Epic winning for Manchester United and their gradually climbing further on the table, they sits 8th position on the table and aiming to recording good points in forthcoming EPL games to cover for their poor results in previous games this season. I've noticed about the suddenly improvements of Maguire performance on the pitch, he's keen on winning back his spot in defendlines of Manchester United. Erik Ten Hag pick Harry Maguire to start the game against Sheffield United and he didn't record any mistakes, rather he sticks to the appropriate stats of impressing every Red Devils supporters with his timing tackles and forming a defense wall against the opposition at Bramall Lane.
Maguire’s performance was superb, i had this season always been calling for him to get a nod in the picking other. Maguire last season was a disaster and when a player is having a form, a continuous run of games Starting will be a bad for him. So what helped Maguire more was the fact that he has been released off the captaincy duties which reduces the attention it’s Carries and also him been dropped to the bench was a very smart move by Ten Hag. Getting Benched will make a player wants to do more and this Time he might learn from his mistakes. Also been on the bench will reduce the pressure from the media.
This is also what Rashford needs to be able to regain his confidence back again, he needs to sit some games on the bench.
The amount of criticism directed at Maguire has made a difference and improved the performance he has shown in recent matches and in today's match we must also praise his performance because he has improved in the last few matches he has played.
On the other hand, I will praise MacTominay again in this match because he seems to have gotten a good injection in the 2 matches he has played in the last 2 weeks after previously scoring a Brace last week in today's match he also played very well with his opening goal. It's just that the attacking line still can't take advantage of opportunities well. Hojlund is still too hasty in completing the opportunity so that the opportunity is wasted. I think for Hojlund and Rashford must be given input so that they are calmer because some of the opportunities Hojlund had in this match were wasted even though they could be converted into goals.
