MU is about to face Atletico Madrid in the round of 1/8 Champions League ( on February 24). After good results in the English Premier League, the "Red Devils" are ready to bring surprises to the Spanish champion.
After a period of asceticism with the 4-2-2-2 formation, coach Ralf Rangnick understood that the force array in his hand was not suitable for that tactical system. A series of bad results forced the German coach to make a change. And it is clear that the result that MU has won over the past time is not bad.
In the last two wins in the English Premier League, according to the Manchester Evenign News, MU started with a 4-2-3-1 formation. The return of Paul Pogba allows the tactical system of the "Red Devils" to operate more flexibly. Although there are still certain concerns in the defense, basically the attack of this team has improved with 6 goals after only 2 matches.
In the great battle with Atletico, coach Rangnick is expected to have in his hands almost the best squad. There will only be one case that makes the German military leader hesitate, that is Edinson Cavani. The Uruguayan striker was absent from MU's 4-2 victory over Leeds in round 26 of the English Premier League and is in a hurry to recover. The other absentee is Mason Greenwood, who is still serving an internal suspension.
With the return and shine of Fred, coach Rangnick will have many options to approach this match for MU. The "Red Devils" can play a fair match with the reigning La Liga champion, but they can also choose for themselves a sure game plan, promote safety and take defense - counterattack as a guideline.
According to journalist Samuel Luchurst, MU will continue to face Atletico Madrid at the Wanda Metropolitano with a similar scheme. The main kickers of the "Red Devils" are expected to be: De Gea, Dalot, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, McTominay, Pogba, Bruno Fernandes, Sancho, Rashford and a key striker named Ronaldo.
However, the Telegraph's source said that MU played with a diamond midfield diagram, and Marcus Rashford had to sit on the bench to make room for Fred. The German military leader is said to need Fred's ability to cling and press non-stop to limit the strength of the opponent.
In the recent victory over Leeds, Fred entered the field in the 67th minute instead of Pogba and shone with an important goal in the 70th minute. The pair of identical cards Fred - McTominay can bring reliability and safety to the MU defense high. than. And thanks to that, Pogba has free feet to focus on the offensive front, and is also a reliable partner with Bruno Fernandes.
Regardless of the tactical scheme, British newspapers also assess that Cristiano Ronaldo and Jadon Sancho are still a great hope for MU. In recent matches, Sancho played very prominently, especially 90 minutes against Leeds. "Red Devils" need speed and mutation from the ball phases that Sancho brings, who received 8.5 points (the highest MU squad) from Whoscored.
