30 thoughts on “The Tactical Failure Of Every Manchester United Manager”

  1. so in short united needs to have a window where they have to completely revamp their midfield irrespective of who the manager is
    they have been papering over the crack by buying wingers and strikers when they have goalscoring issues or buying defenders when they are conceding a lot of chances
    but midfield should be their utmost priority

  2. Doing something similar for Liverpool between Dalglish and klopp might be a interesting video, but the off field will be as important as the on field given the hicks era.

  3. If you know folks who don't think managers matter, simply use Manchester United as the prime example. There is no bigger downfall of a club with only 1 person leaving it

  4. Criticizing coaching tactics when every tactic has been applied to this team to try to make them relevant is comical. Sooner or later you have to accept its not the coaching. It's the players. Relegation inbound.

  5. It’s all about recruitment. The managers United have had are not bad managers. Yes, they could’ve made better decisions but it’s all about the players we’re bringing in and getting the wrong profile of players based on the manager we have or philosophy we want to build on. The fact that we’re going into this season with Casemiro, Mainoo, Bruno, and Ugarte as our midfield 4 is a clear indication of our poor recruitment yet again

  6. ……but haven't the players any sense, forget the manager, responsibility. They are not babies, do you honesty think Cantona would have put up with all these silly, crap tactics? I blame the players, they were too busy obeying orders and not asserting authority through god given talent to save not the club but their enormous wages. No character, all about the finances and it showed, the wages never changed win, lose or draw.

    No character, heart or determination to win at all costs.

    Merceneries

    No need to buy 105,000,00 Pogba who clearly only cared about wages before the club,
    that is just one example, there were many, whatever happened to grass roots?

    New manager, no more Manchester United youth team crossovers.

    It has just become all about the money and like brands,
    they are not always more superior than the standard.

  7. To quote Brian Clough football is a simple game

    You need at least one top class defender – united haven't had this since rio

    You need at least one top class striker

    You need a coach that can galvanize a team – who love and also fear him – and make it easy for them

    Mainoo is top class how can he not play

    Sancho quality player – do some coaching and get these young men firing

  8. I just have one name in my head and maybe Im wrong. Isnt Frenky de Jong what they are looking for? I guess Barca won't let him go etc, but I remember there was talk in the past ManU wanted him,

  9. The current Arsenal team would be deadly in the rangnik formation, everyone from gk to the wingers are good on the ball in terms of passing, two world class pivots in rice and zubimendi, two operable tens in odegaard and saka, and two great CFS with diffrent roles who complement each other in Havertz and Gyokeres. Cbs are fast, dominant, keeper is of sweeper type, fullbacks solid in attack and defence with possible inversion.

  10. It’s scary how so much has changed yet the fundamental problems are still the same.

    We’re still till this day:

    1. Too reliant on individual brilliance

    2. Unable to break deep blocks

    3. Unable to play out of pressure

    4. Unwilling to invest properly in midfield

    5. Unwilling to commit to a true overhaul .

    I only see Amorim becoming victim of this insanely toxic club because we still failed to buy a midfielder of high technical quality.

  11. It's Ferguson's fault. He left a shit team that he'd just managed to drag to the title by the scruff of its neck and then said sayonara & good luck! Never left a team in good health, a reasonable succession plan, chose the least appropriate manager to try and carry on the legacy. Amongst a million other errors. Either genius or idiot, can't tell which.

  12. I feel like the whole story is: Man U never had a proper number 6 who was press resistant, good at distribution, and good at reading the game defensively, so they moved their creative 8/10 deeper and then can’t win games. It’s the story of Bruno, McTominay, and Pogba as well as a few others (unfortunately I could see Marino joining that list if he doesn’t leave). A true number 6 allows for so much tactical flexibility that one could likely play any one of the styles that any of the past coaches had reasonably well.

  13. wow, i feel you were really unfair to casemiro. his first season under ten hag was pretty good and while he lacks speed (and youth) to play a super high pressing game, accusing him os not being technically good on the ball and incapable of distributing well just seems… wrong. he has good long passes, great positioning awareness (defensively and offensively) and always makes himself available for his teammates in good passing lanes. also, it's very funny to me that someone who was good enough to be a starter in real madrid in five champions league tittles, all of a sudden (from one season to the next) is not good enough for manchester united or to play alongside the overrated mainoo and mount. teams with much less talent in the midfield play much better than united. united lack a good club culture, good overarching football project from the academy to the senior male team, lacks a vision, lacks consistent training thru many years, lacks competitive mentality, lacks good chemistry between players and collective play. what it doesn't lack is talent in the midfield. arsenal does much better with partey, liverpool did well with henderson and fabinho. newcastle does better with joelington (very limited player technically and tacticly), inter milan got to a champions league final with çalhanoğlu, zieliński and 36 yo mkhitaryan for gods sake. united squad is and has always been more than enough to finish 3rd or 4th every season and reach champions league quarterfinals
