          With Manchester United currently sitting in 5th place and tied at 47 points with 4th place fierce rivals (Manchester city), while making sure that the gap 3rd place team (Tottenham) and 2nd place team (Arsenal) remains four points and seven points respectively, it seems that the mood surrounding Old Trafford has turned around from agitated to joyous within the space of two months.  While the season was approaching the end of december, Manchester United fans and players were facing some really tough times as the team was accumulating some bad results and unexpected losses.  Losses to Norwich, Stoke city, Bournemouth, Southampton, Sunderland, Wolfsburg,, Swansea City, Arsenal and draws to Newcastle, CSKA Moscow, Manchester City, Middlesbrough, Crystal palace, Leicester City, West Ham, Chelsea and most notably Newcastle left Manchester United sitting in 10th place in the Premiere League table in the middle of the season.
                                                                        
It was not just the position Manchester United found themselves in that bothered the Old Trafford board members and fans. The main reason for the frustration felt by Man U fans was mostly the lack of attacking football on the part of the Man U team. However, in the middle of all the complaints from the fans about the boring football the club was playing, Manchester United was still able to rack up enough points to qualify for the Champions League as well as climb back all the way to 5th place and level on points with fourth place team in the Premiere league table. Judging from the team’s current run of excellent form in recent games and factoring in the fact that the club is still missing some players because of injury, everyone might start to consider the possibility of Van Gaal proving his critics wrong about being the wrong man for the coaching job.
    A short while ago, Manchester United fans were spotted with banners promoting the campaign to  remove Van Gaal from his managerial position at Old Trafford because rumours had circulated that legendary former Chelsea Manager Jose Mourinho  would be taking over as Manchester United Manager. These rumours took off despite the fact that current Coach, Van Gaal, during his first season, took the club back to champions League,  improved the clubs position in the Premiere League from 10th place to 5th place, brought in quality players like Schweinsteiger, Damian, Depay and promoted some quality players from the club youth Academy.

Manchester United’s last week’s victory over Arsenal has inspired most fans and the media to change their  mind about the club’s new manager. The Red Devil fans watched the team outplay Arsenal impressively for most of the match. Before the game,  a good number of quality players like Martial, Rooney, Schweinsteiger, Darmian, Jones, Fellaini were confirmed to be playing while some players were missing due to injury. The odds of the team beating an in form Arsenal team was nearly impossible but the Red Devils came out of the match with a win and, just to prove to the clubs critics that the victory over Arsenal was not a fluke, Manchester United secured a mid week victory over another in form team (Wartford )this past Wednesday. So the question remains, has coach Louis Van Gaal finally silenced his critics permanently and has he won the fans over permanently with the recent impressive results the team has been racking up recently?  Speaking as a fan and a fair observer of the modern game I think Van Gaal has made enough positive impact in the club to remain manager of the club. I hope all the fans, as well as the the board members of Manchester United have noticed the positive impact Louis Van Gaal has had on the club and lets Van Gaal remain manager for a few more seasons. I see positive things in the clubs future if that happens.

As a result of further investigations carried out, statistical and visible evidence has presented the reality that the Manchester United men's team in some aspects of the 2022/23 season has continued to show signs of struggle even with all three midfielders present on the pitch for Manchester United with the presence of Christian Eriksen operating in the number 8 position showing signs of difficulty and inconsistency for most of the season for Manchester United. With the recurring pressure the Danish midfielder receives in the midfield, Christian Eriksen has displayed the decision to roam around different areas of the pitch with the intent of finding pockets of space to deliver a pass which the Danish midfielder has displayed himself to be one of the best uh delivering keys from pocket to space.        The midfield issue for Erik Ten Hag's current Manchester United team stems from the fact that with Christian Eriksen choosing to roam around the pitch to find space, the Danish
