new signings will take time to gel with the rest of the squad, the exception being fernandes where he made an immediate impact and became the talisman. OGS is trying to recreate the SAF formula but he has trouble accommodating pogba in the formation. if he picks pogba it means he has to pick 2 DMC to cover for him because pogba cannot defend. man u may be better off trading pogba for an established DMC come january rather than letting him go for free
in hindsight, OGS could have used 4-4-2 against villa, with the wingers making direct runs, pinning the wingbacks or exploiting the flanks, and the two strikers making runs between the defenders. pogba and fred operated on the left-central midfield, their weaknesses overloaded shaw
what is worrying:
- man u become chronically slow off the blocks since OGS became permanent mgr, they only start to wake up after conceding a goal
- man u is like jekyll and hyde, exciting football in some matches and frustrating disjointed play in others, such inconsistency is baffling
- OGS and the coaches have not found a way to break teams who park the bus, and still rigid with tactics/formations.
- we are improving with attacking set pieces but defensive set pieces are still facepalm
- OGS doesn't throw caution into the wind to try and get a result
- OGS waited too long to bring on subs
- OGS doesn't drop players who performed poorly and doesn't give chances to others to show their worth, wtf???
