Manchester United's defensive woes are evident as they've conceded 12 goals in their first nine matches. Space in the box, lack of aggression, and poor marking are recurring issues.
In the case of Danny Welbeck’s goal against Man Utd, Harry Maguire’s hesitance allowed a cross to find an unmarked Kaoru Mitoma, who assisted the goal with ease.
Poor communication and awareness were highlighted when Casemiro's ill-timed pass against Liverpool led to a swift counter, showcasing how vulnerability at the back has become a trademark for United.
Despite boasting experienced defenders like Matthijs de Ligt, the inability to recognize surroundings during crucial moments resulted in two unmarked Brighton players scoring after a lack of clearance.
