Still fasting for a victory at Old Trafford, Manchester United miss the supporters’ screams

DBasia.news – Manchester United have yet to win their first home win in the 2020-2021 Premier League. The Red Devils were only able to draw 0-0 at home to Chelsea at Old Trafford, Saturday (24/10).

The match against Chelsea is Manchester United’s third chance to play as host at the start of this season. The previous two matches ended in defeat.

No wonder Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team is trying to end this bad trend. This can be seen with the determination shown by Marcus Rashford and his colleagues on the field.

Manchester United did dominate the game. They also created a number of golden opportunities even though none of them resulted in goals.

Solskjaer assessed that his team played much better than the previous two home games. However, there is an x ​​factor that still made Manchester United’s appearance not perfect.

The x-factor that Solskjaer meant was the screams of supporters. He believes that if Old Trafford is full of spectators, then his team will appear more successfully.

“The two teams that played in Europe this week, I think it showed in the first half. But in the second we continued to improve,” Solskjaer told Sky Sports.

“If the Stretford End is full (with supporters) we might get some help and get the ball over the line. We pegged them and created some half-decent chances.”

It must be admitted that Manchester United’s appearance is still not very strong. The players seem to miss the support of the supporters so they can’t go all out.

This is inversely proportional to Manchester United’s classy record away from home. They have won 10 consecutive matches at home.

“If we have the Stretford End behind the goal it will create more pressure and more urgency. With the fans here, they help you and we miss them,” he added.

“I think everyone agrees that there is something missing in football today. You watch games and it’s a different sport.”

Solskjaer of course must immediately find a solution to break the negative trend of Manchester United at home games. That is because the British government is unlikely to allow spectators to return to the stadium any time soon.
