#7 Manchester United are playing good football but just cannot win
Trending
Jose Mourinho made it clear that he wants Manchester United to play the football they are renowned for and has done his best living up to his words. The Red Devils have dominated in all of their last five games, but have only managed to win one. In all fairness to Jose, he has fixed Manchester United’s midfield problems as Michael Carrick, Ander Herrera, Juan Mata, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Paul Pogba has all stepped up.
However, the Red Devils, like all Jose Mourinho teams have tried to defend their lead after scoring. The issue with Manchester United, unlike previous Jose Mourinho teams in that their defence is simply not good enough to sit back and hold onto a one goal lead. To make matters worse this weekend, Marouane Fellaini’s substitution completely backfired as Manchester United conceded late to draw yet again.
#8 Burnley are terrible away from home
While Sean Dyche’s Burnley have been fantastic at Turf Moor making it one of the toughest ground to play football in, the Clarets have otherwise been very poor away from home. The newly promoted team has failed to win away from home and picked up only one point on the road so far this season – against Manchester Untied.
Manager Sean Dyche openly spoke about his team’s poor away form and recognised it as something they have to improve on. With Burnley aiming to stay in the Premier League, picking up important points on the road are going to be vital. Burnley will now play West Ham United, Tottenham, Manchester City and Arsenal on the road and it looks like they won't be picking up points away from home soon.
