In MU’s 2-2 draw against Tottenham, while young striker Rasmus Hojlund had an impressive performance, the “veterans” played below their strength.
The dramatic 2-2 draw between MU and Tottenham in round 21 of the Premier League witnessed many bright spots from the “Red Devils” of Manchester.
Striker duo Hojlund and Rashford are gradually finding a common voice in attack. MU’s second goal is a clear demonstration of this. Hojlund made a smart move and created a wall for Rashford to rush into the penalty area and finish. The good coordination shows that this couple is increasingly understanding each other and becoming more dangerous.
Besides, Garnacho is playing increasingly well on the right wing. He no longer just tried to dribble the ball to find a shot angle like before, but coordinated more with his teammates. This has helped MU have more diverse attack options.
Man United’s attacking trio are 3/4 of the players with the highest scores according to the scoreboard from Goal. With an impressive performance, Hojlund was given 8 points by Goal, while Garnacho and Rashford were given 7 points. Another player also given this score is Diogo Dalot.
The 3 names with the least points on MU’s side appeared as 2 “veterans” Evans and Eriksen. While Eriksen is too weak in the MU midfield, Evans appears weak and slow in situations facing opposing players. MU’s second goal clearly showed Evans’ “gentleness” when he let Bentancur comfortably shoot to defeat Onana.
“Young shoot” Kobbie Mainoo and substitute McTominay were also scored 5 points when both continuously allowed Tottenham’s midfield to comfortably coordinate without pressure. The remaining MU players mostly received a score of 6 from Goal.
