Premier League legend Cesc Fabregas has questioned Manchester United manager Erik Turnhach’s ability.
“Fabregas, who played for Chelsea and Arsenal in the past, insisted that Manchester United had a plan under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in the past, but Turnhach did not seem to have.” said the British Tribune on the 2nd.
According to the media, Fabregas said, “I don’t know about Turnhach’s game plan. I don’t even know what kind of structure he has,” pointing out that Turnhach is worse than Solskjaer in the past.
Turnhach, a Dutch coach, proved his leadership at Ajax, the prestigious league in his country’s league. He won the league title in the 2018-19 season and became a sensation by reaching the semifinals of the UEFA Champions League. In the 2020-21 and 2021-22 seasons, he won two consecutive league titles, opening the heyday of Ajax.
In the process, he discovered young players such as Andre Onana, Frenkie Duryong, Donny van derbyk, and Matthijs Dericht, and was considered excellent in his ability to foster players.
In particular, his tactical ability was praised. He reinterpreted it in a modern soccer style by inheriting the total soccer player of his country’s legend Johan Cruyff. Ajax’s advance to the Champions League semifinals was supported by Turnhach’s tactical ability.
Manchester United showed great interest in Turnhach, who has emerged as one of the most well-known coaches in Europe. Manchester United, which had been steadily weakening after Alex Ferguson, replaced Solskjaer and set up a team under interim coach Ralf Rangnick. He wanted to restore his old glory by giving Turnhach the baton from the new season.
After receiving a love call from Manchester United, Turnhach took over as Manchester United’s head coach in the summer of 2022. His first season was not bad. He won the League Cup and managed to escape without spectators after the 2016-17 season.
However, the team has shown sluggish performance this season. The team repeatedly failed to score goals due to string injuries of key players and sluggish performances of key strikers, and gave up the number of goals lost. With 26 matches played in the league, the team ranks sixth with 14 wins, two draws and 10 losses, but it has shown poor performance in both offense and defense with 36 goals and 36 goals lost.
Losing the upcoming Manchester derby with Manchester City will make the competition for the fourth place even more difficult. In this situation, Fabregas has questioned Turnhach’s ability to manage. 안전 토토사이트
“Solskjaer’s United at least had a structure or plan. I could see his plan to defend well and counterattack. But I don’t see him like this at the moment,” Fabregas said.
“We can’t just look at one game, but there is a perception that Manchester City is still very strong, while Manchester United is not. At the moment, I don’t think it’s a solid team,” he said. “Looking back at the match against Fulham, it was a game that rang alarm bells for Manchester United for a very long time. The best team doesn’t give up that much opportunity for 60 minutes. It shows that something is lacking for Manchester United.”
“I don’t know about Turnhach’s game plan and I don’t know if he has a structure. I don’t know what Turnhach’s message is,” he said. “If this happens to our team, it will be like a lot of alarm bells ringing.” He pointed out that Manchester United’s current problem is Turnhach.
