The Tactics Show: Stop the Press?

Description

#1041 | Ed and Dharnish dig into United’s draw with Everton. The buildup through Mainoo and Tielemans was as good as it's looked in years but Carrick’s side lacked any real box presence, with Cunha and Bruno both dropping deep. Defensively, United's press still isn't working, and disconnected lines left gaps that led directly to both Everton goals. How can Carrick fit all his in-form attackers together without sacrificing the buildup that's making United so watchable? Then there’s a preview of a huge week ahead: the Champions League opener against Sabah, then City at Old Trafford, where sitting deeper and playing on the counter looks like the best plan. 0:00 Intro: Everton 2-2 United 2:07 Buildup and central progression 5:10 Box presence and the final third 8:01 Picking the best XI 11:59 Pressing problem 15:39 Goals conceded and game management 19:02 Substitutions and Carrick's decisions 21:51 Champions League draw and the derby --- Ready to have an AI that can tackle real work?
