[@hugoenzo2444]

There are 3 problems with Amarabat receiving the ball there from Onana to build out from the back is that: 1- Onana and Casemiro's positions being disrupted by Havertz's slanted run, forcing him to play it to Arsenal's RHS that has a man advantage 2- Declan Rice is elite at setting and executing these pressing traps, we have seen that exact scenario happen like 6-7 different times throughout the season(Him and Odegaard step off the pivots and Saka marks in between the CB and the fullback). Rice would be on you trying to get the ball off you before Onana even attempts the pass 3- Evans not making an easier passing option open to make Onana's life easier. Arsenal this season have been OK in their in possession build up play but their OOP hybrid pressing is elite and most of the credit for that should be given to Havertz, Rice and Odegaard. Love the vids James

[@tynn443]

but this game Amrabat and Mainoo were good at escaping pressing and retain the ball anyway, that's looking like a midfield Ten Hag was seeking this season

[@hugoenzo2444]

@@tynn443 yes but the united coaching staff probably warned them about this specific pressing trap that Arsenal have done this whole season. Most teams just go long in that instance and push their line up higher soon after since Arsenal's behemoth of a backline wins most of their aerial duels but in this instance Casemiro didnt push the line which led to an easy turnover and transition.

[@punctualwizard]

Yep, Ten Hag would prefer to have Licha and Wily fit for Wembley, and the time tables didn’t work out to rush anyone back here. All that said, we (who have notably conceded a metric fuck tonne of chances) limited one of the best attacks in the prem to 11 shots - I think 8 or 9 of which occurred in the first half Edit: to this, despite some glaring mistakes, Amrabat was crucial imo

Remember the injured players your saying were available or played when Arsenal defeated them 3:1 at the Emirates..So it doesn’t matter if they are there or not ,still Arsenal could have won may be by more goals,coz this game ended 1:0 coz Arsenal players were told not to pressure Man U in the 2nd half..Just protect that lead was the message and if there is a counter take risk

[@Jamesel23]

AWB as a cb? His positional awareness is terrible and awful in the air. Only have 2 fit fullbacks and you want to play one at cb… just because Casemiro is a bad cb it doesn’t mean there’s a better option.

[@punctualwizard]

Exactly this. Playing AWB at CB is pure FIFA/FM stuff

[@enzoxvimav]

Not only that, man said it wouldn't be difficult for Erikson to stop Trossard because Arsenal have not been great down the left. Then man also said the shout from Kobbie Mainoo to Onana to play it wrong was wrong and Onana should have passed to Amrabat. Amrabat had Rice on him, Rice covers so much space in literal micro seconds and any one thats watched us all season would be able to tell u that, the pass to Amrabat was the more dangerous pass, Casemiro played Kai on and that was the biggest error there.

[@punctualwizard]

@@enzoxvimavthe biggest blunder is Casemiro not having the positional IQ that most prem CBs have. Didn’t understand the urgency in keeping the line, leading to all this mess from the start. Onana should’ve never been put in the position to make the pass

[@punctualwizard]

And *if* we play AWB at CB, who is playing one of the fullback roles? Amrabat maybe? Then we start with Eriksen in midfield and have less legs and longer build up?

Wan bissaka is great at 1 on 1 defending, but he is not much better than this version of casemiro in terms of positioning and defensive awarness needed for cb

[@jacksonsmith7269]

⁠@@sharkfinn7234But that doesn’t work either, because then who plays right back? Dalot and Wan Bissacka are the only fit fullbacks available… surely it is better to play one player out of position than two, and Eriksen has no legs available to play right back. That suggestion makes no sense too

Manchester United needs a significant update on and off the pitch. The number of injuries and deadwood at the club is ridiculous, with Old Trafford being a Theatre of Wet Dreams... Literally!

[@bonusexitus2263]

I understand what you are saying but there is really no clear option, AWB is def not a CB, maybe Dalot RB, AWB CB, Evans CB, Amrabat LB, Casemiro CDM is better but honestly I doubt it. AWB is actually pretty poor at running back he loves a good jog back over a sprint, he isn't great under pressure, he's a bit clumsy and while he is an incredible tackler, positionally he's one of the worst in the team.

[@martinelligabriel4821]

[@eazyollie9370]

Reminds me of 20/21 season when Liverpools defence was decimated by injuries. Klopp spent too long that season playing Fabinho and Henderson at CB. It just didnt work. Liverpool only started getting results towards the end of the season when Klopp started playing Phillips and Rhys Williams. Just use a CB from the academy.

Agreed. Weakening the midfield by shifting midfielders into defence to cover injuries never works. Admittedly Casemiro is off the boil but playing him at CB is creating 2problems. As you say, Klopp did it in 20/21 and Liverpool paid a heavy price

[@tatesherman8273]

I was really disappointed with the performance by Arsenal. Can’t tell if it’s just that these guys are exhausted, but the desire to win duels high up the pitch and the press in general was just not there. Arteta’s delay in making subs is endlessly frustrating. Saka was not impacting the game at all and as soon as Jesus was introduced he was making things happen.

[@barbarycorsair8473]

At 7.50 you are explaining that Cassimero is stranded but hes not in my book, he's placing himself between Harvetz and Rice which you seemed to forget about. At the same time Evans is doing the same as Cassimero, stopping the ball being played to Rice. Both man utd players positioning suggest that they're were happy for Harvetz to carry on running to the near post. Wan bissaka lost his man and the pass from Havertz to Trossard was a last minute decision from him. Love the show thanks 👍

Don't play long unless you recognize your teammates are set in place to recover in case the long pass gets turned over.

[@deanrwatson]

Context - From the Gary Neville interview with Ten Hag, he (EtH) stated he wasn't taking short term actions like altering formations etc when he was charged by the owners to implement a long term plan regarding a style of play, tactic and general ethos. I assume this is why he didn't move to a back three, or promote an academy player into the first XI (which might have been unfair on that kid I suppose). Hence why Casemiro was played there. Whether there is a long term plan, is debatable. Whether he (Manager) should prioritise that and sacrifice short term points is debatable. There are so many levels to how Manchester United are currently being operated and in the wider context have been run in last decade. The roof once again pouring in water, those pictures are screened around the world as a visual metaphor of a club that is more than a bit lost at the moment. Fix the roof, i.e. fix the fundamentals. Agree, and in a certain way, feel sorry for Casemiro, to mix sporting metaphors, he looks like a fighter out on his feet, the humane thing to have done was to pull him out of the firing line. Whether it is on sacrifice of a longer plan or Ten Hags ego or pride, it is Casemiro's reputation that has been dented in the last few games.

[@benitojayadas1876]

Awb's spatial awareness are really not upto mark to be a cb, he is good at sliding tackle but he let's soo many players run in behind because of lack of scanning , the next question is who would play rb - we tried a lot of options with having cm in wing backs positions during starting of season and fucked up

[@redmed10]

The linesman made more effort to get up the pitch than casrmiro

[@benscott406]

I get Casemiro is not right for CB but if you look at that squad with Kambwala coming back from injury and not able to play 90, I’m not sure who else could have played there. Possibly Dalot at CB and then an academy player as left or right back. Big risk to play academy CB

[@ACBandit]

I get that he's not a centre back, but who should he have played instead?

[@kalleandersson916]

I'm not sure I want to blame Evans so much... He controls his opponents to the best of his ability, but Casemiro simply doesn't measure up. With a natural center-back beside him, Evans' plan would probably have succeeded.

[@ogrog_4869]

More often than not I find myself agreeing with what you say… however, AWB at cb is an atrocious call. His defensive awareness is appalling and would get exposed at every opportunity

[@CoconutJewce]

I appreciate you not shitting on Ten Hag like so many people love to do; his system worked well but a defensive calamity cost the team. If we had a fully fit team (or only missing one player, like Arsenal), then I genuinely believe we would've trounced Arsenal given how flat they were for most of the game. AWB at CB is a very odd shout. For one, his positional awareness and marking is absolutely terrible (see the goal); he wouldn't be any better than Casemiro imo. Two, we don't have anyone else to play RB as AWB is our only other fit FB. If you put one of the midfielders back there, then they'd be just as effective as playing Casemiro at CB or AWB at LB. Maybe play Antony at LB or Amass, idk, but ETH has very few options. lol

I would have liked to see Kambwala start but an inexperienced 19 year old just back from an injury against Arsenal probably wouldn't have gone well either.

Evans is in no mans land, AWB and Dalot arent open. Mainoo is calling for the clearance. Onana should have knocked that ball out of existence. The clearance is poor, its found White and obviously Casemiro has had a disaster. Very simply, United arent up to the proper standard across the board.

Arsenal fan here. I'm with you on this. It was a comedy of errors however you look at it. Still I think, Onana to Cassimero its an option if you have a keeper that can play that sort of pass. We had much better chances to kill the game. Onana made a few good saves and our keeper didn't have much to do. That's the whole difference. Man utd were toothless and what was it of their players slipping many times?

A better technical team will make a good team to work for nothing. That's what arsenal did to Manchester united.

You cannot play awb at CB, wouldn’t even be able to pretend to play out the back

[@freepalestine.23]

I remember the days when we used to scram at arsenal to shoot.. And stop passing the ball into the Net.. And now we're doing that every other game😂 literally passing it and tapping it into the net. Wenger Ball.

[@pedropierre9594]

The goal starts when Onana punts the ball short, lack of cohesion punished justly by Arsenal

We scored because White/Havertz/Leo exploited Casemiro/AWB/Evans We won because of our defense and United have 0 attacking threat

Good analysis but to say Arsenal haven't been great for a while? We destroyed Chelsea only three weeks ago
