Part 3/8:
Consistency has become a central issue for Manchester United. There has been a constant reshuffling of players and tactics, which has hindered the team’s ability to find a stable formation. Analysts noted that while United had a higher expected goals (XG) total compared to Bournemouth, they lacked the clinical finishing needed to capitalize on their opportunities. Although the team has shown potential for improvement, the frequent transitions in system and personnel have led to disappointing results.
Defensive weaknesses have emerged prominently, particularly in set-piece scenarios, where they have been alarmingly poor. This has raised concerns over organizational structure and leadership on the field, suggesting that United may be missing vital components necessary for success.
