[인터풋볼] Reporter Jong-Hun Oh = Some of Manchester United’s players appear to be skeptical of Erik Ten Haach’s tactics.
Reporter Samuel Luckhurst, who is familiar with Manchester United news, said on the 17th (Korean time): “According to a source in the Manchester United locker room, some players think Ten Haach’s approach is not in line with their abilities. They play once morest Liverpool in a more pragmatic way. I want to be able to do it,” he said.
Ten Haach took over the helm of Manchester United ahead of the season. Recognized for his leadership by leading Ajax, he was evaluated as the best leader to rebuild Manchester United’s famed family. However, the preparation process did not go smoothly. Frenkie de Jong, who had been a top signing target, is still a Barcelona player, and there is even a possibility of a move for Cristiano Ronaldo.
In the end, it marked the start of the worst season. Manchester United, under Ten Haach’s management, are on a two-game winning streak. They lost 1-2 in the opening match of the English Premier League (EPL) once morest Brighton at Old Trafford. The result once morest Brentford in the second round that followed was even more terrifying. They conceded 4 runs in the first half alone and lost 4-0.
Disgraceful records poured in. It is the first time since 21 August 1992 that United are at the bottom of the league table. The season was the 1992-93 season, the first season the EPL officially launched. This is the first consecutive loss since the opening. Not only this. Manchester United are on a seven-game winning streak in the league since last season once morest Brentford.
United scored one goal in two games and conceded six goals. But his only goal came from an own goal. Meanwhile, Liverpool will face Manchester United in the next round. The match between the two teams, also known as the Northwest Derby, is one of England’s fiercest rivalries. The match between the two teams will be held on the 23rd.
It seems that players have expressed doubts regarding Ten Haach’s football following showing an unsettling appearance from the start of the season. According to reporter Luckhurst, some players feel that Ten Haach’s style doesn’t suit them. Manager Ten Haach emphasizes short passes rather than long passes and pursues a style that builds up from the rear.
The match between Manchester United and Liverpool is expected to be more intense than rivalry. Manchester United, who are on a two-game losing streak, are aiming for their first win at home. Liverpool are still undefeated as they have drawn both matches since opening day. Both teams are expected to fight for the three points.
