It'll be nice to see us press in games like this rather than sit back soak up pressure. We haven't pressed since van Gaal in 2016 which was more than 5 years ago.
Doesn’t sound like I’ve missed much. TBF it’s unrealistic to expect Carrick to tear up the blueprint with just 24 hours in charge. Holding out for a draw wouldn’t be terrible.
We need a top class coaching set up that really trains players. McT has stagnated in the time since Jose promoted him as a midfield battler, which was one of the positive contributions Jose made to the squad. But he’s just drifting since then. Bissaka, Greenwood, even Rashford: the stuff they obviously need to work on, they don’t seem to have been working on at all for three seasons.
I would have thought that playing Beek in central midfield would be a no-brainer after Watford. What is the fixation with Fred. I’m not convinced Fred is even PL quality, let alone United quality.
