Defeat to Nottingham Forest means the Europa League is now United's best hope of qualifying for next season's Champions League
Defeat to Nottingham Forest means the Europa League is now United's best hope of qualifying for next season's Champions LeagueDifferent variables have been changed in terms of their opponent, the conditions, and most significantly team selection, with Leny Yoro becoming the 20th player to start aBut one thing, above all, remains a constant, and it is one that will only continue to wreak havoc on this ongoing experiment and that is the fact absolutely no team fears playing Manchester...
It went down as a massive mistake, but it was nothing on the third, a basic lapse in concentration and communication when Chris Wood’s header looped over Onana and neither United’s goalkeeper nor defender Lisandro Martinez thought to get a touch on the ball before it bounced into the net. It means the experiment will have to continue, but it won’t get any easier, not only because it is a hurting Manchester City next in the league on Sunday – after a trip to Czech club Viktoria Plzen on Thursday – but because all clubs now utterly relish the prospect of playing United, with the arrival of Amorim to take Erik ten Hag’s place not changing that one iota.
Manuel Ugarte arguably solidified his chances of a regular place, with a particularly bright first-half display against Forest, but Kobbie Mainoo was not as effective, meaning it may not be the end of Casemiro’s or Christian Eriksen’s chances there.Quite who should be Fernandes’ No 10 partner in crime on the left isn’t clear, either – on this occasion Alejandro Garnacho started and Marcus Rashford came on – nor will Maguire feel as though he is destined for the bench.
