Manchester United have had the Champions League luck behind them ever since the beginning of this season winning 3 out of their 4 matches without spearing any team on the Group H table (Except Basaksehir). However, recklessness and unprofessional attitude of throwing away chances and misusing opportunities have ever been the order of the day of the Red devils. Manchester United could have qualified if they had shown more care towards their first match against the Turkish side, Istanbul Basaksehir but their ON and OFF kind of playing attitude made them watch their 3 precious points taken away in the front of their face by a team they would have defeated if just a little dedication is shown to the match.

Ok they were able to right their wrong when they met Basaksehir the second leg beating the Turkish side 4 goals to 1, but while doing all these, Leipzig, the German team that was mercilessly defeated by the Red Devils beat Istanbul Basaksehir in a very tough match and were able to stand on the table with the same points as United. All that was required of United yesterday is but just a little struggle to hold down PSG and gain a point even thought it's so obvious that they have what it takes to send the French club home with no points. But the symptom of carelessness have made them see another 3 points stolen away right in the front of their nose.

Every players can be sometime very reckless, they can do a lot of unnecessary stuffs especially at an unbelievable moments such as Fred did yesterday. But what about a manager who's expected to do the best thing to make sure everything is balanced in his team?. It's so very obvious that what Fred did yesterday is nothing but a red card offence, but it was waved by the referee and a yellow card was issued to him. Knowing that Fred is the only midfielder on the pitch who's capable of marking the most, it's to be expected that he'll surely go for a tackle that might surely put him into another trouble. And considering this after managing him through the early half, all fans expected him to be substituted in the second half.

Michael Owen, former Manchester United shooter thinks Fred is pathetic for putting his team at risk with such an action and claimed he would never make him see the pitch again if he were to be his coach. But also blames Solskjear for not avoiding the red card for him after being pardoned by the ref in the first half having the likes of Van De Beek, Pogba to mention a few sitting on the bench.

Personally I think all players can be caught up in an action like that. Even The legend himself (Zinedine Zidane) couldn't control himself but had to knod the chest of Marco Materazzi. So as a coach, the best that's expected of you is to replace Fred to avoid any imbalance in such a very important match when you have the likes of Van De Beek and of course Pogba, who have returned. But instead, he added to the strength of his critics and more doubts in the mind of Manchester United fans about his capability.
