Manchester United's weakness is that they are always unable to maintain their lead because they are always easily pressed after getting a quick goal. The defense was quite problematic in the match against Tottenham because the players were unable to close down the opponent's movement space and even the two goals that were scored could have been anticipated if Richarlison was guarded well and did not easily head the ball. The second goal was much more ridiculous because it was conceded without any guard from the defender so Bentancur easily scored.
Just as I said before Manchester United's main obstacle was defense if we check the standings and goal records then we will see Manchester conceding more than scoring goal 24 scored and 29 conceded, this is a concrete proof that their defense is very bad and has never happened before. Ten Hag and management must take quick action if they still want to compete in the top 5 there is still time to fix it. Manchester United have gone through 5 matches with 2 defeats 2 draws and one win nothing can be relied upon in this record while Chelsea who previously played badly were now come back with satisfying results.
It's gladdens me to see that partnership of Lisandro Martinez and Rapheal Varane back, though Manchester United have to invest in a defender a younger one than Rapheal Varane in the long run.. Manchester United lacked that Lisandro Martinez vibes, did you see his in between the line pass to link up Bruno Fernandez from the defense? They've finally had their man back. They'll fix things up before the next game they'll play.
Give Tottenham Hotspur their flowers you get me? They played well and also Timo Werner did well on his debut, I'd rate him a seven over ten though for his performance.
