Can Ten Hag Do The Impossible?! Man United vs Arsenal Tactical Preview

Manchester United take on Arsenal tomorrow and with the recent performances and results, it is not looking good for United. Arsenal are still on the hunt for their first Premier League title in 20 years, and beating us is a necessity if they want to win it. I can't see it being too hard for them. But here is how I think we can beat them, if possible...

[@phil7892]

These previews have just become less and less hopeful as the seasons went on, should be one of the games of the season but this team has just made us all devoid of optimism

[@yester9037]

The cm of Partey and Rice vs whoever ten hag choses is such a huge mismatch

[@mustaphadamba8999]

😂😂😂 God have mercy on us.

[@degeautdfanfirst]

​@@mustaphadamba8999yet win we lose they go ape after the manager tommorow

[@davidublin]

Ambrat for Anthony and hope it's not a trashing 😂😂

[@directorme6669]

If I was ETH I would go as pragmatic as possible. Problem is, no trusted CBs and also only Mainoo, Eriksen and Amrabat are available for midfield selection( DEEP LYING MIDFIELDERS) because Casemiro is playing CB The pragmatism is to prevent thrashing not to help win a point 😂

[@thesmithsnerd]

It wouldn’t surprise me if United took points off Arsenal. Also wouldn’t surprise me if Arsenal ran riot. Just folly to even try and make predictions.

[@thetrappedchatterbox7941]

Absolutely. That's bottom of the table mentality, but it's correct.

[@thesmithsnerd]

@@thetrappedchatterbox7941 not sure how me not being able to call a United performance in advance, counts as a “mentality”.

[@5on-of-Fire]

💯

[@regworld1167]

I will come back to see your miserable mug, after Manure United get battered by Arsenal on Sunday.😢

[@grahamlaird8816]

McTominay centre half as he has played there before for Scotland, perhaps Rashford and Martial on the wings with Rasmus up top, Bruno, Kobbi, Casemiro in the middle

[@spikeybaby1735]

MARTIAL???? I hope I never see him in a Utd shirt ever again!

[@Mike20216]

Just counting down the days when the season ends and I’ve been doing that for months

[@lensip2]

If Casimiro starts in defense, ETH is done for me.

[@renatovannoortwyck3302]

Wouldn't even play Hojlund against Arsenal, one can predict another 0 shots on target game for him. Both Garnacho and Anthony once close to the box will go for goal rather than pass anyway. I'd play a 4 4 2 and have an extra body in midfield.

[@user-zt6up2cg1v]

Arsenal beat palace 5-0, palace beat us 4-0 so Arsenal will beat us 9-0

[@tineshwaren7427]

The math sounds about right

[@SteMilne]

Enhanced odds of 50/1... Still don't fancy it 💀

[@Elezium]

With the injuries (Mount back on that list) and how we're playing, I fully expect Arsenal to bend us over and not even offer a reacharound...

[@edwinandrade7540]

We should just play all our tall players and put everyone on the goal line. 😂

[@1977Suspiria]

With that backline? HA! Absolutely not.

[@SeanBotha]

The same person that said 2nd in Pl is not good enough is fine going into a game not expecting to win. Howsen is such a 2 faced hypocrite

[@degeautdfanfirst]

​@@SeanBothano idea what you on about 2nd is failure..utd have win every match but not reality.7th 6th 6th 6th 7th 5th 8th is the reality last 10 years

[@kbreslin7289]

It's almost worth playing Amrabat, Evans and Casemiro as a back 3, wingbacks. Fernandes, Mainoo, McTominey; Hojlund, Garnacho Just no wingers... Diallo, Rashford & Antony as backup forwards.

[@thesmithsnerd]

@@kbreslin7289ah, the “8-0 home defeat” formation

[@slashssnakepit4444]

@@degeautdfanfirstthink you’ll find the reality of the last 10 years is actually 3,6,2,3,6,2,6,5,4,7. That’s before I even get to the part where you counted to 7 then ran out of fingers 🤣🤔🤷‍♂️ Must be the inbreeding

[@elleonken7599]

What are the chances of MU repeating what they did against LIV earlier this season, when everyone was fearing the worst going to that match?

[@sidharthnair3641]

LFC absolutely battered you lot that game too. Just kept missing chance after chance. Arsenal won't be that kind if they keep getting those chances.

[@fearlessformidableferociou8623]

3-1 United

[@ishownudes]

@@sidharthnair3641 so you didnt watch the match then? United were in complete control of the 2nd half and in extra time, Liverpool only played good in the 1st half and only for the Elliot goal

[@Chumpslayer99]

Followed the parimatch link, signed up, deposited…. No howson offer, now signed up and no longer a new customer….. absolutely shegged.

[@aubreymokgotle259]

Id rather play Amad and Antony in the wings. Garnacho has this thing of not passing to Hojlund and losing the ball. Also rather play Amrabat at CB with Casemiro in CDM with Mainoo & Bruno in 10.

[@ryanstubbs_]

Not enough is said about the fact Partey is still being played by them and the ZERO mention of it by the media is disgusting. On the game, I hate these nearly as much as Liverpool. Losing to these ruins my whole week but sadly I just can’t see where we hurt them. ETH will stick arrogantly to his “style of play” and we’ll get overrun in midfield and dominated. This could be the 4/5-0 we thought we were going to get off Liverpool.

[@martysmith2851]

Rashford, Bruno, McT etc are back, and as bad as they can be, they more often turn up against the bigger teams and especially Arsenal at Old Trafford. As bad as United are, I believe we will get a draw on Sunday and Arsenal bottle the title race

[@bryngefferies7530]

This London rivals clash where Utd vs Arsenal should be another pragmatic approach to create an home win as long as ETH choose an Offensive team to play defensive to deal with the aggressive press. Team selection is: Onana, WanBa, Varane, Evans, Dalot, Armabat, Mainoo, Bruno, Rashford, Hojlund, Antony. Subs: Bayindir, Heaton, Kambwala, Eriksen, McTominay, Casemiro, Gore, Collyer, Ogunneye, Forson, Gernacho & Diallo! If he had chosen this team their was a possibility we can win this game!

[@jonathangallagher3137]

Poor choice starting Anthony

[@ishownudes]

varane and rashford are injured lil bud and amrabat is shit and why antony when you wanted to make a better XI

[@fishfingers4483]

This guy going on like he’s got arteta figured out LOL. Arsenal are going to destroy united tomorrow and it’s the easiest 3 points in the run in

[@user-ty7nz4gi6w]

like v Villa!!! The best team you've had won't win a title or a CL. sorry, YOU'VE NEVER WON A CL. Couldn't beat Villa has cost you the title, even we beat Villa, home and away!!!

[@rainbowroom2010]

I’d play three goalkeepers…it might keep the score down 🤣

[@Julian-gib]

Defence is gone, but seriously Need to try something different in attack, would like to see Hojlund play up front with Wheatley 442 or something

[@joshb1137]

If United stop Arsenal winning the league and beat City in the cup final it will be hilarious.

[@samuelratchford862]

That enjoy sounded super optimistic Stephen.

[@GR33NZ]

Rather he saves the impossible for the final , this is a game I don’t care if we lose rather them win then city

[@Nadeem146]

This game is more winnable than the final, don't even watch the final we are going to get abused

[@keithstitt9532]

Legs and discipline with a packed midfield required tomorrow. ETH will probably do the same old,same old wide open game. Concede 10-25 shots and we haven't a hope.

[@susanlivelysue]

Mc T, Rashy, and Bruno all trained and EtH said it would depend on how today goes

[@user-w29-vfwh59vd]

At the point we are now with 3 games left in the league, let's give the young lads a chance. Start Amass and Kingdon! We've got nothing to lose in the league anymore. Start Kingdon for these 3 league games and ease in Licha with 15, 25, 30 minutes in each of these games to get him fit for the final. Play Amass instead of AWB who is not a LB anyway and who's been awful as a makeshift LB. We need the energy of a young lad to match Saka. With Kingdon on, Amrabat can play as CDM to stop Odegaard and Rice. Dalot can take Trossard

[@RealBeanz]

Rather than Casemiro over and over again at centre half, why don't we try and shut them out using a back 5... put 2 kids in there either side of Evans who is a ball playing defender... like try something else other than the same shit that aint working game after game... in front of the back 5 have Mainoo and Casemiro, Bruno in front of them and two split strikers of Garnacho and Hojlund and try play narrow with them it should block off the middle and the half spaces they operate in and on the counter you have one of the strikers touch whatever wing we decide to play down with Bruno supporting as a second striker to whoever is in the middle...

[@fitness_101]

Manchester United -3 Arsenal -1 Arsenal are under pressure especially after city won today against Fulham. In history this the point where arsenal give away the cup .

[@RegzalTG]

I'm fine with losing, especially if Fulham wins their game, but I also don't appreciate humiliation 😢

[@degeautdfanfirst]

Never lose to anyone don't care about others if arsenal fail win league that's their problem

[@steve13191]

do the impossible, breaking records, achieve the unthinkable, beyond your wildest dreams are what ten hag does. unfortunately those arent positive for us. i wouldnt rule out a 6-1 or 7-0 loss. tragic eric at the wheel 👍🏻

[@martysmith2851]

Surely there is a defender he can bring in from the res4rves who can play their natural position, I would not start Casemiro there again after the disastrous performances

[@stevenhardware7404]

Most United fans don’t want United to win today. City winning 4 in a row with 115 charges pending is criminal.

[@patrickherbert_]

This is the game we absolutely don't need right now. Arsenal could wipe us with the floor if the players play half as bad as in the Palace game. Ste, I really do fear for us and Ten Hag. Another spanking and he could be gone before even the FA cup.

[@JakeDriver]

Absolutely hate myself for saying this but we've been in the theme of killing records this season. It genuinely would not surprise me if we saw Arsenal get an absolute mammoth win here. Shipped 4 against Palace and they are firmly mid table. Arsenal could double that with ease...

[@christfoo7]

Support me Howson My prediction United 6 Arsenal 3 Hojlund 2 Rashford 2 Bruno 2 United will Rise up GGMU

[@flashlightproductionsauttp5612]

Ten Hag will want to get McTominay as fit as possible, ready for the final. So if he's fit enough, expect him to play some part in the game.

[@SimpForLatinas]

Casemiro will be twisted and turned, mark my words

[@harryrussell6801]

Huge shout that

[@niallgibbons1120]

Come on ETH you got this ☺️

[@rajatmahajan88]

I think ETH can do the impossible .. he can give us our worst loss in club’s history.

[@phillipworts5092]

McT in defense. Amrabat at CDM

[@abuhamza1970]

I actually don’t want Utd to win. If we win and other results go our way, then we may be in a for a shout for 5th place. If that happens, there’s more of a chance that ETH will stay and we’ll just have more of the same for another year. Would rather concentrate on the league for next year, rebuild, restore, revive for the following season with a decent style, system and strength.

[@jiggersotoole7823]

Arsenal will be desperate for 3 points so we somehow have to exploit that fact and set up accordingly.....try and keep some possession , frustrate them, and pounce with Nacho and Anthony's speed..... Not giving possession away cheap, or rushing to get forward is key.

[@markbell9135]

Doesn’t really matter what line up we go with right now does it

[@crysflake]

Will amad finally get a start ?

[@davetaylor4741]

Oh please not that set up. I know we are short of fit players. But that is a joke. I would only play three. Possibly four of them. There must be something else. Our only chance is board the goal up so they can't score. Not looking forward to waking up to the score of this game. Arsenal have won a few games this year by big margins. Could be another.

[@noorhadi6022]

Ten Gag will make arsenal fans laugh at us

[@foadghavami2004]

This is gonna be a 5-0, 6-1 game, they are gearing up to pay back for the 8-2 loss. Our player first have to start running at least just run ffs

[@wtfamiactuallyright1823]

I'd put McT in defence, if he's even fit. This may end being the most painful game in living memory, for me. 😒

[@mettycarpenter3267]

Please try starting Amad over Antony

[@garethpriestley9545]

I want to see utd change formation and play sensibly

[@markbrady8724]

Don’t you think we should play mctominay centrehalf!?

[@lukekingsland4813]

50 to 1 in a two horse race? Id have some of that

[@mirogeorgiev1156]

I am city fan , glory glory man united you can do it reds come on help the neighbours

[@HaronHaron-sp2ri]

What no no are you joking no Casemiro play defender he can because he’s not good defender please don’t do that if you do we lost 8-0

[@ste4392]

I don't think he can no, but I'll be watching anyway 😅

[@Cold_Logic]

Just remember it's 11 vs 11, even though it'll look like 9 vs 12

[@SteveDavies-wo9xw]

Hi Steve, I've been following for a while & feel I need to contact with my thoughts! Why is the season nearly over - we only played three games!!! Why will Ten Hag NOT use the youngsters when the experienced player won't follow his instructions? It's been the worst season ever (including when we got relegated). This team are abunch of spoilt kids. It's affecting Kobbie, who's now starting doing the same as the others, sadly. If this continues he'll turn into another lazy, spoilt brat!

[@martysmith2851]

IF United win the FA Cup then get Europa League. If they dont, they dont

[@QuanDanOfficial]

Winning is not an option for Manchester United. Just play a 8-1-1 formation to reduce the goals conceded. 😢

[@nsd_respect]

No.

[@franciscarabini7660]

Bit wordy

[@ahmedk2405]

Am not expecting much from United in this game.

[@Carlos19716]

No

[@VinYo]

Cmon united. Let's be the party spoilers this time around

[@phillipworts5092]

Casimiro needs to sit on the bench

[@gamerbeans7445]

Garnacho Only going to be a match winner because he refuses to pass to hojlund (same as Anthony). He's more likely to score from his shot than Anthony. I've got hojlund to score our 1st goal. Because I'm praying these 2 idiots will actually cross or pass it to hojlund. Even Onana passed to hojlund. Haters can't blame Rashy for our poor performances the last 2 games. As he's not played through injury.

[@phillipworts5092]

Amad needs to start

[@stegray1422]

Willy kambwala ??

[@evanbourlotos1951]

U23s +Bruno

[@kudatesa6256]

we need rashford to win this game.

[@TehProBandit]

Lol rashford needs to be sold. End of.

[@CEO786]

Definite walk over 6-0 to arsenal.

[@Ronal259]

It hurts me to say but… I think we lose 0:8 tomorrow 🥺 Best attack in the country against the worst defense, worst attack against the best defense in the country. Arsenal need the goals to better their GD against City, we have no chance! I say we are down by 4 on the first 30 minutes.

[@jayb3489]

I don't know if I want us to win, certainly if Fulham get any kind of result today

[@hakeemahmed2874]

So you're team is to Stop Arsenal winning the tittle? You will switch the tv first half

[@candyquahogmarshmallow8257]

For the title: I wouldn't be surprised if we beat Arsenal. Ten Hag does well against these clubs but fails against mid (and lower) table teams.

[@nikeboy009]

No Antony, absolute waste.

[@Charlie_Nice]

Tenn hagg can’t even beat palace . So no

[@SosasCountrysideMeditations]

1-5

[@loguk8970]

I think we will win 3-1.

[@hansegiltaanevig7500]

We have to win the FA cup to get EL place. The loser gets nothing, but no 6 in PL gets into EL and no 7 gets into conference leauge. I.e. we probably have to win the FA cup to get play in Europe as no 8 in PL gets nothing.

[@bigdolshtv5707]

I told gold bridge fans are mad the players ten hag has bought are terrible mount keeps getting injured n never does good Casemiro legs are gone Ericsson can’t catch nobody in midfield . Are worst problem he keep using anothony who’s got no goals no assist the whole season maybe 3 100 million that’s shocking onana cost us the champions league group stage sancho in the final these are the facts so if ur own Manu ur team would u give ten hag more money knowing he’s gonna keep using anothony and onana who are costing Manu we need to replace them u see olise palace batter Manu 4-0 just be honest with urself it’s like bumping ur head into brick wall again again u can see the problem n yes made a mistake trying to replace dea hea that cost our whole season because onana can’t save shots we don’t need a ball playing keeper we need a shot stopper The truth is onana and anothony have destroyed most of Manu season by being poor on the pitch so are if u true Manu supporter and pundits do something about it
