Even though Manchester United is often criticized for their less than consistent performances, it seems they are doing a good job by recording 5 wins with the highest points. When compared with other teams such as Liverpool and Manchester City, the difference is only small, but at least Manchester United have had better results in some of these matches. Apart from that, it is a fact that Manchester United had an easy match against a team that they should have been able to beat and that is why they got the highest points in this result compared to other teams. Another fact is that they are still in 6th position so far, it is undeniable and Erik ten Hag still has a long way to go to shorten the difference in points in the standings from his competitors.
Although Manchester United managed to get better points than other teams in that record but still, Manchester United is currently still outside of the top five in the Premier League standings. Also, thefact that Manchester United still have a 4 point gap with Aston Villa who are currently in 5th place in the Premier League standings. Therefore, I think such a record still does not make Manchester United easy to enter the top5 and that way, then atleast Manchester United still do not have good consistency at this moment. Because anyway, if Manchester United have good results and consistency, then of course Manchester United have been in the top five at this time, but the fact is not the case.
Getting more points didn't mean it's better. Manchester united has not yet faced hard fixtures. that's the main reason why MU got better points than another club. It must be noted that if the hard fixtures will be starting very soon.
I expect manchester united to lose a lot of points in these fixtures. The players of manchester united are consistently performing bad at this time. I don't see even a little improvement that is happening in the club.
MU keeps play worse than before. I can't even imagine MU to face the strong club like city. The game against chelsea will come next month and i expect another surprise to come from manchester united soon.
Mu may be playing the game passively compared with chelsea. Let's see how MU will be anticipating the hard fixtures that will come soon.
