The noise around Manchester United is deafening at the moment. With the speculation over Erik ten Hag’s future and the patchy form on the pitch, there is little room to go deeper.
But you know your club best and earlier this week, we asked you to tell us one thing that is going under the radar at Old Trafford – and you delivered.
Here are some of your comments:
Steffan: Hardly anyone is talking about the lack of obvious alternatives available should Manchester United opt to sack Ten Hag. If you can think of any, how sure can you really be that they can definitely just step in and handle the pressure and scrutiny that managing this huge club entails?
Ravi: I don’t understand why Rasmus Hojlund isn’t getting a run in the team. He’s a good, up-and-coming striker who has already got a year’s experience in the league. There is no point putting him on in the 80th minute if our main issue is converting chances into goals. He needs to be starting.
David: Ten Hag has not yet been able to put a full team out on the field. The new £50m defender Leny Yoro is recovering from a broken foot and has not appeared yet, while Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia have been out for the whole season. Mason Mount has hardly been available – neither has Rasmus Hojlund – and Manuel Ugarte has started once. Ten Hag must be given the chance to play a few games with a full team.
Rajen: No-one is talking about how poor Diogo Dalot’s performance has been. The guy does not know how and when to overload the midfield. He was also pathetic versus Tottenham.
Iain: Much was talked in the close season about strengthening the defence, replacing an aging midfield and the lack of a striker. Yet no-one seems to be concerned about the goalkeeping position. Andre Onana seems, to me, to be a vastly overrated loose cannon and is showing little sign of improvement.
