Antony once again with determination leads United over Forest

United's first true collaborative game piece and they get the goal. Kudos to all three involved there; Martial was hungry to win the ball back and launch himself into space as Fernandes launched himself with the pass. That goal is uncharacteristic of Antony, whose shots tend to be more spectacular, which will make Ten Hag particularly pleased with the way he pulled it off.

Forest have the second-worst defensive record in the top flight, but United seem unaware of that. They are too individualistic in attack, having collaborated so productively three days ago. United seem too big for Sancho. They need a lot more from him against Neco Williams, but he doesn't show much desire to take on the Welsh full-back.

In the good news column, United look like a threat when they can move forward and often carry the ball into positions where they are four against four heading towards the Forest goal. They have had good enough quality chances to score. But they also look vulnerable on the other end, particularly in dead ball situations. Awoniyi had a good chance on a long pitch earlier,

Maguire was lucky not to concede a corner penalty and McKenna just lobbed the ball into the corner post from the other side. Defending those situations is a concern right now.

Sancho has been disappointing

Ten Hag took out the players with a yellow card who were playing against Sevilla, so Harry Maguire will do well to dismiss the game. You can see why Ten Hag is getting impatient with Sancho. He's starting out in his favorite role, has been in shape for months and is still performing well as a starter.
