Manchester United can be hit by insults at the start of the season. But at this point, the ‘Red Devils’ have the right to talk about the chances of winning the Premier League.
Manchester United successfully overthrew Leeds United with a convincing score, 6-2. In that match, the best potential that Manchester United could show on the field seemed to be entirely present.
The ability to attack quickly, understanding between players in finding space, to goals with a well-planned attack scheme are beautifully presented at Old Trafford. Manchester United can smile not only because they won, but because of the way they won.
With an additional three points, Manchester United now have 26 points and one game in hand. Along with the poor results of several top teams, Manchester United are now racing to third place in the Premier League standings.
They have 26 points, one point away from Leicester City and five points behind Liverpool. Even if you consider Manchester United still have one more game left, the ‘Red Devils’ could only be two points away from ‘The Reds’.
The current situation can certainly be greeted with great joy by Manchester United and their supporters, as well as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer who continues to be doubted and underestimated.
Solskjaer, for the moment, can laugh with joy and joy that he’s back on the right track. Solskjaer currently ex0cels other managers like Jose Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti who are considered far more experienced.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was able to bring Manchester United unbeaten in the last seven matches in the Premier League, with a record of six wins and one draw.
It’s really ridiculous to see Manchester United’s record at Old Trafford this season. Before the match against Leeds United, Manchester United were only able to win one win from the six home matches they played in the Premier League.
The victory was obtained when they fought the team from the relegation zone, West Bromwich Albion through a 1-0 score. The only goal that was created was a penalty from Bruno Fernandes.
Apart from that, Old Trafford has become a killing ground for Manchester United. Starting from Crystal Palace, Tottenham Hotspur, and Arsenal to take home three points from the headquarters of the ‘Red Devils’ pride.
Meanwhile, the other two teams, Chelsea and Manchester City, can go home with one point in hand armed with a draw. Before the duel against Leeds, Manchester United were only able to score three goals in the six games they played at Old Trafford.
With a row of big teams that they have hosted at Old Trafford, Manchester United will certainly lose a lot because in the second half they have to undergo a series of tough away matches to the teams they have hosted before such as Arsenal, Tottenham, Manchester City and Chelsea. Especially if the spectator regulations are more relaxed in the second half of the competition.
In this strange situation, either Manchester United should be grateful or even have to be angry because they actually reaped good results in a series of away games at the start of the season. Manchester United are unbeaten in their initial six away games this season, a record that is certainly spectacular.
In continuing the hunt for the Premier League trophy, Manchester United must of course be able to be fierce at home and continue their good performances during away games.
After appearing spectacularly in the match against Leeds, Manchester United is waiting for a busy schedule until the end of the year. In the middle of this week, Manchester United must travel to Everton’s headquarters for the League Cup quarter-finals.
With Solskjaer’s condition still without a trophy at Manchester United, the ‘Red Devils’ cannot view the League Cup competition as a second caste competition. Moreover, they are only three wins away from becoming champions and a number of big teams like Liverpool and Chelsea have been eliminated.
Considering the League Cup final at the February title, Manchester United could get boost of confidence if they won the trophy. The trophy will later be useful to motivate Man Utd’s steps in other competitions, both domestically and in Europe.
Because of this, Solskjaer will most likely show the best squad in the match against Everton.
This then invites the risk of fatigue because Manchester United have to undergo three Premier League matches in the span of one week, namely against Leicester City (26/12) at the King Power Stadium, and two home matches against Wolverhampton Wanderers (29/12) and Aston Villa (29/12). 1/1).
The Boxing Day match will play an important role in Manchester United’s status entering the second half of this season’s competition. The reason is, the difference in points in the top 10 is still fairly tight and demands consistency from each team.
But let Manchester United’s position be discussed at the beginning of January. Because for now, at this point, Manchester United are in a decent condition to have faith, spread optimism, and even declare their arrogance to become Premier League champions this season.
