Burnley Face Off Against Man United in Key Top-Flight Encounter
The former manager's spell at the Red Devils was widely regarded as a significant letdown. By any measure, his performance is remarkable for all the negative reasons. In the Premier League era, not a single Man Utd boss has managed fewer points per game, or managed a league finish as disappointing as 15th place. Examining the archives, you have to return to the manager Frank O'Farrell in 1972 to find a United boss who was defeated in a higher percentage of fixtures. Additionally, he infamously etched his name in club lore by experiencing a final loss to Spurs, namely the current side of the North London club.
The game, though, is not often so straightforward. In spite of the criticism of his tactical approach, he exits a squad in a significantly improved condition than the one he took over. In a prior match this term, following a defeat of Brighton, Danny Welbeck reported that his colleagues were lauding United as the finest opposition they had played against in a long time. Their play in a thrilling high-scoring tie with Bournemouth was equally promising and thrilling.
Even though it is hard to dispute the dismissal—particularly given it was allegedly sparked by his comments about superiors with poorer histories—his exit was in the end hampered by awful fortune. If injuries to vital personnel not occurred alongside the unavailability of other important individuals, he might remain in the role—perhaps succeeding.
Fletcher Takes the Reins
Consequently, Darren Fletcher inherits a fairly positive situation. Important players like Mason Mount, Bruno Fernandes, and Mainoo are back to fitness, while Amad Diallo and Mbeumo will shortly return from the Africa Cup of Nations. Simply prudent husbandry of this gifted squad should be sufficient to secure a fifth-place finish and, with it, European football for the coming campaign—most likely in the elite Champions League.
Burnley's Daunting Challenge
Burnley, though, won't make things easy. Despite boasting only twelve points and having lost 3 of their last five matches, their showings have often been better than the outcomes suggest. Head coach Scott Parker will surely have his team fired up to take the game to the visitors who are set to start an starting eleven that has never played together, set up in a formation they have gone without for more than a year.
