In their recent match, Manchester United only managed to win one of their last six Premier League games. Despite this, they had less possession than their opponents, Burnley, who are fighting against relegation. Manchester United took the lead with Antony’s goal after 79 minutes, but their inability to maintain possession has raised concerns about their playing style and abilities under manager Ten Hag.
Throughout the season, United’s tendency to concede a high number of shots has been evident. However, the fact that they had less possession than a relegation-threatened team at their home ground was unexpected. The Red Devils only controlled the ball for 48% of the game, while Burnley held 52% possession despite playing away.
After the match, United’s manager expressed disappointment at giving away their winning position. He acknowledged that every team gives up opportunities but emphasized that United also created numerous chances and are one of the most dynamic and entertaining teams in the league at the moment. Despite their performance, losing control of the game was deemed unnecessary.
