🕵️♂️ Transcript:
and the game would finish 1 Manchester United held to a draw in amar’s first game so it’s just a point as it stands right now obviously Manchester United looking to climb up the table now that a new coach is in place well they’re up to 12th at the moment as it stands but there’s a lot of work to do for Ruben amarine that goes without saying and uh there’s a few questions to be asked of everything that we saw today as well I suppose one of them Al and I’ll come to you first on this is the threat up top and the need for a clinical Striker here at Manchester United what are your thoughts on that honestly when I evaluate this game Beyond whatever threat or lack thereof that Manchester United may have in the attack I’m far more concerned as to what’s going on on the other side honestly I looked at the back three today and it’s mrai dect Johnny Evans H 36y old Johnny Evans mrai the L Johnny Evans and it was a perfect start for Manchester United when you think that two minutes in you’re up one nothing and rash scores and and you getting the sort of work that you’re getting from a mat down the right hand side you think all right maybe maybe there is something and then as the game settled down and nip switch started to have some possession and some moments of transition and then you’re playing the ball over the top into areas where now that back three gets exposed then Leon the lab gets a sort of chance that he gets in front of Anana and Anana has to come up with a huge huge save it really is a wasted opportunity though from the lab and those spaces were available to I switch anytime they wanted it anytime they wanted to play that ball wide of the back three on the right or on the left it was always there and now you’re in isolation you have M mrai defending isolation which he’s not very good at and johonny Evans can’t really move so defending isolation is not a strength and the one leading them is Matias elect who has questions himself and so I understand that this is the way that I’m already place and this is his system and so on and so forth I will say that it switch down would have come into this game thinking a point is good for us after the game they may have thought you know what there was more for us in this match and I think that says enough or it says a lot and everything that you need to know about where Manchester United are right now what do you think Stevie because amarim said afterwards that he F his players were thinking too much during the game and that you could feel it I probably agree with them to be honest and I don’t think that should come as a surprise because basically you’re playing three and four at least players in positions that they’ve never played before so you are going to be thinking cuz you’re constantly wondering am I in the right spot and and for D and and Dio on on the on the wide areas as much as Ali’s talking about the back three the two of them it’s tough for them to figure out where where the starting position is because they know that the space in behind and so they end up going too deep and then amarine doesn’t want them to be playing they don’t want to play five at the back and so you saw Doo and Dio playing as fullbacks most of the time particularly the second part of the first half and and you see the first chance that the laap had that’s a long ball that Dio is is fighting for that’s where the center back should be that’s why you play three because one the outside back and go into that area where the hole is and cover it up and so clearly it’s about the starting positions so there’s no question they’re they’re all running around wondering where to be that’s that’s not a surprise we know he’s not going to change the formation he said as much he said it’s going to be his way and everybody has to learn to adapt to this so with that in mind with this formation for Manchester United what is he going to have to work on to make this work for him well Stevie is absolutely correct in highlighting the outside guys and their starting position and and to that point I say if indeed Ahad is further back and doo is further back the sort of domino effect of that is that once you regain possession these guys are no longer an option ahead of the ball so whatever transitions you may want to have with the speed of garnacho and the speed of rashford is no longer available to you from wide areas because those guys are back there they’re defending next to the back three and so it really limits what what they can do once they regain possession of the ball hence why their starting possession has to be much higher of the field but in order for that position and starting position to be higher of the field you have to have enough numbers in the Midfield to regain that possession of the ball and so then it becomes a question as to who the paing is and is the paring casmiro and ugar is the parent Cas it obviously it’s going to include ugar at some point as the starter and then probably camito maybe Erikson but regardless whoever is it that you’re talking about in that middle they’re going to have to cover a lot of ground and they’re going to have to win a lot of balls H it’s it’s a 343 that depends on those guys in the middle regaining possession of the ball and being able to cover the ground and we know that casmo is no longer able to do that and so it puts a whole lot of pressure on Manuel Lugar if indeed they play side by side that’s by the way that’s a paing that Amarin is going to have to figure out you know G is going to play who plays next to him will make a whole big of a difference in terms of how they regain position session in the middle third what about Marcus rashford is he going to continue to give him a run here as Center forward uh I would think so um you know the distance between rashford and hland there’s no question is pace and the fact that it’s going to take this team it’s going to take a few games to sort out as I said the starting positions and so that means that it’s going to be in my mind it’s going to be a lot of counterattacking and so rashford’s going to have to play up the middle cuz if you play Highland that’s not happening that means that means now somebody if you play Highland does that mean rashford doesn’t start if rashford starts that means he has to go to a wi position does that mean that then gacho doesn’t start but then gacho has to start you know going forward he’s the one player who seems to get himself in positions to get a strike at goal or to to to get the ball on a counter attack and if they do that that means somebody somebody further back isn’t playing is it Fernandez is it casemiro is it I mean so figuring out all these starting positions is so important partic not not just from a defensive point of view but from a an attacking point of view as well in terms of numbers there has to be some patience with him though right yeah absolutely yeah he he’ll take a point the manager will take a point listen as long as he doesn’t lose he’ll be he’ll he’ll he’ll for the next three four five games he’ll he’ll take picking up points while they’re learning to to play the system that he wants to play it just depends on how long it takes to to actually do it and the other question is are they capable of doing it which I guess is the bigger question and and and I think what you saw Illustrated today is that regardless of whether it’s ten Haag of amorin you have major issues structurally for this team in ter in terms of the talent that is available to you now that doesn’t excuse Eric T Haag and some of the decisions that he made now he long gone but in comes a new guy who’s supposed to be a hard property and he’s going to have a difficult time figuring out the structure and and and the organization and the starting positions it is going to take some time how much time is enough and how much time are we willing to give ruang Amarin before we start asking the questions the questions are remain the same who’s going to play in that back line who’s going to play in the middle who’s going to play up top that hasn’t been figured out because the players haven’t put together performances that would suggest I am a no doubter in this team I should be on the field all the time given my individual performances that’s not the case it’s very few players for Manchester United who can raise their hands and say you know what I’m a guy that you can trust you know that if there was one thing to take away from this United performance if you’re the coach nobody nobody said you need to be playing me in the next game [Music]
