Man United and the story of 'old wine in new bottles'

Thanh Hung DNUM_CIZAJZCACE 08:33

Coach Erik ten Hag's team had another unsuccessful match when they were held to a draw by Twente at the "Theater of Dreams".

Hosting Twente at Old Trafford is a great opportunity for Man United to win all 3 points on the opening day of the Europa League. Because in all aspects, the team from the Netherlands is not a worthy opponent of the "Red Devils".

Unfortunately, despite fielding almost their strongest lineup,Manchester United still had to be helpless before the stubbornness of the players on Twente's side. With this 1-1 draw, coach Erik ten Hag and his team made the Manucians sink into disappointment again.

Thus, since the beginning of the season, Man United's form has been unstable with unnecessary losses of points. In addition to the recent draw with Twente, the Old Trafford team also "stumbled" against Brighton & Hove Albion (1-2), Liverpool (0-3) and Crystal Palace (0-0).

Overall, Man United's current playing style has not changed positively compared to last season. The appearance of Ruud van Nistelrooy on the coaching bench and players like Matthijs de Ligt, Noussair Mazraoui or Joshua Zirkzee, have only helped the "red devils" change in quantity.

Objectively speaking, the attack is the most disappointing part. While rookie Joshua Zirkzee is adapting to the new environment, Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford have lost their form to a disastrous level, wasting a series of good opportunities.

If coach Erik ten Hag does not quickly fix the existing shortcomings, Man United will find it difficult to compete with other opponents. Do not forget that in the next 4 rounds of the Premier League, they will have to face Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, Brentford and West Ham United.

In case Man United do not achieve positive results, coach Erik ten Hag will face the risk of being fired. Perhaps, many Manucians are waiting for that to happen. Simply because they have run out of patience with the Dutch strategist./.
