What is the best explanation for this United loss yesterday with a poor performance no striker and removing your chances of getting a goal, Bruno Fernandes was the only player who can give United a chance to score and Erik ten Heg wasn't seeing it because he wanted to make a sub that would produce goals at the last minute, meanwhile he was reducing his chances of getting a goal. Good thing the Brighton coach was wise enough to bring in players that can hustle up the ball and make a last minute striker. The game wasn't interesting starting from the first half but when it became fun was towards the closing part of the game. This shows that Erik ten Heg doesn't have what it takes to pull Man UTD out of pressure, no tactics or whatsoever and he can't be the man for the Red Devils.
From last season too where Erik Ten Hag had no tactics at all to rely on into the match so that Manchester United always lost more often even with a fairly narrow score. Actually there are some pretty good players in the Manchester United team, but all of them cannot be maximized well by Erik Ten Hag and I hope that doesn't happen again this season. But in yesterday's match, the team still reflected the old way of playing, so there were several opportunities that the Manchester United players could not take advantage of.
After previously Manchester United performed impressively against Fulham, but now their main problem is recurring with the defense not being able to focus until the end of the match, Manchester United squad in the last few seasons is actually quite good and many of the players even have star status, but what's  we can see now that it is beyond all of our expectations when the quality and performance of star players cannot be maximized by ten hag at this time, i think ten hag does not want to ever learn from the experience of previous matches , even though they were able to win over fulham in the previous match but it seems It was clear in that match that they actually needed a pure striker, but instead Ten Hag continued to rely on midfielders and wing strikers who lacked finishing ability.

I think if from the start of the match Ten Hag had played a pure striker in the match against Brighton and played Garnacho as a supporter for the striker then maybe we would have seen a different end result now, but that's Ten Hag who has always been more concerned with his ego than changing his playing philosophy so far.
