Subsequent fixture postponements suggest that pundits have not yet understood Ralf Rangnick’s tactical revolution at Manchester United.
Manchester United will be travelling to Newcastle. Newcastle has been at a poor form.
But during the 1-0 victories over Crystal Palace and Norwich City, there are signs the German plans to change the team’s strategy and what possible to see at Newcastle United on Monday.
The most noticeable disparity has been a change of formation.
Rangnick has changed Man Utd's formation from 4-2-3-1 to 4-2-2-2.
Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl used the same formation while Rangnick uses Cristiano Ronaldo and Marcus Rashford as front two.
United also utilises twin No 10s kept as inverted wide men, with the freedom to swap positions.
Jadon Sancho and Bruno Fernandes are the ones performing those roles.
Manchester United now hopes to press in a collaborative way high up the pitch, making it extremely hard for Palace to play through the middle.
As a result of this vastly-improved pressing game, United’s attacking players got on the ball much more frequently in progressive areas against Palace.
The Game will be live on DSTV premier League and beIN Sports.
