What has changed at Manchester United?

Manchester United have gone from a disastrous start – their worst for 29 years, sitting bottom of the table – to beat the current Premier League leaders – Arsenal– and placed fifth, ahead of Chelsea Y Liverpool. It just is three points separate them from leadership. Many things have happened in recent weeks on and off the pitch, and far from increasing the losing streak, they have caused a 180 degree turn already Erik Ten Hag He knows how to take advantage of it like no one else.

but, What exactly has changed during this time? They actually have almost everything against them: the possible voluntary removal of Cristiano Ronaldothe signatures without planning and they didn’t just come either, it was possible sale of the club with fans asking for March of the owners and information that pointed out from the United Kingdom that the Dutch technician would not have locker room support As for the game model. All this seems to have been forgotten, though CR7 he is seen more involved in holding a secondary role. And the results are starting to come.

The truth is Have a Hag started with a game idea that seemed to fail to develop into this template. The positional game, offensive possession: the total Dutch school football. Something that worked and was very good at Ajax but that at United brought him many headaches.

A few weeks ago, the Daily Mail offered some data already they explained clearly what brought about a change in this team, and after the victory over Liverpool on the third day of the match (2-1), United run another 19 kilometers and they registered up to 100 more sprints than the previous day, where Brentford lost 4-0. They had too less property that Liverpool, against the match against the ‘toffees’ where, despite the defeat, they registered maximum ownership percentage than the enemy.

Since then we can see a Manchester United radically different in the first two days. A team very vertical, more oblivious to possession and attacking position, to continue to dominate areas and be strong in front of goal. A more typical style of English football than the other Have a Hag I’m used to it in the Netherlands.

But to implement a model as dangerous as it is effective you need to have key pieces to complete the ‘red devil’ puzzle. And the squad that the coach has now is probably not the most suitable to carry it out, but it is more effective play in this modelinstead of the other Have a Hag It was in my mind at the beginning of the season. And for that, just need to see how Anthony -recent signing from Ajax- has adapted very well, completing his first target on his debut just 35 minutes into the game.

The change of central Harry Maguire-Lisandro Martinez a Raphael Varane-Lisandro Martinez has developed more force in its own area, and the integration of Tyrell Malacia on the left side he also helped the defense to be more supported, with a strong defensive player but also with a good offensive output.

in the middle of the field Christian Eriksen He managed to get close to his best level and that is to celebrate after the scare he received in the last European Championship. a player of creation, connoisseur of the Premier, with excellent attacking skills and the ability to find the perfect moment and situation to start an offensive move. All this along with a Bruno Fernandes not bound. Together they dominated United with massive vertical superiority which meant that, despite Arsenal dominating the match, they could do little to impede United’s offensive superiority.

Second, Anthony it fits like a glove Have a Hag to realize this game model, along with a Marcus Rashford plugged in, has the ability to accompany and finish transitions with his excellent speed and check clearance, and has Jadon Sancho penetrate down the left wing, creating spaces behind the rival defence, adding more speed and overflow.

In Cristiano Ronaldo Y harry maguire relegated to the background, this United begins to carburize and Have a Hag Looks like you hit the right key. We will see if he can maintain the level and the results in such an offensive and dangerous game model, but what is clear is that they are in a sweet moment, with four straight winspointing to the top of the ranking.
