Before October, the author published an article saying that October and November are the best time for Manchester United to chase points, not only in the Premier League, but also in the Champions League.
In those two months, United have not faced a top-10 opponent in the Premier League other than Manchester City;In the Champions League, Manchester United will also play Copenhagen and Galatasaray twice, and Bayern, the strongest opponent in the group, will be left for DecemberFinally, United take on a similarly injured Newcastle United in November.
In those 11 games, Man** scored 18 goals and conceded 17 goals, including no goals in Premier League games against Manchester City and Carabao Cup against Newcastle, and four clean sheets (Copenhagen, Fulham, Luton, Everton).
In these 11 games, Manchester United has 6 home games and 5 away games, of which 3 wins and 3 losses have been achieved in home games, and 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in away games
Manchester United has played a total of 6 Premier League games in the past two months, Manchester United has a record of 5 wins and 1 loss, which has greatly improved Manchester United's points, you must know that before October, Manchester United only achieved a poor record of 3 wins and 4 losses, so even if Manchester United only faced the weak team to win three points, but the author is still willing to give Ten Hag's Premier League a high score, at least Manchester United has recovered the decline, and is currently only 4 points away from Champions League qualification.
With all three wins in the Premier League in November, Ten Hag also won the best coach of the month in November, and for Manchester United, the importance of Premier League points is self-evident.
Manchester United has many problems at present, and it is even more obvious in the Premier League: Manchester United has scored 16 goals in 13 games, conceded 16 goals, and has a goal difference of 0, and among the top 11 teams in the Premier League, only Manchester United and West Ham United have a goal difference of 0.
Luckily for Manchester United, there will be a time when a player will perform well and play consistently, such as when Manchester United were on the eve of their collapse (early October), and Scott McTominay scored three goals in two games to help United turn things around in the Premier League.
United won three in a row in November, scoring five goals without conceding one, and Harry Maguire started three games in a row and formed United's most consistent centre-back partnership with Victor Lindelof, although the duo was not a solid combination in the Champions League.
As of November 30, Manchester United and Galatasaray match, Ten Hag is more dependent on the "previous generation of Manchester United members", rather than the players who really belong to him, in the author's opinion, Manchester United players in the Premier League games, will indeed be more serious, after all, Champions League qualification is almost directly related to the salary that each player can get, no one will be unable to live with the salary.
Although Ten Hag stressed not long ago that Manchester United value his tactical style of play at Ajax, even in November, when he won three consecutive victories, Manchester United's style of play is not close to the former Ajax!Ten Hag has reason to say some of his descendants are injured, but at a time when he has to rely on the older Red Devils, can he really continue to deliver on his transformation plans?
Rasmus Hojlen has scored five goals for United in the Champions League, a staggering statistic that puts Hojlen joint top scorer.
Hojlen has certainly been in fine form in the Champions League, but he has lost his soul in the Premier League, scoring just five goals in 16 appearances for United in all competitions this season, and the Reds desperately need him to perform similarly in the Premier League.
Manchester United's final Champions League game will be against Bayern Munich, and Manchester United will only have to win to take the initiative, which will undoubtedly be very difficult, and can only hope that Bayern, who have already locked up the top spot in the group, will release the water in the final round.
In general, the author thinks it is understandable that Manchester United will face Galatasaray with one draw and one loss, after all, Galatasaray has Icardi, Zaha, Mertens, Ziyech, Torreira, Oliveira, Ndombele, Sanchez, Muslera and other top players who can gain a foothold in the big five leagues, but one win and one defeat against Copenhagen is really unreasonable.
Manchester United's Champions League journey, unless they beat Bayern Munich in the final round to qualify from the group, is completely unsatisfactory in the author's opinion.
Manchester United will have at least eight games in December, an average of 3 from 3 DecemberThere will be one game in five days, two games a week in the Premier League and two games in the Champions League a week, which will test Ten Hag's ability to adjust, and to make matters worse, Lisandro Martinez, Malacia, Diallo, Casemiro, Eriksen, Mason Mount, Evans, Sancho and other players will be difficult to return in December, and United will need to avoid further injuries.
And Manchester United's opponent strength has also improved a lot compared to 10-11 months, 8 games, Newcastle, Chelsea, Bayern, Liverpool, West Ham United, Aston Villa, these 6 opponents have at least the top ten strength of the Premier League, Ten Hag will not be able to get the ability to win 3 consecutive wins in November, tomorrow at 04:00 in the morning, Manchester United will go to Newcastle's home stadium to open the devil's schedule in December, are you optimistic about Manchester United's performance?
The author believes that Manchester United has scored 10 points in all the games so far this season, and can only score a passing score of 6 points, after all, Manchester United has indeed suffered serious injury problems, and if you want to score Ten Hag, I am afraid it will not be able to pass.
