First Goal
AWB is left in a situation where he has to pick between going across to his man, or continue to mark Maguires man along side Maguire
This awful decision leads to the first goal within 2 minutes
Angelino was always going to be the target of the ball

and Wan Bissaka lacks the defensive decision making to drift wide and spread the line out
I’ve left a bit longer of the clip to show how Leipzig built up their play from the back

This isn’t solely on AWB, but rather how left focussed we were in this play
The team evidently lacks coaching for defending in a 5
The team seemed to forget shape and track the ball leaving what should’ve been a 2v2, but awbs decision led to a free man, and the goal

[Non Goal Mistakes]
AWB at first does really well, assuming in a position like this, they most likely score
But while he gains on his man he doesn’t attempt a tackle and Angelino gets a shot away
This shot is saved, but it was a dangerous opportunity to give away

You would think AWB would learn his lesson with the first goal but unfortunately not
Once again look at how Leipzig build up their attack from the back
Truly fantastic

2-0
Two errors I would like to draw your attention to
The truly awful positioning and secondly the lacklustre attempt to stop the cross

When Leipzig are passing as well as they are you would assume the United players would get tighter, but no
They leave a few men free outside the box, Angelino free on the right with AWB nowhere to be seen
But this trio cause the goal with a two pass switch

First of all, how poor awbs positioning is
He should be sat here however drifts inwards, unlike the first case, to mark no one in particularly
Last time he was dragged out by a runner but this time it’s on his own accord

This isn’t just on Wan Bissaka, rather the whole line but this is simply not good enough
When he gets over to his man in a 1v1 situation, a situation he’s usually applauded for, he seems to jog over
It doesn’t appear like he tries to win the ball

This all coming to get her leads to this goal, yet another chance created because Leipzig refused to give up and looked for the spare man to pass to
Then we have this.......
Look, he had a particularly poor game and was at fault for the loss mostly, but I’m not sure it was right to take him off
We needed more attackers on, and the idea to switch from a back five to a back four and bring on Fosu Mensah was idiotic when we are chasing a game
