The Tactics Show: Calm, Control, Hoof It

#923 | Ed and Dharnish take the mic to dissect United’s composed weekend win. The pair dig into what’s changed tactically - from the defensive shape to a noticeable shift in pressing and long ball strategy. There’s praise for Mason Mount’s role in midfield and for Bruno Fernandes’ disciplined positioning, plus a look at how debutant Senne Lemmens brought a rare sense of calm between the posts. The conversation turns toward Anfield - what tweaks could Amorim make, who keeps their place, and how United might carry this new-found control into the biggest test yet. Chapters 00:00 Introduction
