In Erik ten Hag's last 10 European Cup matches, Manchester United only enjoyed the joy of victory once. During Van Nistelrooy's interim period, the team only played 1 Europa League match against PAOK. Playing at home, it was not difficult for the "Red Devils" to gain points against the representative from Greece.
In the 2-0 victory, Amad Diallo scored both goals for the Old Trafford team. If Man United had to struggle to quench their thirst for victory in the European Cup, Amad also experienced a similar feeling in his journey to find an official position in the Red Devils' squad.
"Amad Diallo had a very good time at the end of last season but this season he has been used less by Ten Hag. Up to now, I still find it difficult to understand many of the coach's decisions on using players. There are some potential players but just because of 1-2 bad matches, Ten Hag immediately cuts off their opportunities. This leads to the fact that when that player returns, it will be very difficult to get into the rhythm.
In this match, Amad showed his desire and played with all his ability. The two goals were achieved through great efforts. In this match, Ruud van Nistelrooy made some adjustments but the club still did not play well. Among them, Amad was a rare bright spot" - Commentator Quang Huy shared.
In the match against PAOK, Man United were repeatedly created a storm by the weak opponent in front of Andre Onana's goal. In the previous 2 matches, Van Gol also did not make any major changes in terms of personnel and playing style. Since then, the Dutch strategist has been somewhat underrated in terms of skill.
"In my observation, in terms of tactics or tricks, Van Gol has nothing special. The midfield in recent matches has not played well, and organizing defense from a distance is not safe. Especially in the transition phase, Man United's midfield players are very slow.
Mentally, it is undeniable that Van Nistelrooy's team is doing well, but for the long term, even if Ruben Amorim does not come, I think it is not good at all" - Commentator Quang Huy commented.
The match against PAOK continued to witness a series of good opportunities missed by Man United players. Although the 2-0 victory was a clear margin, many "Red Devils" fans still felt frustrated when watching. Especially for fans in Vietnam, having to stay up at 3am on a weekday to watch their favorite team like that is no different from torture.
"I think even when Amorim arrives, it will be very difficult to create a strong, smooth and lively attack immediately. If anything, let's hold on to what we have now, and then strengthen it in the winter transfer window.
Marcus Rashford is still the same, Alejandro Garnacho needs to develop more, what is Amad Diallo after this sublimation? Bruno Fernandes will be the person I trust the most when Ruben Amorim arrives. They are all Portuguese, Bruno's class is also proven. The problem is how much inspiration this midfielder will reach now" - Commentator Quang Huy shared.
