Man Utd must ditch 0-tackle-won dud who looked like he was ‘running in treacle’ vs Palace, he got torn apart

Once again, Manchester United were beaten in the Premier League, this time by Crystal Palace with a score of 4-0.

And none can deny that it was due. Erik ten Hag’s team was terrible that night, in stark contrast to Oliver Glasner’s.

One great Palace player spent the whole night dragging one Manchester United star around.

Despite Aaron Wan Bissaka of Manchester United applying pressure, Crystal Palace’s Jean Philippe Mateta manages to keep possession of the ball in the Premier League encounter…
Man Utd’s poorest performances include Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Former Crystal Palace player Aaron Wan-Bissaka had a nightmare at Selhurst Park.

Against the Eagles, the right back played on the other wing, and it was blatantly obvious. The Palace onslaught had him utterly bewildered and out of position time and time again.

Some bad numbers from the game reflect his performance.

Played for 90 minutes
Successful passes: 38 out of 55 (69%)
Correct crosses: one third, or 33%
Exact long balls: 0/5 percentage
Only one tackle was won, making it 0% of the total.
We believe Manchester United should consider moving the 26-year-old defender this summer because he cannot seem this unproductive.

Recouping the whole £50 million they paid the Eagles for him is an entirely other matter. Even Sir Jim Ratcliffe and company could be tempted to lavishly reward the individual responsible for his demise.

Micheal Olise ripped him to shreds.
The Red Devils seem to be favourites to recruit Michael Olise, who has been linked with a summer transfer to Manchester United. After this match, that may have changed.

Even though he dominated Wan-Bissaka all night, the Frenchman was probably unimpressed with Manchester United’s first team and their standards.

On Sky Sports commentary, Alan Smith said, when Olise dribbled past Wan-Bissaka early in the second half, that the English right-back seemed to be “running in treacle”—a phrase that would come up often throughout the match.

It’s quite straightforward. Compared to Olise, Wan-Bissaka is not good enough to play for United. During the summer, Mr. Ratcliffe, carry out the task.
