Manchester United
As bad as Antony: Ten Hag must finally bin “shocking” Man Utd dud who was a 2/10 v NUFC- opinion.
As terrible as Antony, Ten Hag must eventually be a “shocking” Manchester United dud who was a two-tenths of a loss to the New York Football Club.At this point, it is reasonable to assume that Erik ten Hag’s time at Manchester United is running out.
During this season, the Dutchman has, without a doubt, been confronted with external factors that have impeded the development of the club; yet, the fact of the matter is that the results have not been satisfactory.After playing Galatasaray of Turkey to a hilarious 3-3 tie in the middle of the week, Manchester United looks like they are on the verge of being eliminated from the Champions League.
It was a result that exemplified their sloppy play in recent times, and the fact that they were defeated by Newcastle United by a score of 1-0 on Saturday evening only served to exacerbate their issues going forward.It would be impossible for this team to be any further removed from the world of Sir Alex Ferguson if they tried. Having a lack of a merciless streak in front of the goal is one thing, but the work rate is well below average. Let’s put it this way: this does not appear to be a team that is willing to fight for the badge.United’s worst player in the match against Newcastle
Do whatever you want. Over the course of this past weekend, there was no shortage of underperforming players wearing red at St. James’ Park.
It was, for example, along Diogo Dalot’s left side that Kieran Trippier was able to exploit in order to lay the ball on a plate for Anthony Gordon’s winner, despite the fact that the Portuguese were partially to blame for the defeat.
However, above all things, it is imperative that the distinct absence of threat and, in fact, desire on the part of some of those who are attacking be called into question.The previous Saturday, when they were playing Everton, it appeared as though everything had started to click again. On this particular instance, you would not have any reason to believe that Anthony Martial scored a goal that would enhance his confidence.The Frenchman was selected ahead of Rasmus Hojlund, but he did not even get a kick in the northeast. He left the field after 61 minutes, having taken only 17 touches, which is 36 fewer than Andre Onana, and making only eight passes that were accurate. This was a very stormy evening.Marcus Rashford, on the other hand, was perhaps much more problematic. Over the course of the previous season, the wide player was in outstanding form with the Red Devils, finishing with 30 goals in 56 matches. On the other hand, he has had a distinctly bad 2023/24 campaign up to this point, as he has only scored twice out of a total of 18 matches played. The fact that one of those strikes came from the penalty spot only served to make matters worse.Rashford’s troubles in recent times were exemplified by the outcome of the match against Newcastle. He was particularly criticized for his lack of effort and his inability to track back.
This was quickly brought to the attention of content producer Liam Canning, who stated that the England international was “genuinely shocking” in his performance against the Magpies.The reason for this is made abundantly evident when one considers him in comparison to the winner of the match. The 26-year-old player was taken out of the game by Ten Hag just after the hour mark. This occurred after he had completed only 65 percent of the 17 passes that he wanted to complete.As was the case with Martial, Rashford did not receive nearly as many touches as he should have, as he only received 22 during the evening. The fact that the Englishman did not receive a single shot is a factor that makes the situation much more dire.
Samuel Luckhurst, a correspondent for the Manchester Evening News, may have provided the finest summary of his performance when he wrote, “Fortunate to start and he was poor in attack and slack in defense, offering Wan-Bissaka no protection.” Should not have begun in the first place. That came as a result of the reporter giving him a poor match rating of two out of ten.Nonetheless, Luckhurst is absolutely right. Despite the fact that Antony was sitting on the bench, this seemed like the wrong decision. Despite the fact that the Brazilian has not yet contributed to the scoring of a single goal through this season, they have been just as dreadful as each other.
Both of them make very little contribution in the final third and have a difficult time catching up. It is impossible to find any kind of work rate or effort that could assist the squad in its defensive efforts. If Rashford, who earns 300 thousand pounds a week, was scoring goals, then this would probably be able to be ignored. However, it is not the case at all. The time has come for the number 10 player in the team to be handed a position on the bench.
