Manchester United: Erik ten Hag scratching head - Paul Robinson

Former England goalkeeper Paul Robinson criticizes Manchester United's failure to build on a win, citing lack of creativity and consistency.

Former England goalkeeper Paul Robinson has expressed his disappointment in Manchester United's failure to capitalize on their Boxing Day victory over Aston Villa. The team's manager, Erik ten Hag, made only one change to the lineup for their subsequent match against Nottingham Forest, but the team's performance was lackluster and they suffered a 2-1 defeat.

Robinson noted that this is a recurring pattern for Manchester United, where a good performance and win is often followed by a defeat. He highlighted the team's inability to string together consistent results and their struggles to perform well in away matches. Robinson criticized the team's lack of creativity and poor performance in both attacking and defensive play.

He also pointed out that several key players, including Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford, are underperforming, putting excessive pressure on them to carry the team. Robinson emphasized the importance of maintaining confidence and momentum after a strong performance, which Manchester United failed to do.

Overall, Robinson's analysis of Manchester United's performance underscores the team's ongoing challenges and the need for significant improvement in order to achieve consistent success.
