Ole Gunnar Solskjær, the manager of Manchester United, stated that he may have to make tactical changes to improve his team's balance and put an end to their poor performance following the 2-4 defeat to Leicester City in the Premier League last Saturday. The loss for United against Leicester ended their unbeaten run of 29 away matches in the league and increased the pressure on Solskjær, who has led the team to one draw and two losses in their last three matches.
Despite having several star players in his squad, including Cristiano Ronaldo, fans and analysts have criticized Manchester United in recent weeks for lacking identity. Solskjær told the BBC: "During the international break, we took a good look at what has gone wrong lately. But we need to consider the overall composition of the team, its balance; we might need to sacrifice something."
He pointed out, "Recently, we haven't been in good shape. We've lost a lot of points, and that's something we need to study. We may need to change." United's next match is against Atalanta in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, and the manager expressed confidence in his players' ability to respond strongly, although he does not expect an easy match.
The Norwegian coach added, "Every match is important in the league and the Champions League. They are all big matches. Leicester away was a big test just like Atalanta at home." He concluded, "We need to get past it, and we have to make sure we enter the game with a clear mindset. I look at myself in the mirror and ensure that we perform strongly again."
