"The Club World Cup helped me personally get to know the guys better. It would have been different with a normal summer pre-season. We were together in one place for a longer period of time - that helped me get to know everyone better. I feel very, very comfortable and have settled in really well," Tah said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Manchester United, the spotlight of this report, is currently placed 5th in the Premier League and has appointed Michael Carrick to coach the team till the end of the season after sacking Ruben Amorim. Usually, few clubs rival Bayern Munich when it comes to changing coaches as if they were used underwear, but Manchester United can give them a run for their money. Unfortunately, changing coaches has never seemed to fix what seems to be more of a systemic issue in Manchester.
It was a huge upset, right? Right? Whether you find it maddening or irresistible, MLS's fine margins remain a key part of the league. Even against the best of the best, like last year's Miami team that set a single-season points record, struggling teams still have a chance to win thanks to closely controlled roster rules designed to maintain parity.
Our resilience was fantastic, otherwise we couldn't survive, he said. Last season we lost 5-1; today we were close. It's by far one of the best teams in Europe. I would prefer to play another way, but when we play a lot of games in 10 years [as City manager], the teams defend deep, deep, deep and take a result of fantastic performance, mindset, strategy and the other one.
