Ten Hag really dare Manchester City

Licenseable

The same pattern that Eric Ten Hag used to beat Arsenal, he thought he can use the same thing to beat Manchester United, not knowing that it can't ever work because Arsenal just made mistake by leaving the back and Manchester United used counter attack to beat Arsenal of which Arsenal played very well that day. So, Ten Hag see Manchester City and Manchester United as mate and that's is why he played attacking game against Manchester City. That is even what Paul Scoles (Manchester United ex player) said, he said that it's not that Ten Hag respect Manchester City at all because what people are saying is Ten Hag respect Manchester City, if Ten Hag really respect Manchester City, he won't dare play attacking game with the club.

Olé Gunner Solskjear is the one that always beat Manchester City and the way he does it is always different, he won't ever attack, the formation that he always use is 4 defenders, 5 midfielders, and just a striker. He marks with the midfielders and once they have any opportunity, they utilise it. Olé Gunner Solskjear don't dare attack Manchester United, it is after Manchester United have enough goals that Olé Gunner Solskjear does change formation. Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho and Anthony that are at the wing aren't a winger that can come back to help the defenders like Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Matineli does at Arsenal.

Even if you think you can mark or play, Manchester City would still play frustration game, they marks in multiple, they always come in multiple, and if they would attack, they still attacks in multiple. In that match, when Kyle Walker attacked, he attacked with Phil Foden, Joan Cancelo too came with Jack Grealish, De Bruyne and Eling Haaland stays to collect ball then Bernardo Silver rolls in the midfield so goals would definitely be much. It was when they were substituted that Manchester United later score the goals that they were able to score and it's normal to do changes because they needed to rest for the next international match that they played.

So people are not right by saying Eric Ten Hag respect their opponents, if he really respect the opponents, he would soak pressure by not attacking Manchester City like he did, thinking Manchester City is like Arsenal and the match has really teach Arsenal a lot of lesson because Arsenal can't play such game again, they can't dare leave the defense line again like they did in that match ever again, even Mikel Arteta said he didn't expect that kind of game from Manchester United and he added that it's a lesson for the team and we'll know if they've really learnt a lesson when they play against Liverpool on Sunday because Liverpool attacks even more than Manchester United.
