MANCHESTER UNITED ARSENAL MATCH DAY TALK





Paris St German, Liverpool, and Chelsea. Manchester United has certainly had a hand full of tough matches come their way these past few weeks and the fact that the red devils have gone into these game with just one loss received by the hands of the French giants as the only blemish in Manchester United’s record possibly makes Manchester United as one of the most inform team in the second half of this seasons football calendar.



  
If anyone thinks the fact that Manchester United under Ole Gunner Solskjaer is yet to be beaten in the second half of the season is impressive, the fact of Manchester United avoiding losses against hard-hitting opponents such as Crystal Palace and Liverpool is sure to knock your socks off and possibly make you start envisioning Ole Gunner Solskjaer as the possible real deal Manager for Manchester United.


Heading into Manchester United’s last meeting with Liverpool at Old Trafford Ole Gunner Solskjaer team were suffer a major injury crises with a lot of Manchester United’s big-name players unavailable due to various injuries, the realistic expectation would have been for Manchester United to be overwhelmed by Liverpool’s attacking quality and possibly succumb to an understandable defeat.





To the delight of some spectators, Manchester United was able to hold off Jurgen Klopp’s red hot Liverpool and Knick a point on the night. As if a draw against a good Liverpool team was not satisfactory enough, Manchester United was able to mount a very impressive comeback 3-1 victory against a good Crystal Palace team at Sellhorst Park three days after the Liverpool game with Manchester United still nursing a lot of injured first-team players. Ole Gunner Solskjaer might have a couple of faults brought against him when the issue of the permanent managerial position is raised but incompetency, lack of quality from his team and failure to deliver will most likely not make the short list of reasons why Ole Gunner Solskjaer should not become Manchester United permanent manager at the end of the season.



   
The battle for fourth place in the Premier League table will hardly find a better moment to take center stage for that tonight’s critical tie as Manchester United battle with another fourth place challenger as well as one of Manchester United’s historic rivals Arsenal. A draw was not typically the best result Manchester United envisioned during the first meeting between both teams earlier this season. The names on the shirts of both teams seem to have remained the same, however, there are few factual changes that have taken place in Manchester United which should make the Red Devils feel a little bit more optimistic about getting more than one point from tonight’s match. One of the most important positive changes is most definitely the change in management structure from Jose Mourinho to Ole Gunner Solskjaer. The positive change in management has evident lead to Manchester United embracing a new attacking approach which completely contradicts the defensive approach Manchester United was operating with under the leadership of Jose Mourinho the last time these two teams met.




Arsenal style of play might not have changed so much from the team that held Manchester United to a 2-2 draw at Old Trafford earlier this season but one thing is for Manchester United is definitely not the same team that faced Arsenal this past December. Manchester United under the management of Ole Gunner Solskjaer plays stronger, faster, efficient football with Manchester United winning rate taking a massive improvement since December 2018. Manchester United might be the away team at the Emirate Stadium but with the high-level performance, Manchester United continue to put into every game since the appointment of Ole Gunner Solskjaer, realistically, Manchester United’s chances of winning tonight’s tie with Arsenal should stand at a higher rate than the officially projected %32 chance of victory.





Manchester United will possibly be looking at a much more improved line up compared to the starting XI players who put up a magnificent performance against Crystal this past Monday evening.  Ole Gunner Solskjaer did provide a little bit of update on the injury news for Manchester United on Friday, March 1 saying that he did not think any of the player currently present in Manchester United’s injury list was fully recovered enough to participate in any matches as of yet.




This would have been disappointing news for Manchester United considering the fact that a large portion of Manchester United’s effectiveness typically come from the injured players currently recovering from various injuries.  However, Ole Gunner Solskjaer earlier this week added some extra positive news for Manchester United adding that the influential winger Anthony Martial will return from injury a play a part in tonight’s match against Arsenal for Manchester United. 




With bigger games against tougher opponents in the Premier League yet to come in the Premier League next month, Ole Gunner Solskjaer will most likely not risk playing the pair of players in Jesse Lingard and  Nemanja Matic whom both will be ready to play in the fast approaching more difficult games against opponents such as Manchester City and Chelsea in the next couple of weeks instead.  





There will be no surprise if Manchester United were to line up with the back four that started against Paris St German which compromised of Eric Bailey, Chris Smalling, Victor Lindelöf and Luke Shaw except the   right back might see the rising star Diogo Dallot coming on for the missing Eric Bailey who picked up an injury during last week’s massive victory over Paris St German. With Jesse Lingard and Nemanja Matic possibly still out of commission and will most likely not be risked even if the duo were fit enough to play.





The beauty in Manchester United under the management of Ole Gunner Solskjaer is that the team seem to have a fiery tenacity to win that the performance level Witten the Manchester United team is barely affected when one or two players are injured and the Manchester United fans will hope to see that fiery tenacity continue tonight at the Emirates Stadium.
