Results MU 1-6 Tottenham: Defenders dreamed of sleeping, ‘Red Devils’ defeated at Old Trafford | International soccer

Caution on 2 wings

After a disappointing loss to Crystal Palace on match day, MU won the next 3 away games, including 2 wins against Brighton. The Norwegian coach emphasized: “The results at the beginning of the season will always affect the mood and put the spirits in a group of players, our club, our fans, the media.”

The victory brings a positive feeling, but the way “Red Devils” won has not really satisfied their fans. In the game against Tottenham, the attacking power of Tottenham’s defenders can hurt MU if coach Solskjaer does not consider adjusting tactics. He prefers to use a 4-2-3-1 scheme with Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood acting on the flanks. It’s a flexible system to attack, but not all forwards are comfortable when asked to defend, so MU’s full-backs can be vulnerable.

“What is revenge for?”

Tottenham defenders respect the threat of their opponents, but also try to push MU deep into the home field to reveal errors on defense. Coach José Mourinho has signed two formidable offensive full-backs, Matt Doherty and Sergio Reguilon. Right-back Doherty likes to break at 16m50 and has had six touches in the penalty area this season, just behind Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Lucas Moura.

Ben Davies, Reguilon’s competitor, made 13 crosses in the “Spurs” first three Premier League games. Whoever chooses coach Mourinho, MU will have to defend better tonight in large areas.

In addition to the rather boring matches at the start of the season, Tottenham have had resounding victories with the score 5-2, 3-1 and 7-2. However, coach Mourinho insisted that he did not want to mention the rematch when he marched with Tottenham to Old Traffod to meet the old team.
