The Tactics Show: Set Pieces, Wing Backs and Squad Dynamics
Episode 942
Monday, 1 December, 2025
#942 | Ed, Daniel and Dharnish break down the 2-1 win over Crystal Palace with a focus on what actually drove the result. The first half offered little control or invention. The second half looked sharper but still exposed the same structural problems that keep holding United back. They examine the setup, the halftime tweaks, and why the team continue to lean so heavily on set pieces for threat. There’s a detailed look at Bruno’s role, Lisandro Martinez’s influence on the back line, and why the wingback positions remain such a drag on the system. Injuries, profiles, and mismatched roles all come into play. The episode wraps with a frank look at recruitment. What profiles are missing, what could fix the open play issues, and which moves in the next windows would actually move the squad toward something coherent. 00:00 Introduction 00:52 Match overview 02:02 First half 03:23 Lineup and approach 05:18 Player profiles and performances 08:14 Second half changes 11:05 Defence and Martinez 16:30 Wingback issues 19:07 Open play chance creation 21:58 Squad needs and transfer ideas 24:46 Set pieces 29:15 Closing thoughts If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.
