leading 2:0 and just stop. Bremen score twice, and the title is lost. This happened last year as well. The reason is the boss Watzke. He buys Bayern's failures (like Rode and Sabitzer) and lets his best players (like Guerreiro) to go Bayern for free. The boss is a serial loser, so the whole team plays like that. Also, the whole team is made up of loser. The overhaul doesn't help. Because when a player with a drive comes in, he is disliked and dismissed by the losers already in the team (like Bellingham for example). But again, when the president has a loser mentality, so will the players. I've got a feeling something similar is happening in United. And yes, the players show loser mentality. Look at Bruno. Yes, he runs a bit, and then just stops and starts talking to his teammates. This is not a hard working player. Maybe he appears to be, but he is not. He shows lack of character, professionalism, work ethic, and a drive to win.

Bad energy around the owners and the greenwood situation

@@corgansow6173 Well, hopefully it gets better when United becomes the next oil club. xD

if they cant sign a mid they need to start playing a box midfield with an inverting fullback to help out Casemiro. Otherwise they're just gonna run him down due to his workload

yes he can.

I swear to God man there seems to be a witch-hunt in the media for Eric Ten Hag because the Tottenham game wasn't as bad as they're making it to be, he really made them wait so very long to have a go at him

Fr. Mount and Antony have been getting a ridiculous amount of hate. Both do need to improve, but they are absolutely not the reasons for why we are struggling. Mount has actually been pretty good for the most part imo. Our fanbase is the worst in the world for supporting our players, it’s embarrassing. I agree with everything said in this video, but I do also think that ETH has got it tactically wrong as well. For example, the amount we are giving the ball away from being TOO direct, leading to us being awful in possession. The way our chances are created, we are way too reliant on Bruno, and no one else is creating anything. We are giving away way too many chances and look incredibly open. That was even the case in the first minute of this game, and it continued in the first and second half. There’s more than just this, but I will say that the lack of intensity/poor attitude/lack of fitness is the most worrying thing of it all, whatever the reason for it is.

I agree but also ETH needs to ease off training too much and leave them energy for the game. Roy Keane mentioned it I think that could be the issue as they are so knackered so early in the season. of course they look unfit too after the break

The season just started...how can they have fitness issues rn...it's ridiculous

​@@oscarjenkins7505Dude what are you talking Mount and Antony has combined less passes completed than Pape Matar Sarr and we are not paying Mount that much money just to run around like headless chicken or £100mn for Antony just to track back. Antony should have atleast tested GK with that first shot over Bar if he is so one footed not to say burying his second chance and for Mount just watch Bissouma who just dropped shoulder and off he go forward. I agree Mount and Antony getting more criticism but it's not unfair especially for Antony. Everyone has figured out he is one trick pony going to cut and shoot even that is not good. People are calling out Ten Hag for favouritism which is not wrong. Also fitness levels of these players are abysmal and as usual Bruno is getting slagged for being foreign player. He can't do jack if there is no one clever enough to finish chances and as we all know he is not possession based player so he is going to be frustrating at times.

@@rudreshkalgutkar Imo Mount is very intelligent off the ball which created some important chances for Utd, it's clear that he suits the system but definitely needs support from other players. Antony though doesn't really offer much to the team yet.

Liverpool fan, so no horse in this race, but Garnacho should not be defending. You can walk through that dude with ease

Can’t give lack of running as a reason to bench Anthony. Just in this analysis alone you see that he has no problem with full-speed defensive runs. It’s just his defensive intelligence that needs to be worked on, like when he made it to the edge of the penalty box and stopped running. That was more to do with not knowing what to do than just being too lazy.

Exactly. Teething problems. Part of the process.

These players are annoyingly slow learners if what you said is true and they lack the emotional self ctrl to not just default to their old useless habits. Like Antony constantly shooting from obscure locations and not being able dribble with his right foot.

@@iwantgoals1566 yes 80M for one good foot ,so two would cost 160m i suppose....

@@nickg2431 Makes sense

​@@nickg2431This comment deserves Ik likes.😂😂😂

Liked and subscribed for that reason alone

At least you acknowledge your limitations and willing to learn. Most online football fans think they’re prime Mourinho.

I agree totally. Bruno is so frustrating because he seems to have no middle ground, its just amazing thru pass/flick on or turnover on every touch. and every time Onana clears the ball I cringe thinking about how he isn't supposed to be doing that.

Seem united don’t want to hold the ball for too long without an end result like arsenal that’s why the forwards are all trying to up their shot ratio

If they are not tracking back then fullbacks will be very exposed and if the opponent has excellent wingers then it will be disaster

You're living in a previous era of football, can't have passengers in the modern top flight (4231 is questionable as a formation as well)

@@stuckupcurlyguy So explain to me. Who is supposed to help the fullbacks defensively in a 4231 as we played last season. And who's got the responsibility with this seasons formation? It's the wingers. And how will it affect their attacking game? With players like Rashford, Garnacho, Pellistri, Antony e.g Take a look at Pep and City. They sold Sterling and Sane. And now they use players like Bernardo, Foden and Grealish on the wings

Cruyff in his Barca days

Liverpool with Trent and Arsenal with Zinchenko

Thats because he was isolated, if he didnt move forward how could he link up with mount/bruno/rashford?
