Manchester United had a dismal season last time out under David Moyes after Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement. Louis Van Gaal was appointed for this season to sort things out and bring Man United as title challengers again after finishing 7th last time out. United have had a great pre-season winning all the games and defeating likes of Real Madrid and Liverpool.
But they have been really poor, have played 4 games in this season, 3 Premier League and 1 Capital One Cup game against M K Dons, and United have lost 2 drawn 2 with 4-0 defeat to M K Dons, that is disgraceful for a club like Man Utd with all due respect to their opponents.
Man Utd’s EPL campaign started with a defeat at home against Swansea followed with a 1-1 draw at Sunderland, while recently they got a goal-less draw against Burnley where United’s record signing Angel Di Maria had a debut in an United jersey. From these 4 games we can see that United’s defense lacks courage while United’s entire team lacks leadership and motivation. There is no chemistry even after having such a huge amount of talent at the disposal. LvG has a proven track record and when he stated it will take 3 months, he knows at the level this team is right now.
The Red Devils have got Radamel Falcao on a season loan of 12 million pounds and he is a great goal scoring machine up front. Javier Hernandez has gone to Real Madrid on loan but United will not miss him with Falcao in who might replace RvP who doesn’t look fit and is probably going to have a knee surgery. United have also bought Daley Blind to play the midfield position, so overall the team does look pretty good and can challenge for top 4 after building chemistry under Louis Van Gaal. We have to just wait and watch.
