Tottenham and Man United, Two Clubs with Declining Performance

DBasia.news –  Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United are two Premier League teams whose performance is currently declining.

Over time, the two clubs seemed to lose control. The results on the field are also getting worse. Neither United nor Spurs were immediately called a crisis.

Seeing what happens, it is natural that Manchester United and Tottenham are said to be in trouble. But who is the problem deeper?

Squad

If you look at the squad they have this season, United’s problem is somewhat more severe than Spurs. Even some say that United’s current team is the worst after being left by Sir Alex Ferguson.

Last season Man Utd ended the season with a weak squad. Then the condition worsened with the departure of Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez without an equivalent replacement. In short, the current squad is still below the standard for a club of United’s caliber.

How about Tottenham? Indeed in terms of the squad, Spurs currently have no problems. They still have qualified players like Harry Kane, Dele Alli, Christian Eriksen, Son Heung Min, and Toby Alderweireld.

Player Transfers

As a club, Manchester United has an advantage compared to the others: Popularity and money. United are believed to have no difficulty in getting players in this world despite the current conditions.

The latest news is that United already have plans to bring in new players in the next transfer window.

Something similar did not happen at Tottenham. It’s no secret that Christian Eriksen wants to leave the club. Later, with the current condition of Spurs, other players have reportedly been troubled.

In contrast to United, Spurs will have difficulty buying substitutes if they are completely abandoned by the pillars.

Club owner

Tottenham fans may be furious at club owner David Levy for being stingy spending players spending money, but on the other hand, they understand that Levy is a businessman who knows how to achieve results without a large investment.

Levy decided to skimp on player spending. However, it is more because he has spent around 1 billion pounds to build a new stadium. Evidently, the beginning of this season Spurs has spent approximately 102 million pounds to bring in new players.

In the stronghold of United, supporters no longer believe in the Glazer family who have a club and Ed Woodward as vice-chairman. The club is not stingy in spending players, but they do without planning, merely to reduce the anxiety of fans.

Transfer and management decisions are in the spotlight as Man United’s performance slumps.

Manager

The crisis that plagued Tottenham was a surprise for most people. The reason they see Mauricio Pochettino as a qualified manager. Last season’s achievement with a team without a new player is proof of Pochettino’s expertise.

The situation is different in Manchester United with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. When compared directly, of course, Solskjaer can not be equated with Pochettino.

Although he was able to reap the glorious results when he was still a temporary coach, Solskjaer arguably did not bring change. Even the majority of fans could not find a logical reason why the coach who brought relegated Cardiff City was believed to revive a club as big as Manchester United.
