Here's another top transfer signing made by Manchester United, Aaron Wan Bissaka on a five-year deal for £45m plus £5m in add-ons. The best young player for Crystal Palace.
Who is Aaron Wan Bissaka?
He is a former Crystal Palace player as a right back with 42 appearances, season 2016-2019.Aaron Wan-Bissaka key stats for season 2018-2019 as a right back.
He also represents England U21 and involved in the European Under 21 Championship. But unfortunately, England failed to qualify to the next round.
Why Manchester United Need Him?
A little background, Man Utd have been struggling in their defensive line for season 2017-2018, conceding 54 goals that's absolutely abysmal.
Their main problem at their defensive line were the right back and the centre back.
The second issue is Manchester United under their new manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer needs transfer signings of players that are young, ambitious and hungry to play for one of the biggest football club.
So, Aaron Wan Bissaka fits into Manchester United's transfer description.
The most intriguing stats I find above is 90 Most Take-Ons Completed.
Why is the Most Take-Ons Completed important?
This means that the football player, Aaron Wan Bissaka, is brave and willing to take the football opponents on.
For the past six English Premier League(EPL) seasons, Manchester United have been more tactical in their approach on opponents. The players are more cautious with their passes and movements, which diminishes their confidence to take-on players.
Until Ole Solskjaer takes-over as caretaker manager on 22 December 2018. Manchester United's football philosophy have gradually changed, current players mindset have gradually change and more willing to take-on the opponents.
That explains why Wan Bissaka's take-ons ability is crucial and fit into Manchester United's new football philosophy, playing the United Way. Along with Daniel James, I hope for more players of this type in future transfers.
Two Potential Football Strategies and Formation
We have the current formation with the current football players.
The Traditional 4-4-2
Wan Bissaka will play a typical right back. A straight forward approach, expecting him to make full-back runs and providing crosses to the forwards, Rashford and Lukaku.
The Diamond 4-3-3
Looks weird? Here both players, Matic and Wan Bissaka will act as Defensive Midfielder roles. Their aim is to provide extra security to the attacking creative midfielder, Paul Pogba as an example.
The reason is because both have tremendous interception skills, in particular, Wan Bissaka has 84 Most Interceptions. That's a crucial attribute for a defensive midfielder.
Another important attribute is the take-ons. The take-on means a player willing to run and get past at their opponents. as mentioned above, Wan Bissaka has 90 take-ons completed. His skill could become useful in creating space and involve in one-two movements.
That's about it. Be sure to check out my footy vlog.
Have a good day!
