“The more you work, the luckier you will be”, explains the protagonist of the series Ted Lasso. A character that many of the Manchester United footballers sarcastically compare with their assistant manager, Chris Arms, according to ESPN. “It’s Ted Lasso…” they say. The American arrived in winter to accompany Ralf Rangnick on the bench, but has become an unusual protagonist in the Mancunian team’s training sessions. Precisely the preparation sessions would be the main reason for complaint of the Old Trafford staff, which according to the same information, would have been cataloged as “old-fashioned” Rangnick’s methods.
The bewilderment is total in the United dressing room, which does not approve of the training sessions proposed by the German coach, based on eleven versus eleven work, and that lacks exercises with more dynamism. This preparation, the same sources maintain, does not contribute to improving individually, which upsets some of the priests of the squad.. However, Rangnick’s organization has begun to pay off, and in the 12 games since he took over, Old Trafford’s men have conceded just nine goals. A great improvement compared to the last 12 duels directed by Solskjaer, in which they conceded 24 goals.
Despite the good work of the defense, the problems would be on the other side of the field. The team led by Cristiano Ronaldo is costing more than necessary to score -the same Portuguese player has only scored eight goals so far in the Premier-. Scoring two or more goals is becoming a headache for Rangnick’s men, who have only managed it in three of those 12 games. His problems with the goal are conditioned to United, who in the last duel against Burnley failed to go from 1-1. Hence, the locker room calls for urgent measures…
