Mourinho Wrong Strategy, MU Lose

Manchester United (MU) should feel the 1-2 defeat of Manchester City in the Manchester derby.

A defeat that could have been prevented if Mourinho is not "experiment" with tactical implementation.

Despite a record of the meeting were not so good when tactic collided with Pep Guardiola, Jose Mourinho with United actually entered the derby with slightly more favored conditions.

The absence of Sergio Aguero and not achieving a clean sheet for three games earlier Man City in the Premier League is inversely proportional to the condition of MU.

 Mourinho's men staring sharpness capital derby with Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who scored three goals in three games earlier MU.

Rooney et al also underwent two consecutive games without conceding.

Simply put MU ahead psychologically in terms of attack and defense.

So when MU tasted defeat 1-2 in the inaugural derby involving Mourinho and Guardiola, The Special One mistake in formulating the strategy can hardly be denied as the main cause of the defeat of Rooney et al.

Mourinho looks blunders in the preparation of the early starters in the tough match prestigious class Manchester derby.

 Instead of maintaining the winning team that has proven to give positive results, Mou actually change the structure of the initial eleven players.

Although they play a 4-2-3-1 pattern, a trio of attacking midfielders supporting Ibra is usually occupied by Juan Mata, Rooney Martial and two personnel changes where the position is replaced Mkhitaryan Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard position Martial.

Mkhitaryan placements that are considered more capable of physical play than Juan Mata is intended to resist the penetration of a defender and midfielder wing City.

The reality?

Mkhitaryan often lost the ball and a couple of times to find the wing area they inhabit become one of the main exposure City attack in the first half.

On the other side of the wing, and even direct placement Lingard make united fans wince.

Martial was not yet able to repeat last season's performance in the first three games of Manchester United, but he had already become a unit of unity in the composition of the three attacking midfielders behind Ibra.

Especially in international matches pause, Martial capable of scoring goals for the team, which means showed that young French stayed hot wait alone.

The more surprising because Mou does not even try to put in the position of Martial whereas Rashford scorer MU victory over Hull City was also on fire after scoring a goal with England U-21.

The Special One must admit the decision to change the initial starter was a blunder.

Blunder Mou evident when within 45 minutes of the first half to make MU Lingard as if they were playing with 10 men.

Lingard did not contribute to the game MU.

Either nightmare what happened Lingard to play very ugly.

MU fans in the stadium even caught on camera shouting at the young man so often make mistakes fundamentally hurt the team.

Lingard probably should be "grateful" to Daley Blind who participated spotlight on two Goals City to goalkeeper David De Gea.

The first Goal City strikingly demonstrated negligence Blind in anticipation of the movement De Bruyne, while welcoming the feed side of the area Kolarov City defense.

De Bruyne cut the ball and creates a pathway to deal with De Gea in the penalty box.

Worse, Blind reacted resigned to not move quickly catch Bruyne.

Luke Shaw, who was outside the track behind Stand Bruyne instead ran an all-out chase Bruyne who already conquered De Gea.

Blind again be "suspect" in the City's second goal.

 Iheanacho position that had been offside on an attack City's penalty box MU is on side due to delays Blind ride.

Blind short story has damaged his impressive performance in three games earlier MU.

Magically if Blind Chris Smailing still positions in MU next game.

Apart from "contributions Blind" in two goals City, Manchester's performance was no better than City.

The dominance of Possession City several times led to attacks that make the heart beat faster MU fans.

Mourinho oversight paid off in the second half when the Special One to change the composition of the players.

Still in a 4-2-3-1 formation, release and Lingard Mkhitaryan replaced by Rashford and Herrera.

The entry of these two names make Pogba forward became one of three attacking midfielders alongside Rooney and Rashford and Hererra into a double pivot joint Fellaini.

 This makes the rotation MU attacks increasingly sharp in the second half and several times pose a threat to goalkeeper Claudio Bravo who looked nervous in his debut match in the Premier League.

Duet Herrera and Fellaini are also quite able to fortify the MU defense from attacks City.

Pogba position which is right behind Ibra and shift Rooney to the side of the wing as well as strengthen the midfield MU as the MU movement turned into a 4-2-3-1 formation 4-3-3 where Ibra, Rashford and Rooney so attacking trio backed trio Pogba Fellaini and Herrera.

Although in the end be offset City in the second round, Manchester United not to equalize the score and must be resigned to losing the final result 1-2.

What tactics Guardiola is better than Mourinho with this victory?

It seemed the result of the match can be different if Mourinho did not experiment changing the composition of the early starters.

Mourinho offered a change of strategy could be planned for the anticipated absence of Sergio Aguero recognized Mourinho should devise tactics troubled him.

"With the absence of Aguero we must rethink analyze the game that will be applied City" said Mourinho.

Unfortunately, instead of lowering the best team that has proven to serve the City is "lame" without Aguero, Mou actually play different teams that later proved bandwagon to make MU limping in the first round, round which all Goals City born and MU is not capable of displaying games their best.

Mou wrong strategy and Manchester United had lost.
