Is Manchester United an over correction of protection carriers

On July 17, Manchester United officially announced that the transfer with Ajax's Argentinian center back Rosalind Martinez has finally been reached. The transfer of Martinez was finally reached.

Ajax officials said the transfer fee is 57.37 million euros, plus floating clauses up to 67.37 million euros.

Glissando's height is only 1 meter 75, and more importantly, his main position is center back.

Following the 80 million signing of Aguirre, 67.37 million signed Rosalind, are Manchester United protecting the carrier's corrective overkill?

For one, Glissando's ability to stare, intercept and get out of the way as a center back is what makes him the best player in the Dutch league at only 175 tall.

In 2019, Rosalind joined Ajax, playing for Ajax for three seasons, Rosalind 118 games in all competitions, contributing 6 goals and 6 assists, and was elected the best player of the year in 2021/22 season.

Because of the obvious gap between the strong and weak in the Dutch league, Glissando's offensive data does not have much significance to draw from, but as a center back, Rosalind played such data, which already shows the comprehensiveness of his ability.

In the world of football, the conditions that a small center back must have to be able to gain a foothold are: strong physical quality, strong core strength, and strong carding ability.

From Bares, Navarro, to Cordoba Ayala, to Maraschino, this series of world-class small central defenders are all the same.

And compared to these predecessors, Glissando is definitely an overstatement to say he is the best 175 on the ground. His technical characteristics make him more suitable for the current era of high pressure soccer.

Rosalind also has strong interception ability, and more importantly, he has the ability to carry and play the ball, which is most lacking in this era of high pressure soccer.

Second, from last season's problems, we know the reason why United signed Rosalind after bargaining with Arsenal.

In the 2020/21 season, Solderer led Manchester United's success in the second half of the season, one of the most important reasons is the team's fast striking play, so that the strongest teams play to throw up.

And the arrival of Crosby last season made United walk into the abyss, because Crosby's team was not allowed to have a defensive style of play.

So, Manchester United started the aggressive attacking soccer

However, because C Lou's age made him no longer have the minimum defensive ability in front of the field, United's midfield lost the first defensive barrier.

Too many goals conceded by United last season were eaten by the opponent's counter-attack. The standard pattern was to lose the ball up front because of the lack of front-line defense, resulting in the middle of the field where Fred and Nominator, two defenders who are not very good at defending, were easily played through more and less, while United's center backs, whether Aguirre, Vane or Linden, had to rush out of the box frequently to make up for it.

This problem has plagued United for a season, even after the arrival of Rang nick, because the players' bitterness towards an interim coach is totally the choice of springing over the donkey's ears, leading to the team's total loss of control in both attack and defense.

I personally think that Manchester United signed Rosalind, the first choice will put him in the back position, because the current Fred and Nominator, in the end, are not up to the requirements of high-pressure kicking, two players forward awareness is obviously too strong.

The reason why Manchester United signed Rosalind after Arsenal's continuous bargain, rather than spend almost half of the planned 45 million more than the money, is to solve the team's back problem. Previously Solderer has been quarreling for two seasons for this reason, and now the premium price to sign Rosalind is not because Tenth's face is big enough, but because the professionalism of the team management plus the heavy loss of the Champions League, so that the Glaser family and Arnold finally learn to learn from the pain.

Third, from the signing of Rosalind, we can probably expect the inevitability of United's high pressure kicking next season.

Now United and Barcelona are in a tug-of-war over the transfer of Frankie DE Jon. DE Jon's transfer tug-of-war continues.

On July 15, Manchester United officially signed Danish midfielder Erik sen.

With the arrival of Erik sen, United's midfield for next season completely fills the void left by Pogo's departure, and Erickson's output is much more stable compared to the Frenchman's scattered nature.

Before Hasten signed for United, Hasten stated his footballing philosophy of changing the defensive soccer that United has played since Mourning and Solderer, and that he therefore needed more technical midfielders.

The United midfield in Stench's plan, from Van Dee Eek and Erik sen to Franck DE Jon, is a technical midfield. DE Jon, the technical midfield, can completely change last season's team can only rely on the side of the breakthrough and C Lou's so-called aura of attack reliance.

And now the arrival of Rosalind, on the one hand, can change the status quo of the low speed of Manchester United's central defensive carrier everywhere, on the other hand, the team's high-pressure kicking, meaning that Manchester United's three central defenders high-pressure kicking has become inevitable.

Lisandro's uplift has become a great probability.

Now in Tenth's opinion, the team still needs to upgrade the front line, because even if the Martial's have performed heroically in the ore-season warm-ups, but the equivalent of these warm-up stars is still far from enough.

Yesterday Cairo's team has denied that Cairo will return to Sporting Portugal this season.

Although Tench has publicly expressed his desire for Crosby to stay with the team, Crosby will basically lose his starting position, and at the very least, his playing time will not be guaranteed.

Because, now C Lou, although the muscle is still there, but his body function, indeed, is aging at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Not to mention the Manchester United under the rule of Hasten, with the current high pressure all over the PL, C Lou has not even the strength to play on any team in the PL as a starter.

From now on, the management of Manchester United is obedient to the words of Hasten, basically the management of Manchester United has probably made a basic trade-off between commercial interests and team performance.

Within two seasons, United will definitely not be a title contender, but if Cairo leaves, it will mean United's complete abandonment of their net minder status.

The real money of the Champions League has finally made the team management come to their senses.

Hopefully, Tenth's medicine will have an immediate effect on United's disease.
