Manchester United 1-1 Fulham, Yoro scored his first goal of the season, B Fei s impetuous dream returns to the collapse of last season

Manchester United challenged Fulham away. Although he won the first goal in the league, Manchester United still did not win and only won one draw. This draw is obviously annoying because he once saw the shadow of last season: when you had the advantage in the first half and were very close to scoring, because of some problems, your three lines suddenly broke and were out of touch.

Manchester United relied on Mbeumo to take the corner kick and Yoro headed the ball to take the lead, but also conceded 1 goal because they could not block Fulham's targeted cross from the wing. In this game, Fulham even scored closer in the second half. And B Fee will undoubtedly become the focus of post-match torture, because his penalty kick is the core point of Manchester United's situation change.

First lineup: Amorin's position adjustment, brewing risks

Compared with the first round of the Premier League, Amorin made some personnel adjustments in this game, and Amade Diallo replaced Dalot's starting lineup. This is to use Casemiro to cover the back with Casemiro, allowing Mbeumo and Amade Diallo to attack as much as possible. However, this arrangement actually brews certain risks for Manchester United.

In this game, Manchester United used Mbeumo + Diallo + Yoro + Casemiro to partner on the right, B Fe + Cunya + Dorgu + Lukesha to partner on the left, and Mount and Cunya can be transferred at any time. Manchester United actually played a set of plays that strongly attacked the left and right sides. Before the substitution adjustment, 41% of Manchester United's offensives were launched from the left.

Goal from the backcourt: Find the frontcourt to fight for the second landing point

Manchester United did not pursue slow progress from the backcourt to the frontcourt too much, but tried to play faster and more directly, so goalkeeper Baindill did not make the ball short, but went long. As of the 66th minute of the game, 12 of Baindir's 20 passes were long passes, of which only three were successful.

This is obviously a pattern to crack the high position, and it is also to avoid Baindir's weakness of being bad at shooting. The picture above can be said to be a representative of Manchester United's goal from the backcourt. Three lines are pressed up and the three lines are kept tight. Manchester United's goal is not to win the first landing point, but to compete for the second landing point.

Baindir passed the ball directly in the first half, and Cunia almost scored this time. This is actually a reflection of this tactic. He directly used the goalkeeper to drive the ball, and the forward directly ran to the space behind the central defender, or the midfield behind him to fight for the second place.

If there is no way to directly grow the ball, then hand it over to the sideline center back, with the sideline center back Lukesha and Yoro directly connecting the two side and front midfielders Mbeumo and Mount (Cunya after the transfer). Manchester United's system began to have a bit of a systemic flavor, but the details were not very good. For example, this time, Doorgu suppressed the opponent's defender, and B Fei took back from the midfield position. At this time, Fulham's defense line was replaced and stared at people.

The players who are guarding Dorgu will be watching B Fee back and fill up the back midfielder to watch Dorgu. If B Fee passes faster, Dorgu will be more aggressive in running, and Dorgu will be able to and Mbeumo on the far side will have the chance to get the ball, which is a matter of detail. If the details are not done well, then there will be more subsequent problems.

Manchester United's conversion: Amad and Mbeumo's overlap on the right side

has talked about many issues before, and this game has appeared again, that is, the position overlap between Amad Diallo and Mbeumo. In the last game, many Manchester United bloggers discussed it on Twitter: Amad Diallo and Mbeumo are both good at cutting inward, and the running positions of the two often appear in the same position.

are also positioned on the strong and weak side. Look at Dorgu's position. Dorgu has always been standing on the side. This is a way to use width. Mbewumo and Amad always need to change positions and expand the width to the side. Unfortunately, this side is not done well.

I can understand Amorin's meaning. Manchester United's main attack on the left side, so Cunya or Mount in the center position must go to the left side to move, then Mbeummo on the right fills the space in the middle, and Amad interspersed in the ribs. For example, this attack in the picture below, Mount made a cross on the left, and Manchester United's person in the center position is Mbeummo, but Amad Diallo did not keep up.

Theory is one thing, but actual implementation is another. Many details of Manchester United have not done well in this game. However, before Manchester United received a penalty, Manchester United's offense did play more fiercely. This fast, vertical transmission and offensive mode once made Manchester United very close to scoring in the first half.

Manchester United passed the ball in the first half in 54 frontcourts, and there were many vertical attacks, while Fulham took more of the wings. Let's talk about this later.

Fulham's main attacker: Manchester United's ribs and the goal scored by B-fee

Fulham is not unpredictable. They have special tactical arrangements according to Manchester United's game habits last season and their first game to play Arsenal. First of all, we will play in Manchester United's triangle area, which is the triangle area of ​​Manchester United's midfielder + wingback + sideline and center back. Whenever possible, we can transfer the ball to this side when the frontcourt takes the ball, and the center will attack this area.

Fulham's goal to equalize the score comes from this mode. No matter how far post or near post, it's right to pass the ball to this area. This created many corner kick opportunities for Fulham. Fulham made 10 corner kicks throughout the game, and some corner kicks were actually close to scoring, while Manchester United goalkeeper Baindill seemed to be a little allergic to corner kicks.

Secondly, pay for B. B Fei likes to float balls at a distance, mainly blocking B Fei, and has a certain probability of getting the ball, thus forming a conversion attack. In the first half, B Fei once hesitated to get the ball, and after being intercepted by his opponent, he launched a quick counterattack. One of the turning points of the game: B Fee lost a penalty

Manchester United got a penalty in the first half. As a handsome guy, Mount successfully attracted the attention of Fulham players. Under Mount's temptation, he formed a hug in the penalty area, and the referee gave a penalty. The first penalty kicker in Manchester United and B, who has a relatively high penalty success rate, did not score.

Before this penalty, Manchester United dared not say that the offense was thriving, but at least it was very close to scoring. After losing the penalty, B Fee began to be impetuous, frequently made mistakes in the backcourt, and frequent problems with defensive interceptions. Manchester United began to give up the initiative, Fulham began to push up, and even formed more offenses than Manchester United at one point.

Before the end of the first half, Fulham formed 8 shots, two more times than Manchester United. The problem of disconnecting three lines of Manchester United appeared again, and he was no longer as close as the first half of the game, and he returned to last season overnight.

The second turning point of the game: Dalot replaced Amade

Amorin should have seen the overlapping positions of Mbeumo and Amade. In the 52nd minute of the game, he made a substitution adjustment, used Dalot to replace Amade as the right wingback, and replaced Casemiro who was ineffective in physical fitness. Manchester United intends to score goals in a way that is full attack and defense.

However, Manchester United's first goal was not a positional goal, but a corner kick. Mbeumo sent a penalty kick and Yoro scored a header, helping Manchester United score the first goal of the new season. Logically speaking, Manchester United scored a goal, and the players' psychological burden should be removed. Manchester United can play the ball honestly, but Manchester United is still very impetuous. So when Dalot made a mistake on this side and gave Fulham a goal to equalize the score, Manchester United could no longer grasp the situation of the game.

Game summary: Manchester United needs a midfielder

I don't know how to summarize this game. A game that can be won, but due to his own problems, it caused the loss in the second half. Even Fulham seems to be the side closer to the goal. Amorin doesn't know if he has seen it. In his 343 system, B can go to the front midfielder, but it is no longer suitable to put it in the 8th position.

The next game is the League Cup, and the opponent is not strong, Manchester United can rotate. If Amorin still has some ideas, then you can consider trying a system without B fees.
