Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has faced scrutiny over his tactics, as former star Andreas Pereira claimed his side was easy to play against this season.
Pereira profited from United’s dysfunctional setup, with Fulham beating the Red Devils 2-1 at Old Trafford at the end of February. Pereira was at the heart of Marco Silva’s side’s attack that caused plenty of problems. He admitted that he found it easy to play against Manchester United, compared to a previous unsuccessful visit to M16 in the FA Cup last season, indicating Ten Hag’s team’s regression.
Only Luton Town have conceded more shots in the Premier League this season, highlighting Manchester United’s defensive struggles. Pereira’s comments raise further questions about Ten Hag’s tactics and the team’s performance. The 28-year-old’s statement about enjoying the “easy” task against Manchester United compared to the previous year’s game adds to the discussion about the team’s performance and potential issues within the squad.
