The double against West Ham was the right reminder that Bruno Fernandes sent to Ruben Amorim. All plans of the Captain MU should avoid affecting the Portuguese midfielder's attacking ability.
It is possible that the appearance of Maheus CuHa and Bryan Mbeumo will strengthen MU. But not so lightly overlooking the attacking role of Bruno Fernandes, who imprinted the shoes on 38 goals last season (19 goals, 19 assists). Two goals against West Ham – one from a penalty, one from the delicate ball from outside the penalty area – still highlighted the number one offensive star.
It was the match that Bruno and Cunha combined quite well right behind Rasmus Hojlund. Both the tactical thinking and the creativity of Bruno and Cunha have similarity and easily connected. While in the middle, the midfielders Kobbie Mainoo and Manuel Ugarte clean and master quite well in the middle area. Amorim's 3-4-2-1 preferred chart has worked smoothly at a period when the players are still looking for a beat. It is important that the idea of combining the midfielder attacked Bruno – Cunha began to bear fruit.
But that was not A Amorim's A plan. As long as Mbeumo is healthy and plays, the Captain MU will pull Bruno Fernandes down to the central midfielder. The pair of public midfielders will then be Mbeumo and Cunha. In terms of personnel, it is clear that Amorim is trying to resolve the payroll for all stars. And in that theory is the promising solution when Mbeumo and Cunha are played in the forte. Bruno backed down the midfielder to promote the ability to polish and launch attacks.
However, this option also has many potential risks. The MU system will become unbalanced between the work and the defense capability is affected. And more importantly, MU's most dangerous fuse was overcome because of playing too far from the opponent's goal. If Bruno Fernandes is no longer a source of goals, who will speak out? Expected on the Cunha and Mbeumo synonymously exchanged time for these two rookies to integrate.
Amorim was originally a test person, he would find another option if the pulling Bruno backwards was not effective. But Amorim can avoid the test that affects MU's stability by considering Bruno as the center of all plans. At that time, let the 30 -year -old midfielder play at the forte as a public midfielder. Mbeumo pushed up the striker to wait rather than Hojlund.
The middle line will then belong to Mainoo, Ugarte or the old Casemiro. Of course all three names are not guaranteed to be reliable. Mainoo is too young, Ugarte has not proven the role and Casemiro has been on the other side of the slope. But MU still has a month of the summer transfer window to bring back a central midfielder, a person who recovers the ball and keeps the beat.
Instead of adjusting Bruno to serve the diagram, build a diagram around Bruno. That's what the previous coaches at MU have forgotten and have to pay the price. Amorim only needs to hold the decision “Bruno is the center”. All plans will come from. Let the leader MU play his best football.
