Manchester United lost 0 2 in a row, Garnacho missed a single shot, and Ten Hag had no way forward
United have lost three in a row, Garnacho missed a great opportunity, and Ten Hag faces a serious test. In the league, Manchester United will travel to West Ham United. The recent slump has made fans no longer believe in the team. This season, they have repeatedly lost to mid-table teams, with their only win over a sluggish Chelsea. Manchester United didn't surprise us in this game against West Ham. With United's only centre-back in the case of injury, Evans was the only one who could only bring the young Cambuvara on.
In the first half, the two cooperated tacitly and stopped several attacks from the other side. Although the United defence was still solid in the first half, their attack was still weak. Garnacho, in particular, got a lot of good chances to shoot but didn't score. In the middle of that, Anthony passed the ball to Garnacho on 35 minutes, but he missed a great chance. Garnacho was once again greedy enough to fail to get the football to his team-mates and missed a great opportunity. Earlier, Garnacho also missed a chance against the Reds.
In the second half, West Ham were desperate for an equaliser and they stepped up their attacks. In the 56th minute, Bowen headed it over, but Onana's hero saved the ball and he single-handedly kept the ball out of the net, allowing United to almost lose. Despite this, United missed their chance on 72 minutes when Bowen won the ball and Onana saved, but his own goal gave United a 1-0 lead. It wasn't long before United dropped another point when a mistake by Mainou gave West Ham room to score, and Kudus' goal made it 2-0 and the game was over.
The 2-0 defeat was a huge blow to United, with a previous defeat to Bournemouth and a draw held by Liverpool that made it three defeats in a row and now sit eighth behind West Ham. Manchester United are now six points away from fourth place in the Premier League and are still one game away. Manchester United have been at a disadvantage against the giants, and this form simply does not deserve to be a challenge to the last four of the Premier League.
Ten Hag looked disappointed after the defeat and the Dutch boss looked like there was nothing he could do. This season, Manchester United are fighting for next season's Champions League, but that chance is getting slimmer. If he can't get a place in the Champions League, then Ten Hag will have the opportunity to move. Ten Hag had been sacked a couple of times before that, but he survived each time. I don't know if he will be able to salvage his career as a head coach this time.
