Jonathan David loves Manchester United, but the Red Devils are discouraged because of their inconsistent tactics

Football

David wants to go to Manchester United but Manchester United is not very interested, and this situation is actually very common in the transfer market. From a technical perspective, Amorin's concerns do make sense. The Portuguese coach's tactical system is very demanding on the striker. He not only needs to be able to score goals, but also needs strong physical confrontation and air superiority advantages.

David's 25 goals and 12 assists are indeed impressive, especially his performance in the Champions League are impressive. But the problem behind the data is also obvious: a 29% success rate of air confrontation is indeed a hidden danger in high-intensity leagues like the Premier League. Premier League defenders are generally tall and fierce in their confrontation, and this weakness will be infinitely amplified.

From the perspective of tactical adaptability, it is reasonable that Amorin prefers Giokelez. The two of them cooperated very successfully at Sporting Lisbon and understood each other's technical and tactical characteristics. Giokelez's physical condition and playing style are more in line with the rhythm of the Premier League, and this kind of "master-apprentice reunion" transfer often has a higher success rate.

For David, the advantage of freedom is obvious, but when choosing a team, you cannot just look at the reputation of the club. It is more important to find a platform that suits your characteristics. His technical characteristics may have better room for performance in Serie A or La Liga. After all, there is more emphasis on technical cooperation and the requirements for physical confrontation are relatively low. Manchester United's rejection may be the beginning of another opportunity.
