Manchester United 2-3 Galatasaray |
Erik ten Hag, Chairman Manchester United Just one change from the league defeat at home to Crystal Palace last weekend.
Facundo Bestre, the 21-year-old Uruguayan winger, has been replaced by Hannibal Mejbri.
Ten Hag has said several times before that the reason for Hannibal’s dismissal was that the Tunisian national team midfielder would bring “energy” to the team and the midfield.
Anthony, who recently returned to training with the team and was named on the bench.
This match was started by Andre Onana (Cameroon), Sofiane Amrabat (Morocco), and Hannibal Mejbri (Tunisia), three African players.
This is the first time Manchester United has sent three players from Africa to start in the Champions League, according to a report by Opta.
Rasmus Hoglund scored two goals in this match. In terms of personal appearance, he is the best player in Manchester United.
This means that in the first two Champions League matches against the Red Devils, he has already scored 3 goals.
This equates to Hoylund now being the top scorer in the Champions League this season.
His confidence is growing and he is starting to get along with his teammates. He is strong, has pace, breaks the ball well, finds space and moves well.
That was the only good thing about United in this match.
It’s something Manchester United fans complain about in almost every match, every week: simple mistakes made by players.
It is true that every human being on this planet can make mistakes. There is no one who has never made a mistake.
But in football yes…you can make mistakes. But you shouldn’t make frequent and easy mistakes like these.
The first goal United conceded came from Diogo Dalot’s lax defence.
As for the ball in which the team missed a penalty kick, Andre Onana missed the ball, which became the starting point for the team to miss the penalty kick, even though Mauro Icardi committed a mistake.
This season, Manchester United have conceded 18 goals in their first 10 matches this season. (All competitions included) This is the most goals they have conceded after the first 10 matches since the 1966-67 season, when they conceded 20 goals that season.
It is difficult to shoot opponents but they concede goals easily to their opponents…. This is Manchester United now.
In fact, they have the best chance of bringing momentum back to the team. After a bad start to the season because they will be playing at Old Trafford in a row and 7 out of 8 matches will be at home (including the previous two matches against Palace and the last one against Gala Ayun Saray).
But it turns out they have now lost two games in a row to themselves.
The Red Devils have lost six of their first 10 games this season. (All items included) This is the first time since 1986.
There is no consistency.
It is easy to concede a goal.
It is difficult to score against your opponent
