Erik ten Hag 危険s 燃やすing out his 星/主役にする players by not 回転/交替ing his Man 部隊d team in the Europa League... he 主張するs on strong 味方するs and going 'all out for victory' meaning likes of 先頭 de Beek, Elanga and 学院 希望に満ちたs don't get a look-in

  • Erik ten Hag once again fielded a strong line-up against Omonia Nicosia
  • Man 部隊d coach hasn't 適用するd 原則 of squad rotation to Europa League?
  • Likes of Bruno Fernandes, David de Gea and Ronaldo are ひどく 伴う/関わるd
  • But they're also 要求するd to play high-intensity 首相 League games と一緒に
  • It doesn't help that 部隊d have been left playing catch-up to 勝利,勝つ their group
  • But the schedule this season isn't going to get any いっそう少なく 激しい after World Cup?

'All out for the victory. The first game is the most important.'

Erik ten Hag's 返答 to a question about whether he would 回転/交替 his squad for Thursday night's home Europa League fixture with Omonia Nicosia was a laudable one.

It could be taken as an 指示,表示する物 that 基準s are rising once again at Manchester 部隊d. Winning at all costs is the club's mantra, as it used to be.

Manchester United once again fielded a strong XI in the UEFA Europa League as they took on Cypriot minnows Omonia Nicosia at Old Trafford on Thursday night

部隊d boss Erik ten Hag has 拒絶するd the 適切な時期 to 回転/交替 his team in the Europa League

But the Dutchman's very strong team 選択 for the 会合 with the Cypriots - and indeed his 不本意 to make changes 一般に for the Europa League - also raises 関心s.


If Ten Hag continues to rely on his 星/主役にする 指名するs in every 選び出す/独身 fixture, making them play three games each week, it could easily come 支援する to bite him ーに関して/ーの点でs of 傷害s and burnout.

And it 危険s 疎遠にするing those on the fringes of 部隊d's squad, those who might have 推定する/予想するd 正規の/正選手 game time in the Europa League but who aren't 伴う/関わるd at all.

Ten Hag's XI on Thursday night was 理解できる in some ways. 部隊d really could do with finishing 最高の,を越す of their group, ahead of Real Sociedad, to 避ける 直面するing a 支持する/優勝者s League 減少(する)-out in the play-off 一連の会議、交渉/完成する in February.

部隊d are rightly considered の中で the favourites to 勝利,勝つ the Europa League but, as things stand, they could run headlong into Barcelona, Sevilla, Atletico Madrid, Juventus or AC Milan in this extra two-legged tie.

Another factor is that さまざまな players are 現在/一般に out with 傷害 - Harry Maguire, Donny 先頭 de Beek, Anthony 戦争の and Aaron 病弱な-Bissaka - which 限られた/立憲的な Ten Hag's 選択s.

But this isn't anything new. Ten Hag has 選ぶd strong 味方するs 権利 through the group 段階 to date, even when other 選択s were 利用できる.

Cristiano Ronaldo has started all four games, as has Antony. First choice players like David de Gea, Diogo Dalot and Tyrell Malacia the same.

Bruno Fernandes has started three of the games and come on in the other, same with Christian Eriksen. Casemiro has been ひどく 伴う/関わるd, while Marcus Rashford started on Thursday.

Cristiano Ronaldo has started all four of United's Europa League games but scored only once

Given how 部隊d struggled both home and away against Omonia - 要求するing a 93rd-minute 勝利者 from Scott McTominay at Old Trafford - maybe this strength is needed.

But it 代表するs a 際立った 出発 from previous 部隊d 経営者/支配人s, who used the Europa League as a chance to 残り/休憩(する) the big players, give 適切な時期s to the squad and still 達成するd 進歩.

部隊d 明白に would rather be in the 支持する/優勝者s League but 最近の seasons have seen them 勝利,勝つ the Europa League in 2017, reach the 半分-決勝戦 in 2020 and the final in 2021.

But the real 手段 of their 進歩 in Ten Hag's first season will be in whether they finish in the 首相 League 最高の,を越す four - and this is where problems could arise.

The likes of Rashford, Antony, Ronaldo, Malacia, Dalot, Lisandro Martinez, De Gea and Casemiro will be called upon when 部隊d host Newcastle on Sunday.

It means another quick turnaround between games when in the past Thursday nights usually saw the 主要な players on the (法廷の)裁判 or left out the squad.

The modern footballer should be more than 有能な of playing three times in seven games but if 部隊d's 傷害 名簿(に載せる)/表(にあげる) starts to 開始する, then a 欠如(する) of rotation will be a major 原因(となる).

And what does it say about Ten Hag's 約束 in the 残り/休憩(する) of his squad?

If the likes of Luke Shaw, Tom Heaton, Anthony Elanga and Facundo Pellistri can't get into the team for a home game with minnow like Omonia, then what chance do they have of ever playing?

Aaron Wan-Bissaka's days at United look numbered too as he struggles to get a place

Aaron 病弱な-Bissaka's days at 部隊d look numbered too as he struggles to get a place

If they were fit, you'd imagine 病弱な-Bissaka and 先頭 de Beek would be in the same 状況/情勢.

先頭 de Beek would reasonably have hoped a 再会 with his former boss at Ajax would lead to more game time.

But he played a mere 19 minutes before 選ぶing up his 現在の muscle 傷害 and 部隊d have 追加するd Casemiro and Eriksen to their midfield to good 影響.

病弱な-Bissaka has played a mere four minutes of football for 部隊d this season and it's (疑いを)晴らす Ten Hag みなすs him 黒字/過剰 to 必要物/必要条件s.?

Elanga enjoyed a 打開 (選挙などの)運動をする in 2021-22 and after Ten Hag played him earlier in the season, he seems stuck on the (法廷の)裁判 again both 国内で and in Europe.?

In the past, Europa League games were a 証明するing ground for youngsters at 部隊d.

During the 2019-20 (選挙などの)運動をする, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer started the likes of James 獲得する, Ethan Laird, Angel Gomes, Tahith Chong, Dylan Levitt and Timothy Fosu-Mensah in the Europa League.

But the likes of Pellistri, Zidane Iqbal, Alejandro Garnacho , Charlie McNeill and Teden Mengi will find it difficult to even get a look-in this season.

It's impossible to know whether one of these youngsters would have 供給するd the 誘発する 部隊d needed on Thursday night.

Given that 部隊d didn't make the 打開 until their 34th 発射 of the evening, they may 井戸/弁護士席 have done.

It may have been a different story had 部隊d beaten Real Sociedad in their first group game.?

That 1-0 敗北・負かす, on a strange evening just hours after the Queen's death, left them playing catch-up にもかかわらず three その後の 勝利,勝つs.

But with Ten Hag insistent that the next match is always the most important, rotation may 井戸/弁護士席 have been 極小の anyway.

Unfortunately for him, the season isn't going to become any いっそう少なく 激しい. 部隊d could have 15 or more players 長,率いるing to Qatar for next month's World Cup.

Then the 国内の season will be playing catch-up 権利 through until May with 部隊d and everyone else playing every 選び出す/独身 週末 and midweek.

If they 結局最後にはーなる competing in the 首相 League, Europa League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup, 部隊d will have no let-up and there will be 巨大な 緊張する on Ten Hag's 主要な players.

It feels an 適切な時期 has been 行方不明になるd d uring the group 行う/開催する/段階s to 残り/休憩(する) and 回転/交替 - Ten Hag will have to hope his 'all out for the victory' approach doesn't backfire during the 決定的な final 段階 of the season.
