Playing without Harry Maguire gladdens me. He has got to be the worst defender in the history of defenders that has played for Manchester United. Infact, it decodes a direct message to INEOS on how they should get Erik ten Hag new set of defender's. Lisandro Martinez would be back for the community shield on Saturday but he cannot do it alone. Starting a new season without depth and Injured players will improve nothing about the result from last season.
In the past we have seen that Harry Maguire made a lot of mistakes, and in several important matches Harry Maguire's mistakes cost Manchester United matches. This is why most Manchester United fans don't like Harry Maguire. But Harry Maguire is one of coach Ten Hag's favorite players. So we will definitely see Harry Maguire in Manchester United's squad next season. Ten Hag should have taken the necessary steps to strengthen its defenses. Because Manchester United conceded 58 goals in 38 matches last season. Manchester United's defense is quite weak.
Hopefully the media not blind to see that now. Rasmus Hojlund has a good replacement, Joshua Zirkzee can come in for him, I'm not worried.
Joshua Zirkzee is a good enough player. But will he be a worthy replacement for Hojlund? I don't think so. Joshua Zirkzee played last season at Bologna. Adapting to the Premier League is a bit time-consuming. It is unlikely that he will fit into Manchester United's squad very quickly. But if Joshua Zirkzee can quickly adapt himself to Manchester United's players then he will surely become a worthy replacement for Hojlund.
Liverpool did well same with Manchester United but they seized the chances they had yesterday. Manchester United has player's to sell and also players who shouldn't be used in the first team no more. In conclusion, Dalot, Bruno Fernandez, Kobbie Mainoo, Joshua Zirkzee, and Garnacho are yet to join the rest of thr lads.
There are still many weaknesses in Manchester United's squad. And I would say coach Ten Hag has yet to take the necessary steps to strengthen his squad. We don't see good performances from Manchester United players in friendly matches. I don't even see the possibility of this team doing well next season. Manchester United cannot be in the top four of the table.
