Recently Manchester United has spent a lot of money on new players to change the game tactics which were very bad last year. Even though there have been corrections to MU players, there were also no changes in the first match in the Europa League against Twente, physically and the team's performance was very poor which is normal.
Many of MU key players were injured but it was not a fatal problem. At least the management can see a replacement for Erik ten Hag who can help Manchester United win the Europa League and their Domestic League, which has very tight competition this season.

Position no 11 in the Premier League and only won 2x out of 5 games when clubs like Chelsea may be better and Man United this season. But if I say it United fans will definitely not like it, but that's the fact. In my opinion this season Man United can not be said to be ready to undergo the Premier League, one more thing when playing against a team from the lower caste League they were only able to draw and as usual Erik Ten Hag will always be in Fabrizio Romano posts. lol Ten Hag easily said "we have a lot of young players, so we need time for the process". Yes, continue like that because Ten Hag burden is too heavy to hold United. Spending almost 600 million Poundsterling but the results are nothing.

yes, back to "need time for the process".

Son Heung-Min has been admitted that between him and Tottenham owner there was no further negotiation about new contract but Son Heung-Min said he didn't think about it now because currently his focus is to bringing Tottenham to performing well and actually Son Heung-Min has the clause into his current contract that after his contract ended Tottenham can extended his contract for next 12 month so Tottenham can activated this clause if they want

We all know Son Heung-Min is the current captain and the fans is always be likes him because of his behaviour and since 2015 Son Heung-Min can scores 164 goals from 414 matches and after Kane leave Son Heung-Min has taking over Kane position as the captain and although last season he was linked to some of clubs but Son Heung-Min has been showing his loyality for Tottenham so he deserved to gets new contract

Erik ten Hag's reputation on the MU board of directors is increasingly declining, as the Red Devils were held to a 1-1 draw by Twente in their Europa League debut. Despite spending a large sum of money, bringing to Old Trafford 5 new players to upgrade the squad in the summer transfer market, MU has not shown any change after a difficult start.
In my eyes, MU's performance this season is really bad. Even though some key players were injured, what Ten Hag and his team did was unacceptable. "Putting injuries aside, the team's form is very bad. Most other teams have injuries, not just MU. Ultimately, a coach who has no specific tactics, poor purchasing ability, and is not consistently motivating - I think he deserves to be fired.

If this news is possible then it's a very good one, Florian Wirtz is beyond average and would help strengthen the attacking line of Arsenal is they're able to get him, however the price tag on him would be too much for Arsenal to spend on one player and I'm pretty sure Arsenal won't want to spend an amount that's much more than what they spent on Declan Rice for one player and on a January transfer, we'll it would be worth it given the quality Wirtz would bring to Arsenal just that his release clause would be much for Arsenal. Before this summer, Real Madrid were interested in Florian Wirtz and I think there's more chances of him moving to Real Madrid over Arsenal.

There's no doubt that Saka is the most performing attacker they've got in that squad when it comes to the frontline, I would've mentioned Gabriel Jesus, he's a quality player and has helped Arsenal a lot but injury crisis has currently made him Decline. Well, he tends to be a very good player when he's fully fit, Kai Havertz who recently joined Arsenal is also improving in the team although we're yet to see his best. Getting a rising quality star like Gyokeres would be the best decision Arsenal transfer team would make by next summer cause he'll be an upgrade to injury proned Gabriel Jesus and even bring a challenge to the league dominating scorer Erling Haaland.

Szczęsny is going to play for Barcelona soon and he is definitely a good experienced goalkeeper who can have a good performance in Barcelona and he can even have a better performance than Ter Stegen there. Ter Stegen was unlucky to have this situation and Barcelona is lucky to find Szczęsny when he is not playing for any team.
But the sad thing for Barcelona is they didn't use their younger goalkeeper and they didn't trust La Masia, maybe they could use Iñaki Peña instead of hiring Szczęsny.

Ten Hak was given everything by the Management including the criteria for selecting the players he needed, but if you look at some of the results that have been passed this season, Manchester United's performance is still very disappointing. The draws obtained when facing Crystal Palace and Twente are completely unreasonable because their strength is much better. Management will definitely evaluate if Manchester United has not improved in the next match and maybe he will be on the verge of being fired.

The rumor will be a problem for Ten Hak and if he is unable to evaluate the team and the presence of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as a rumored candidate will make the atmosphere even more lively. Ten Hak must try to improve the team's shortcomings and if he fails it will affect his career at Manchester United.

How much more money should be spent to facilitate Ten Hag to improve the quality of the team, three years is not a short time, but Man United still has not been able to rise from the slump. Honestly, I feel sorry for Man United elite players who are struggling to develop their best performance. Of course, their failure is due to Ten Hag inability to polish them. As in the case of Sancho, he performed well with Dortmund and Chelsea, meaning the key to Man United's failure lies with Ten Hag.

The match against Tottenham is very crucial because they are not a weak team that is easy to beat, this result will determine whether Ten Hag is still worthy of being maintained or immediately replaced. Hopefully Sir Jim Ratcliffe and the board of directors can see with open eyes what is happening to Man United.

Florian Wirtz is a very good player that will suit Arsenal style of play perfectly so if Arsenal should sign him to the club it will be a huge boost to their squad and also a good move for the player himself. Let’s just hope Arsenal is not scared away this time because of the price on him because Arsenal are known to be very mindful of the way they spend their money. To break Manchester City dominance i think Arsenal needs to sign more players like a prolific striker and an additional winger as well as signing Florian Wirtz it will make them more competitive and they would be able to win the league easily.

Quality forward you say, I don’t think so the only quality forward they have is Saka and apart from Saka the rest are just average players so they need more quality upfront especially getting a striker like Gyokeres you mentioned and more wingers and also getting Wirtz is not bad in my opinion.

Actually in all these bad problems there is a center of the problem and we do not know what the real problem is. If we blame Ten Hag as the center of the problem, the fact is that Ten Hag has saved MU in the past few seasons and that means there are other problems that make all this seem worse.
From my current thinking Man United has a problem with injured players and this is the main problem and regarding whether management will fire ETH or not, we do not know for sure. But realistically MU seems to have to try a new atmosphere with a new coach to try a better chance.

I just don't know if the management of Manchester united are not watching their games, because Manchester united have really suffered in the hands of Eric ten hang, he keeps on breaking and setting more unwanted record as the manager of Manchester united with the kind of support he has had.

Though he is actually not a bad coach in my own opinion, what I think is that he has run out of ideas and he no longer has anything to offer,  because if Jose Mourinho, Luis van gaal or even ole gunnar solskjaer was given the kind of support he has had as the manager of the club, I believe that one of them would have won the premier league.

Right now the season is still fresh, so I believe that the hierarchy of Manchester united still believe that he can turn the tide around, I just hope he doesn't put them in a very difficult situation before they realize that he no longer has anything to offer this Manchester united team.

Manchester United has spent more than 400 million euros during ten hag's tenure as their coach but they have only won 1 FA trophy and Carabao cup so far, honestly if other teams coached by ten hag of course they would has fired him immediately now because of his inability to coach, previously Manchester United have evaluated ten hag performance in the last two seasons and I don't know what they see from ten hag is actually for them offering a new contract extension to Ten Hag as a coach, not enough to stop there, Manchester United actually increased the  budget buy player for Ten Hag this season but what we see is of course not in accordance with the expectations expected by fans today, to be honest, seeing the poor performance and inconsistency coupled with the poor strategy that Ten Hag has implemented so far actually makes me doubt that they will be able to talk much in the Premier League and Europa League this season.

There should be an evaluation from management. It may be that he has only worked for 3 years, but we have not seen any clear progress. Ten Hag has been given the money to buy players as he wants. But just look at the moment, the EPL results against Crystal Palace and in the UEL against Twente draw have made many rumors of Ten Hag's determination against Tottenham today. In addition, former coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said he was ready to return if needed. That adds to the heat of rumors that Ten Hag's departure is imminent.

The South Korean player might not be in good form now but he deserves at least a year extension for his loyalty and service to the club for ten years. Son Heung-Min confirmed two days ago that there have been no talks with the club concerning his future but I think he wants to remain in the club to help them win silverware this season. The Saudi Professional League and the Major League Soccer have given players at his age to earn good money and also enjoy football before retirement. Maybe some other low-placed clubs in the EPL might decide to get his service because he still has the quality and is highly experienced.

But I think both are different, this is the first season for Joshua Zirkzee joining Manchester United and he will be able to adapt and make lot of big contributions if he can understand each other game with his teammates to create better game collaboration.
I think Joshua Zirkzee and also Rasmus Hojlund can be players who can work together to strengthen Manchester United front line and can appear competitively, but it back to how Ten Hag places each player in each position and how he applies tactics and playing strategies that are suitable for the players to understand.
Arrival of Joshua Zirkzee could be successful transfer if Ten Hag is able to utilize all the players well, I see some players who are not suitable but that for the back line and all of this is Ten Hag decision so we just see how this squad develops to finish the season with the Premier League and the Europa League.

To achieve consistency requires good players if Arsenal has an attack power that is not better than Man City how can they perform consistently by continuing to win? Look at Man City, they have a productive front line that is one of the things that makes them continue to perform consistently by appearing strong in front of their opponents creating many goals and goal differences in order to achieve every point in their matches, shouldn't Arsenal also be like that if they don't want to be left behind in the title race? In my opinion, adding 1 player alone cannot be said to be a waste of money unless Arsenal buys a lot of players like Chelsea did while Arsenal only recruits players they really need.

I don't see any difference between both of them, both play like shit.

Zirkzee only scored 1 goal from 7 appearances, while Hojlund scored 16 goals from 45 appearances, it was better with Ronaldo, even he's already old, but he can score a goal for Manchester United.

There are no reliable striker for Manchester United yet, but at least other players can score a goal, their whole team keep improving.

Yes! They did. It's reasons why I didn't slander Erik Ten Hag or reasons why I defended him. I saw how well he did during his first season. Crucial players got Injured and also some Manchester United players didn't do well to fight for the manager. ( Marcus Rashford is a good example ). Leny Yoro is back already, in the month of October, I believe he'll be fully ready. I'm thinking Man United are well aware of his injuries before signing him. He's a generational talent. They would coz, the high rate of injuries last season was overwhelming. Both Rasmus Hojlund and Leny Yoro got Injured during pre-season games. Manchester United fans slandering EtH is alright, but wanting Ole Gunner Solskjaer back is has got to be a dump headed take!

I agree with the analysis that those two should play together since Zirkzee clearly has the ability to be a 'playmaker'. I think some analysis from fan channels or pundits also wants ETH to play those two together, at least for a few matches. Judging their chemistry from one match when they never played together is a bit harsh IMO.

Speaking of injuries, I'm sure United had some terrible injuries track record last season. Even their latest player Leny Yoro also got injured, didn't he[1]? I remember there is a narrative suggesting their medical team is bad which caused many players to get recurrent injuries or something last season[2]. I wonder if Hojlund fitness issue is related to this or not. Hopefully, they find better doctors and medical teams after slashing their workforce[3].

If Rasmus Hojlund fails to improve his game, and often suffers from injuries, his position in the Manchester United main squad will be threatened by Joshua Zirkzee, instead of they can play together.. Sometimes we can't blame the attackers, they are the final executors of the creativity built by other players, the team unstable performance in other areas makes their goal productivity very minimal. Meanwhile, this is Ten Hag third year in charge of The Red Devils, the Dutch manager seems to rely heavily on young players this season, and as usual he will certainly ask fans to be patient to see the development shown by his squad. It is likely that Manchester United journey this season will not be much different from last season, which often made fans hearts jump every week.
