Manchester United beat Burnley 3-2, with three changes leading to the first victory in the league, and two shortcomings still restricting Manchester United

In the third round of the Premier League, Manchester United finally won the first goal and the first victory in the league. Manchester United defeated the newly promoted Burnley 3-2 at home. There are several key points before this game: Manchester United has not won the new season and Manchester United has not scored goals (the previous goals are owned by the goal), and this game hopes to open the door to victory and the goal account.

Casemiro made an own goal from Burnley, Mbeumo scored his first goal of the new season (1 in the League Cup, and B Fee scored his first penalty in the new season. Burnley fell behind 2 degrees and equalized 2 degrees. Manchester United relied on B Fee's penalty kick to defeat his opponent. Manchester United made three changes in this game, but Manchester United also had their own problems, which led to the inability to continue to suppress their opponents in the future.

Starting lineup: Continue to have no striker, Mount becomes the key

This is the third round of the Premier League. Amorin only made an adjustment on the starting list, replacing Dorgu with Dalot, Amade Diallo + Mbeoumo continued to partner on the right, Yoro + De Rigt + Lukesha continued to partner with the three central defenders, Dalot assumed more responsibility for the left winger, and he also assisted Mbeoumo with a cross from the bottom, scoring the first goal of the Manchester United League (the first two goals were owned by the goal).

Casemiro + B Fee is partnered with two midfielders, and the forward trident is still Mbeumo + Cunya + Mount. The key to this system is: the ball rights distribution in the midfield, the ball rights given to Mount in this game, and the ball rights given to Lukesha + B Fee in the backcourt. Manchester United also played a game with good tactical discipline.

One of the changes in Manchester United: clear responsibilities between front and back courts

Mount played his best performance since playing for Manchester United, and gave Mbeumo two transfers, creating a one-on-one opportunity for Mbeumo, and hit the goal frame with one shot. Manchester United took the advantage of the scene in the first half and formed 15 shot opportunities. Mount should remember his first result. Why did

Mount perform well? Because the ball rights in the frontcourt belong to Mount, no one competes for the ball rights with Mount. You can look at the hot topics of Mount and B Fee. You should clearly find out the responsibilities of the two. The picture below is the hot topics of B Fee and Mount when Manchester United drew with Fulham in the last round of Premier League draw with Fulham. You should be able to easily compare the differences between the two.

When B fee no longer squeezes Mount's position, Mount will play more freely. Mount's performance benefited from several points: First, when Manchester United scored a goal in the backcourt, Dalot would press on and take Burnley's right back Kyle Walker away. B Fee attracted the attention of the midfielder, and Mount got more room to retreat to get the ball.

Therefore, Mount got more opportunities to transfer the ball. When Manchester United's middle lane is not strong enough, it is important to create strength between the two sides. When Manchester United's two sides can be connected, it is easier to mobilize the opponent's defense. In the average position map below, you will see the change more intuitively. The position of Casemiro + B Fee is fixed, and Mount takes the ball in the frontcourt, making it easier to play. In the first half, Manchester United's player with the most passes in the frontcourt was Mount.

Manchester United's change 2: Return to the routine of transferring the strength and weakness side

Many opportunities in this game are formed by transferring the strength and weakness side. I will first show you the position map of Manchester United's pass into the penalty area in the first half, passing the ball to the penalty area 16 times, either from the left to the right or from the right to the left.

From the position map of the shot, you can also see this routine. In the 73rd minute of the game, Manchester United completed 19 shots and scored 2 goals in the middle, both goals that were very close to the goal. I have talked about Manchester United's low goal efficiency, which is related to too many long shots, because it is difficult for Manchester United to enter the penalty area, but after more transfers on the strong and weak sides, Manchester United's shooting threatened a little more.

Among them, Mount moved to the right twice, creating one-on-one opportunities for Mbeumo or a one-on-one opportunity to fight the goalkeeper, which is extremely rare for Manchester United, because Manchester United does not need the winger to advance to the outside of the penalty area to shoot, but receive the ball in an open position and make minor adjustments to shoot.

Amade Diallo almost scored an empty goal, although it comes from counterattacks, Manchester United's frontcourt pass can find an open position and players can run to an open position. This is already very rare. This should have been a basic skill, but it has become a rare scene for Manchester United. What has Manchester United become like in recent years?

Manchester United's third change: Cunha's persistence in the middle lane

Cunha serves as the center. Although he was injured after only 31 minutes of playing, his contribution to Manchester United's offensive end is immeasurable. First of all, he did not squeeze the ball space of Mbewumo and Mount. He kept trying to help suppress the central defender in the middle. Because he was in the middle, Mbewumo and Mount transferred the ball to each other.

Every player of Manchester United defends his own affairs, without too complicated transfers or too complicated short pass penetration, but a kind of involvement, passing and echo of big openings and closings, allowing Manchester United to perform well in the first half. In the first half, Manchester United won 15 shots and nearly scored 6 times, while Burnley only had 2 shots.

Hidden dangers for Manchester United: The position of the back midfielder is very fatal

Although Burnley only had two shots in the first half, one of their attacks should sound the alarm for Manchester United. The opponent's attack between Manchester United's two lines is threatening. When Burnley's center forward suppresses Manchester United's central defender and can complete the cross from the wing, the back midfielder will easily miss the person.

So, former Manchester United young player Hannibal Mebrey got a very good open shot opportunity, but he used too much force and directly knocked away. This attack should have sounded the alarm for Manchester United, but Manchester United did not learn a lesson.

Burnley's second equalization goal came from this model, which was to use Manchester United's midfielder to equalize the score by taking advantage of the corner kick. Another problem with Manchester United is that the back line has different ideas. You can take a look at Burnley's first equalizer goal. When Burnley made a cross from the wing, Manchester United obviously was not ready to retreat, so that Burnley's players could easily score in the middle.

Burnley once scored an offside goal, which sounded the alarm for Manchester United, but Manchester United still did not wake up. So, back to the starting point of the question, why was Burnley able to score 2 goals in the second half? The core point: After Cunha was injured and Mount was injured, Manchester United's pressing intensity dropped by a level.

You should know that Manchester United had used the strength and weakness to transfer the opponent's defense line to panting, and his physical fitness had obviously declined significantly, but this situation still occurred in Manchester United, which can only be said to be his own problem. Maynu replaced Mount, and Maynu had stronger ball control ability, but the ability to transfer balls and pressing strength decreased significantly. When Manchester United conceded the ball for the first time, Maynu watched from the backcourt.

Manchester United's key to winning: the problem of 2 penalty kicks

Manchester United won 2 penalty kicks in this game, and was blown away by VAR once, and the other penalty kick was confirmed by VAR. The first penalty kick that was blown away might have been Manchester United's goal to change the progress of the game, but the referee thought it was a reasonable confrontation.

The second penalty kick was Amade Diallo who broke into the penalty area and was knocked down by his opponent without the ball. This time there should be no problem. The core issue is that Manchester United won three Premier League games in the new season, got three penalty shots, and was blown away one, B paid lost one, and B paid scored the last one, helping Manchester United win the first victory in the new season of the Premier League.

The core issue of continuous ball-shots is that Manchester United dares to enter the penalty area one-on-one, dares to enter the penalty area. After all, you need to enter the penalty area, and you need to have physical confrontation with your opponent, so you have a chance to have a ball.

Match Summary: The first win of the new season is not stable

Played 3 Premier League games in the new season, and Manchester United finally scored 3 points from the newly promoted Burnley, leading 2 times and equalized by the opponent, relying on the final goal to defeat his opponent. In fact, Manchester United should have won the game very early because Manchester United's strong and weak side transfer created enough opportunities, and Burnley's defense was not good.

Therefore, Manchester United's first victory is actually not stable enough, but a victory is more important than anything else. What Manchester United needs now is a stable mentality. For example, B fee should not always hit the front midfielder position, such as Manchester United needs to stabilize the starting lineup and maintain the consistency of pressing intensity. As long as we can achieve consistency in tactical discipline, pressing intensity, and game mentality, it is actually not difficult for Manchester United to win more games.
