When running at pace with a bouncy ball the best way to control it is pinch the ball with your foot and the ground. Every good player knows this. For some reason Rashford thinks it's best to control the ball while it's in the air. I really don't get it. Even if he uses his foot and not his shin it's very difficult.
There are two players who look really skillful with the ball. Antony is one, but he rarely creates goal scoring opportunities. The other is Hojlund and we can't get him the ball enough.
I can't believe we still have a serious problem in midfield. Amrabat looks good with a definite ceiling. Eriksen is good for 30 to 40 minutes. Casemiro plays like he's 40. Bruno gives the ball away too much. ETH can't figure out how to use Mount. McT has a terrible first touch and pass. I think every team we play has a better midfield than we do.
I sure hope the teenage Mainoo is an answer. Otherwise, we can expect bad performances all season.
