Manchester United had a game against Chelsea that showed a version far from what it really is, they were far superior in their visit to Stamford Bridge, they managed to have a lot of association with their attacking midfielders, they made many plays that opened spaces, the problem came once again at the time of defining, a big problem with the last games of Man Utd.

Now they have looked to have a game where they played a great game, they made a lot of clear options difficult, the team's offense did not find a way to be more forceful in their options they create, the midfielders take the main role of the team in attack, they have been very insistent with the way they play creating opportunities to be more effective, the team has been saved from losing in the last few weeks.
