Kobbie Mainoo exemplifies one of two 'big problems' for Man Utd under Ten Hag
Jamie Carragher provided Kobbie Mainoo to highlight one of two “beefy concerns” wearing the Machester United mechanism under Erik 10 Hag this season.
United have challenged 20+ vaccinations in 12 Premier League arcades since Ten Hag joined the bar in 2022, twin that of Individual Municipal and Liverpool under Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp.
Ten Hag’s side have viewed 16 or more vaccinations against them on 14 festivals this season singly, a tally rivalled single by Sheffield United and Luton in the apex flight.
Analysing United’s defending on Monday Night Football, Carragher annunciated Ten Hag’s tactics are “unobtainable” to execute.
Carragher annunciated: “Over the last few weeks, Manchester United have been in extensive kind yet still the underlying numbers have been actually bad.
“They’ve been inadequately privileged, so we’re not chatting around them now just because they wasted to Fulham.
“It’s around functionality. They defend prefer a team I’ve never viewed before. They prefer to press high wearing a deep block.

Carragher annunciated: “I’ve picked clips against Fulham, yet I could have picked clips from wherein they’ve won arcades prefer against Aston Vacation abode. It’s still unmodified worry.
“I want to highlight a worry from the inadequately kick-off. If I highlight Kobbie Mainoo, this is not a criticism of him, it’s more of what are his instructions before the gallery?
“He’s ambiguous if he have to be peeking after the clutching midfielder or watching the Definitely no 10. He’s recorded in between.
“It’s proper from the kick-off. You have to realize your project from kick-off. That’s down to the coaching subordinate.
“You can surf through the beefy worry after that had just 20 secs into the gallery against Fulham. It’s been the worry for Manchester United with one voice season.
“They’ve proven they’re a bad side at handling counter-attacks. They’ve got zero pace at the earlier and they’ve got a lack of legs in midfield.”
Carragher added: “Another beefy worry for them is once they’ve got the sphere. Some humans insurance claim there’s zero patterns of play wearing Manchester United.
“What’s their philosophy? I tell you one of the factors why there’s zero patterns of play and another reason why they render consumption done on the counter-assail… Sift at the postures the players detect themselves in once Raphael Varane is on the sphere.
“You extensive visual attractions wherein the proper-earlier is [Diogo Dalot] and he can’t fetch a enact. Mainoo is on the last line. His position can’t be proper. Bruno Fernandes, your Definitely no 10 is tinkering prefer a demonstrator, and on the other side, Victor Lindelof can’t fetch the sphere.
“It leads to a entrust and how innumerable times have you viewed Manchester United players possessing to dashed 40 yards earlier to their own impulse this season?
“Sift at the ones that are sprinting. The ones that took upward underhanded postures. Dalot, Mainoo, Bruno Fernandes and Lindelof. They’re sprinting 30, 40, 50 yards 5 or 6 times in a gallery – therefore why they render consumption so innumerable injuries in a gallery.
“With Fulham’s amiable impulse, we surf through that Marcus Rashford won’t dashed while Harry Maguire and Christian Eriksen can’t dashed. That’s a astronomical worry for them.”
