Everyone's had Covid so I don't buy into that.
For me it's more of the same. This is the sort of crap Ole got dragged over the coals for. Greenwood was the best of a poor first half yet he's the first to get dragged of?
Last year we watched United when the main attacking threat came from the left with Rashford and Shaw overlapping. And many wondered if only they had a RW to balance out the threat. They chased and chased one then when they finally land him barely play him and when they do stick him on the left. Whilst putting Rashford on the right? Which hasn't worked..... ever.
This 4-2-2-2 is just stupid. Zero width and what there is is AWB. Zero ability to get anything of danger to the front two. And more often than not leaving the two full backs exposed.
They have the makings of a very good 442 team.
What would I do? Get Rice. Give it a bit then give him the armband and build it from there. There is no leader.
