HOW DID THE INTERNATIONAL BREAK AFFECT THE TEAMS PERFORMANCE?

 
 

 
 

 
 

With the team getting ready to face Everton today some Manchester United \fans might be wondering what type of form the team is in after the international break this past week. Manchester United players each headed to their various International teams to participate in last week's international matches and the fans might be worried because, as a result of West Hams dropping points yesterday to Crystal Palace, Manchester United has a chance to close the gap between Us and the top four team especially Arch Rivals Manchester City who are sitting in fourth place with a four-point gap ahead of Manchester United. But with Manchester United still to play today we have a chance to close the gap from four points to one with a win today. But what momentum and form is the team facing after the International break? 









Well, the only way to know the answer to that question is to analyze the performance of each Manchester United player during the international break.

UNITED STARS HEAD OFF ON INTERNATIONAL DUTY 

 
 

Manchester United team-mates will go head to head live on MUTV when Netherlands face France on Friday, one of the numerous fixtures in this current international break to feature Reds stars. 

 








 

Daley Blind and Memphis Depay are in the Dutch squad for the friendly encounter in Amsterdam as they build for the next World Cup qualifying campaign after missing out on the 2016 European Championships. Meanwhile, Les Bleus, hosts of this summer's major tournament, can count upon Anthony Martial to provide plenty of excitement in attack. The game will be shown exclusively live in the UK on United's official television channel. 

 
 

Netherlands' subsequent match will be against England at Wembley on Tuesday 29 March. Injuries to club colleagues including captain Wayne Rooney have left Chris Smalling as the only United player in Roy Hodgson's party for that game plus the preceding one on Saturday, with Bastian Schweinsteiger ruled out for Germany in Berlin with a knee problem. 

 
 

Schweinsteiger was also due to face a team-mate on Tuesday 29 March, when the Germans meet Italy, as Matteo Darmian is in the Azzurri's squad for their schedule, which also includes a clash in Spain this Thursday. David De Gea and Juan Mata are both in the European champions' ranks with a friendly against Romania also on the horizon. 

 

 







Paddy McNair is set to represent Northern Ireland against Wales on Thursday and Slovenia next Monday, but Marouane Fellaini will no longer be in action due to Belgium's friendly against Portugal being canceled in light of the tragic events that occurred in Brussels on Monday (21 March). 

 
 

Guillermo Varela has been handed his first call-up to Uruguay's senior squad for their World Cup qualifiers against Brazil and Peru. Sergio Romero and Marcos Rojo are in Argentina's plans for the games with Chile and Bolivia. The fourth Red in South American action is Antonio Valencia with the fit-again Ecuadorian returning to his country's squad for the fixtures versus Paraguay and Colombia.

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
