Aston Villa was defeated by Manchester United by a score of 3-2 on Tuesday, a victory that was a morale booster for the Red Devils. They came back from being two goals behind to capture three points at Old Trafford.
Hojlund scored the game-winning goal for Manchester United, which was his first goal in the Premier League. Garnacho scored the first two goals for Manchester United.
It was a change in the dynamic up front, with Garnacho being deployed on the right, Rashford being deployed on the left, and Hojlund being deployed through the middle. According to the manager, this appears to be the appropriate line-up.
In an interview with Sky Sports, Ten Hag stated, “You always try to find the balance.”
‘The balance on Boxing Day was really nice with Garna on the right, Rasmus in the middle and Marcus Rashford off the left. Hopefully, we can continue that.
“The wingers are not the only ones to consider.” Furthermore, you want the full-backs to be there. However, throughout the first half of the season, we have frequently been required to make concessions. Diogo Dalot is right-footed and on the left side. However, it is not always beneficial for your strikers, despite the fact that it can work very well.
“With Garnacho on the right, you get a right-footer, a different kind of player who can go inside but also go outside,” said the coach.
“We want those dynamics with switching positions, combining, getting in behind, bringing it out of the triangles, and then serving our strikers from there,” said the coach.
Ten Hag stated that Garnacho has preferred to play on the left side of the field, but it appears that he will have to get used to playing on the other wing. This statement was made after the victory over the Villains.
According to Ten Hag, “In the past, he was almost more comfortable playing on the left side of the field, but I believe he is capable of playing on the right side as well.” “I believe that he was on the right side of that right side over the course of the 90 minutes today, and he scored twice.”
On the other hand, I believe that the entire frontline played very well. They made a significant amount of investment in the runs behind, the timings were so much better, and it was continuing to be a threаt for the opponent.
