Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s chair at Manchester United is in the heat after the home defeat to Manchester City in the latest Premier League match at Old Trafford. 2-0 type that can’t fight
Despite news coming out that he will order the team and staff to rest their brains for a week during the international break. But of course, when coming back, there are still many problems that need to be resolved before returning to play again at the end of the month.
And here are 4 issues that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer must urgently fix before it’s too late.
1. Restore the confidence of the team members.

The most shocking thing after the home defeat to Manchester City was probably not the poor performance or the result. But it was a confession from captain Harry Maguire who frankly admitted that his team was “believable” that they had the potential to beat the visitors.
This clearly shocked Sol Cha. Because what the £80m defender talks about is inevitably linked to the manager’s abilities.
The most important homework is how to regain the faith and confidence of the team members. Just as the Norwegian can do when he stepped up to replace Jose Mourinho on a temporary basis and gave the Red Devils back the confidence that they made such a great performance that they weren’t. Lost 8 matches in a row
2. Consider the form of 3 important shins urgently

Since returning from injury in a surprise clash against Leicester City and making a mistake contributing to the team’s 4-2 defeat, Harry Maguire has yet to return to form. at its own level Heavier than that, Solcha still has a bluff to send into the field almost every game. which has a severe impact on the team and the players
While Luke Shaw himself became a different person from Euro 2020 and the beginning of the season. The latest error in a second goal defeat to Manchester City is proof, and Bruno Fernandes has also seen a considerable drop in form lately.
The trio has been a key player in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s squad for almost two years, but now that’s not the case, the Red Devils boss has to decide to do something with the available options. in hand for the team to play well again
3. Give Donny van de Beek a chance

Donny van de Beek’s name has returned to the spotlight amid Manchester United’s poor performance after he made his last two substitute appearances against Atalanta. and Manchester City
The Dutchman received quite a lot of praise against Atalanta in the UEFA Champions League, prompting Red Devils fans to want to see him play more. But in the end, still haven’t had a chance.
The report added that a number of United players believe Van de Beek deserves more playing time after seeing his last two games, and it is difficult to disagree. And this may be the time for Solskjaer to take this player seriously when the first 11 players who have been sent to play can do just this. Which may be a turning point for the team
4. A clear game plan

Solskjaer may not have to be too serious about his plans for a game against Watford on November 20 after the international break. But it would not be very reliable to meet Chelsea and Arsenal, which are two hard games that await.
Switching to a three-man defense with a wing-back in the past few games should have strengthened their defense. But it also reveals weaknesses in the midfield and makes the attacking dull at the same time, especially in games against big teams.
In fact, in the era of Solskjaer, Man United will focus on counter-attacks against top teams together. Rather than going to dominate the ball, fight or win with beautiful style. And now he has to decide whether to let the team play to focus on the results or to take style alone, with the game at Vicarage Road. be the judge
