He is the only one to blame” It has been admitted by Erik Ten Hag that he was unsuccessful. The terrible loss that Manchester United suffered today against Manchester City can be credited to a player.

As a result of Manchester United’s recent struggles in the Premier League, after they suffered their second consecutive loss, they are now 11 points behind Aston Villa in fourth place.

This virtually puts an end to their ambitions of finishing in the top four.

Marcus Rashford’s spectacular early score gave United the lead, which they were able to keep until halftime under the direction of manager Erik ten Hag.

The match started off successfully for United, as they were able to preserve their lead until the break.

On the other hand, their advantage was only temporary because the home team was able to tie the score barely ten minutes into the second half, which put United under an increasing amount of pressure.

After everything was said and done, they were defeated by a late winner scored by Phil Foden and a third goal scored by Erling Haaland shortly after that.

There was a wide range of player performances, but Andre Onana, United’s goalkeeper, stood out as one of the team’s best performers.

He made important saves throughout the game and was a significant contributor to the team’s first goal.

In addition, Diogo Dalot displayed a remarkable performance for the majority of the battle; nevertheless, his quality of play began to decline in the latter stages of the encounter.

In spite of the fact that Raphael Varane put on a strong defensive performance, City was still able to find the back of the net with his efforts.

In contrast, Victor Lindelof struggled to perform well in a left-back position that was unknown to him, while Casemiro’s performance was relatively disappointing in comparison to his prior appearances.

While Scott McTominay’s advanced midfield role helped United’s midfield become more stable, Kobbie Mainoo demonstrated his potential and adaptability.

However, this came at the expense of United’s ability to develop an offensive threat.

Throughout the entirety of the match, Alejandro Garnacho was very quiet, and Bruno Fernandes was unable to exercise the customary influence that he normally does because United was having trouble maintaining possession of the ball.

The early goal scored by Rashford was a highlight, but his overall performance was deemed decent, despite the fact that he did not have a substantial influence beyond the early strike.
