The 5-0 defeat against the visiting team Liverpool revealed all of the coach's leadership abilities.Coach Ole Solskjaer. If coach Jurgen Klopp had not instructed his players to "take it easy", the score could have been even higher because Ole Solskjaer and his players were disoriented and outnumbered.

No more homework

MU's recent victories have been due more to individual efforts than to creating a good attacking game. Ole Solskjaer failed to read MU's weaknesses from the 4-2 loss to Leicester and previous matches. Coach Brendan Rodgers arranged the team in a 3-4-1-2 formation and asked Leicester players to play gegenpressing, constantly besieging MU from the home field. They have put pressure on Man Utd 260 times, the most recorded in a Premier League match this season.

Coach Jurgen Klopp is originally from Germany, the origin of the gegenpressing tactic, a German-based football term, according to which “gegen” in German means “to resist, to counter”. This style of play was also explained by former German player, Coach Juergen Klinsmann as “to win the ball back immediately to attack”. Its principle is that within 5 seconds of losing control, the players must try their best to win the ball back at all costs.

If they fail, the players must immediately switch to a defensive formation. If they do win the ball, they must attack the gap that the opponent has just attacked. When coach Brendan Rodgers has successfully applied it, there is no reason why coach Jurgen Klopp should not "set a trap" right at Old Trafford.

Solskjaer's tactics were terrible this match. But Man Utd's players were also too superficial, which led to this situation. Look at the way Greenwood fought for the ball perfunctorily, forcing Wan-Bissaka to jump up, then center-back Victor Lindelof had to move aside, leaving many gaps in the middle of MU.All three midfielders in the 4-2-3-1 formation, playing behind Ronaldo, shared the same superficiality and the two central midfielders Fred and Mc Tominay could not handle the defensive duties.

In Man Utd's first goal, when Luke Shaw was put in a 1 vs 3 situationSalah had 3 options to pass the ball, into the penalty area, to Keita, Robertson or Alexander-Arnold, so it would be surprising if MU did not concede a goal.With a high formation and no players capable of counter-attacking, the Red Devils were easily trapped by Liverpool.

Ole Solskjaer has met the necessary and sufficient conditions to receive the decision to fire. A weak defeat was recorded in the Old Trafford record in front of former MU stars and the respected Sir Alex. In addition to losing heavily and receiving 6 yellow cards, 1 red card, they also could not score an honorary goal. More importantly, the defeat pushed MU down to 7th place and the possibility of a ticket to the Champions League next season is threatened.

The sufficient condition is that both coach Zidane and Conte are excited to take over the hot seat at MU. Both are free and have expressed their willingness to take over MU with clear commitments to professional achievements. Meanwhile, the compensation for dismissalSolskjaer and his assistants are only about 10 million pounds, a numbernot too expensive for the owners of Old Trafford. What they are wondering is that MU's next 3 matches will all be against heavyweight opponents Tottenham (away 30/10), Alantan (away 3/11) and Man City (home 6/11).

The Guardian reported that MU's director of training, Richard Arnold, canceled all appointments on Monday (October 25) to meet with club president Joel Glazer about the fate of coach Ole. Even if the situation does not improve, Ole Solskjaer will have to leave without finishing 3 matches.
