The result was bad and the performance was disappointing but, for United fans, the worst part about Sunday'swas that there wasn't much of an indicator of the change that is coming under Erik ten Hag.
If things don't go right on the pitch immediately, you are more forgiving, but you would still expect to see some signs of how it will all come together, when everything does bed in. I am sure Ten Hag wanted them to play out more but they lost their way and going behind just made things even worse. Depending on what happens with Cristiano Ronaldo, who is not fully fit but came off the bench in the second half on Sunday, they could need a new striker too.
When you play a mis-placed pass inside your own half in front of 70,000 of your own fans at Old Trafford, it is very different. It takes a heck of a lot more courage to keep on doing it.
No surprise, it was the same players as last season doing the same things as last season.
Still starting with Fred and McTominay 😁
Sancho was not in his status
Or, “Man Utd a step too far for Ten Hag!”
