da betano casino: [ad_pod ]An inability to break teams down. A lack of desire. No leadership on the field. And no defensive solidarity either. These four things basically sum up Manchester United’s campaign.More specifically, it was probably the first of those aforementioned things that United have struggled with all season.You look at the way in which Liverpool have Naby Keita taking the ball forward and looking to make things happen.Then you have Manchester City and their wealth of talented players such as Kevin De Bruyne, David Silva and Bernardo Silva, who are experts are breaking the lines and threading passes through to the forwards.The Flying Pig unleashes fury on De Gea, Young, Sanchez and Pogba in the funniest player ratings ever in the video below…Who have United got? Nemanja Matic? Scott McTominay? Absolutely not. Paul Pogba maybe? But who makes good runs up top for him to find? Barely anyone.Of course, this is a weightless argument so far with no statistical data, so take a look at this.
This table shows that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side are actually recording their lowest amount of passes per 90 minutes that ‘break the lines’ since records began. Ouch.
The Red Devils would be bottom of this graphic showing just how often Europe’s elite break the lines were it not for Juventus, who can probably be exempt from criticism given the fact they are serial title winners and are set up with a solid defensive foundation in a system which relies more on crosses than threading passes through.
United cannot be forgiven for similar reasons, because they do not do either of those things.
The 20-time Premier League champions look stale, and never seem to look like scoring when they have taken to the field in recent weeks.
There are a lot of issues at Old Trafford right now, but it is evidently clear from the table above that United need to sign an out-and-out playmaker to get them on the front foot and disorganise opposition defences.
