Manchester United played Luton earlier this weekend and what a game it was. Even though the opposition was Luton, the expectations of United this season continued to drop down, however in this game United showed everyone what they can really do. United controlled possession, they counter attacked amazingly and pressed extremely well. Rasmus Højlund has not scored his first premier league goal yet but the effort he portrays on the pitch is exactly what United need. Many questioned the price tag on the forward from Denmark, however he gives nothing but 110% effort on the pitch and that is something not only everyone can admire but respect. Rasmus was extremely unlucky as a brilliant save by Kaminski leaves his premier league goal tally still at 0. Rasmus is no way at fault, he’s not getting enough service and it clearly shows at the club. The same thing happened with Cristiano Ronaldo (One of the biggest legends in United history and one of if not, the greatest player ever) as he was saving United left, right and centre. Clearest evidence of this was the game against Tottenham last season, Man United won 3-2 due to a Cristiano Ronaldo hattrick. If you saw that game, you’d know luck had nothing to do with it and that the brilliance of Cristiano Ronaldo single handily won that match with a historic hattrick of glorious goals. The ‘problem’ of Cristiano Ronaldo stems from the manager Erik Ten Hag as his tactics continue to be questioned. In conclusion, even though there were huge positives in the game and United came away with the win, it’s got to be a lot better as the difficulty of the Premier League far exceeds Luton so hopefully we as fans can regain our confidence in the team and the manager.
For a team that has found so much glory in the historic Champions League, United currently have a record of 1 win and 3 losses. I cannot exclaim how poor this is. We have 1 win and 3 losses. It’s ridiculous and it shouldn’t be the case at all. I have watched every single Champions League fixture that United have played so far and it is truly upsetting to watch. The last match United played in the UCL really questioned my love for the club. The game ended 4-3 to Copenhagen. United had a 2-goal lead led by Rasmus Højlund and everything was looking great. The goals were scored beautifully, and things were actually starting to look up. Unfortunately for United, that’s when things go down, every time. It all started with an extremely controversial red card for Marcus Rashford which I believe to be poor decision as the same tackle was committed by Liverpool on the weekend and they only received a yellow card. It sounds crazy, but there is an obvious distain for United ...
